Ingrid sobbed as she pounded on Ned's chest.
Ned sat there without moving and watched as Ingrid fell to her knees, drained of all strength. His eyes were red.
"Ned!"
Ingrid had finished crying. She suddenly pulled herself together and grabbed his hand.
"Let's give each other another chance! We'll set a time limit to be a buffer period for us. Let's give ourselves two months so that we can end on a good note.
"I won't bother you if you're still firm on your decision after two months and want to cancel our wedding. But you've got to work with me for the next two months!"
Ned remained silent, so she said, "When Angie woke up and asked you to work with her, you agreed. Ned… I'm not asking for much. It's just two months—not two years. You owe me this!"
Ned didn't think two months or two years made much difference.
As his memories gradually returned, he only felt his love for Angeline growing.
The more he recalled about the past, the more he found himself unable to let go of Angeline.
After meeting Angeline, every second of his life had been about her. It had been that way for over ten years.
As he had said once, she was more important than his life. She was Ned's everything.
"Okay," Ned answered.
…
Angeline had been reading the information docket on the families of the board of directors and the high-level executives. It was already nighttime when she received Marion's call. Marion said that she and Alva had already returned to Cloudsville.
Marion was eager for gossip, so she couldn't resist asking Angeline, "Tell me the truth. How far have you gone with that guy who took you away from the Night Palace that night?"
At the mention of Sean, Angeline couldn't help thinking about how he had sent her home with a driver last night.
