Olivia’s subconscious told her not to go into the room. The hand she placed on the doorknob froze.
A warm hand enveloped the back of her hand. Ethan whispered gently, “Don’t be afraid. I’m here with
you.”
The door was opened. There were no monsters. There was no blood. It was just a pink room with all its
furnishings removed,
The room was almost empty except for a carpet and some baby toy decorations that hadn’t been taken
down yet.
It was clear that the room used to be a nursery.
Olivia could feel a weight on her chest, and her eyes became sore.
She walked into the empty room and stopped at the position where the crib used to be. She slowly
crouched down.
Olivia couldn’t remember anything, but her body brought her to the location reflexively.

Ethan was shocked to see what Olivia was doing. He sat down beside her and said, “A crib.”
Olivia observed the empty room as thoughts began to fill her mind.
“We had a baby?”
“Yes.”
Olivia asked with quivering lips, “Then … where’s the baby?”
“We lost it due to an unexpected premature birth.”
Although it was an established fact, Olivia’s tear ducts reacted quicker than her brain when she heard
the baby was gone.
“The baby’s gone? How could that happen? Didn’t you say I loved the baby?”
Ethan met with Olivia’s urgent gaze and stroked her hair tenderly.
“Liv, your health wasn’t the best, and there was a car accident. That’s why the premature birth
happened.”
“An accident? So, did I lose my memories because of the accident?” Olivia murmured.
“It was part of the reason. You couldn’t cope with the death of the baby and fell into depression. Then,
there was the shock of both your parents dying. That’s why you lost your memories.”
It was one blow after another. Olivia clutched her chest and said, “My parents are dead, too?”
“Yeah, Mom died from an illness, and Dad went into a coma due to an intracranial hemorrhage. The
treatment lasted for a long time, but he didn’t make it.”
Olivia held her head, unable to accept this reality.
Ethan hugged her gently and comforted her, “Don’t be afraid, Liv. You still have me. I’ll be with you
forever. We can still have babies after your body recovers.”
Olivia choked and couldn’t talk. She wanted to say something, but her mind blanked out.
If she forced herself to recall, she would have a splitting headache. She leaned in Ethan’s embrace and
tried to calm down.
She managed to calm down after a while.
“Tell me more about our past. I don’t remember anything. How did we meet?”
Ethan carried her to the window, and they lay on a soft rug. The temperature in the room was cozy

Olivia leaned on Ethan’s chest and felt his warmth. His deep and pleasing voice rang in her ear.
“11 years ago, I was lying on the floor, bloody and near death. You found me.
“You were still very young then. But you approached me with kindness even though you were scared.
“You called emergency services for me and wiped the blood off me with your handkerchief.”
Ethan couldn’t help but smile when he recalled the first time they met.
“I was almost dead, but the warm smile on your face when you left is forever engraved in my mind. I
swore to find you again to repay your kindness.”
“Then, what happened?”
“I was swamped then, and a few years passed before I went to see you.
“I went to your school to make a speech. I can still remember when I saw you on the field. You were in
your uniform, and your hair was in a ponytail.
“You looked more mature but still sunny and in the prime of your youth.”
An image flashed through Olivia’s mind.
It was a handsome man in a white shirt. But the image passed too quickly, and she couldn’t tell who the
man was.
