She paused to inhale deeply before continuing. “I’m feeling somewhat perplexed about your feelings towards me. You once expressed liking me, then later claimed you didn’t.

“Remember when you left last time? I mentioned that, we should talk about the bracelet and where we stand when we next meet. But now, with your memory loss, you don’t recall any of it. I’m considering whether it’s right to give you back your freedom at this point, since forgetting seems to be your answer already. It feels wrong to exploit your vulnerability.

George stared at her, trying to penetrate her soul. His eyes were now deeper and more enigmatic than ever, emanating an incomprehensible darkness that caused a chill down her spine.

Just as he prepared to speak, he noticed Milly standing before he rose and looking down at him in the hospital bed. “Since Mr. Tate seems reluctant to respond, may I speak on your behalf?”

Mr. Tate…

George’s lips tightened slightly. She called me Mr. Tate? It was indeed a distant address, and it made him feel uncomfortable.
