Anderson squinted his eyes. The last time he discussed this issue with his parents, it was highly likely that Westbrook was suffering from psychological selective amnesia.
Putting down the book in his hand, Westbrook noticed Anderson and stood up, walking towards him.
"I saw you in the hospital before, Anderson," Westbrook remarked after appraising him. His gaze was clear and his tone much more polite than before.
Anderson nodded. "Hmm, you seem to have fully recovered."
Pointing to his head, Westbrook said, "The wound is still healing, but the stitches haven't been removed yet. It's just covered by my hair, so you can't see it."
Kiki leaned in, "We just got back to school. It was so boring staying at home these days. Luckily, my mom was always with me. In my memory, the time she spent with me from childhood till now doesn't even add up to this one incident."
Kiki spoke with a smile on her lips, looking grateful. After the last ordeal, her mother no longer demanded strictness from her, giving her a love she had never experienced before, soothing the traumas from her captivity.
Westbrook, being particularly nice to Kiki, said, "I've brought you a little snack, it's in your desk. Remember to eat if you're hungry. You should eat less breakfast at home from now on. We have delicious food, with dozens of varieties made by our chef every morning. Not like your house, where you have milk bread sandwiches every day."
"Okay, my mom likes a simple life. I've actually gotten tired of it. Thanks." Kiki accepted graciously, having gone through hardship with Westbrook, and now that his personality had changed, she didn't dislike him as much. She accepted his kindness willingly.
Turning to Anderson, Westbrook said, "Although I don't remember you, I've heard a lot about you from many people, including my brother, sister-in-law, and other classmates. They all say you're talented. Can I be friends with you?"
Anderson was taken aback. He never thought a day would come where Westbrook would want to be friends with him. They had almost been unable to coexist in the same classroom before.
Without answering, Anderson remained silent. Westbrook became anxious and said, pleadingly, "I'll bring you snacks every day too, okay?"
Shaking his head, Anderson replied, "I don't need them."
Feeling awkward, Westbrook hesitated, "I heard from other classmates that our relationship wasn't good in the past. If I did anything wrong before, please forgive me. I'm sorry. I promise to get along well with everyone, including you."
Anderson was surprised. It seemed that Westbrook not only had amnesia, but had also forgotten his own character. He had changed completely.
Without closing the conversation, Anderson said, "I like peace and quiet. I won't bother you, so please don't bother me."
Returning to his seat, Anderson ignored the others and took out his miniature computer to fiddle with.
Pulling Westbrook's sleeve, Kiki said, "He's just like that. Not hitting you is already polite."
Acknowledging her, Westbrook went back to his seat excitedly and continued reading his book.

The readers' comments on the novel: Wrong marriage and sweet love (Joyce and Luther)
If this is the ending of this story the story then I wish I hadn’t started reading it doesn’t even end right has not closure. To bad these writers don’t put much into their endings....
When will the new chapters come I can't wait any longer...
Very strange ending, is Joyce pregnant again or does she still have remnants of the devil with her. Christian should have apologized and made up with Luther and Felix. Too much violence and twists and turns, once settled, everyone should be happy and healthy....
Omg… can’t you just let Luther and Joyce live in peace with their children….another controversy doesn’t add to the story....
Not again, ugh … just get rid of this disgusting despicable woman...
Hopefully the underground bio lab East523will be found soon and Luther will make a full recovery, Lily will be reunited with the family and all will be good. Otherwise this will be a very disappointing story....
Please don’t make more trouble for Joyce and Luther, they need to have their children and be happy...
Looking forward to Joyce shooting Otis where it will hurt him the most and end his disgusting ways with women. He’s a pig, deserves to lose his “unit”....
Just tell him you’re the one that saved him , not the evil woman and find your beautiful love story together. Quit being a wet blanket, too smart for that....
I hate it when the hero and heroine are made out to be fools for the evil people that wish to steal their lives and live. Hopefully Charlotte is found out quickly and removed. Why should a villain with an illegitimate child reap all the rewards. Terrible....
