Chapter 187 A Secret Skill

Meanwhile, Jack had rushed over to Mikayla’s house and caught her words in time. He stopped in his tracks when he came up to her, and there was an unreadable look in his eyes. When their gazes met, it was clear to see that she was utterly confused, and he could not see a trace of recognition registering on her face.

“Oh, you’re here,” Elise said, drawing him from his thoughts. He turned to regard her with a look of askance.

However, Elise was at a loss for an explanation, too. After hearing Elise sigh in frustration, Jack walked up to Mikayla and asked plaintively, “Don’t you remember me?”

Mikayla’s eyes searched his face, and with a shake of her head, she inquired, “Who are you?”

Jack felt as if all the air had been sucked out of his lungs. He found himself answering without much thought. “A friend.”

Comprehension dawned on Mikayla. Then, her gaze flickered over to Elise as she pointed out, “I don’t know why, but you’re so familiar to me.”

“That’s because we’re best friends. We always will be,” Elise said firmly, clasping Mikayla’s hand in hers.

Mikayla broke into a wide smile. “Really? That’s so good to hear. I thought I had no friends at all, but as it turns out, I have both of you!”

“Mikayla…” Jack pressed his lips into a grim line, and when he tried to say something again, he paused. After a while, he added, “Get some rest. We’ll drop by to see you another day.”

A little displeased by this, Mikayla asked in a somewhat withdrawn voice, “Are you really going to visit me again?”

Elise hummed in affirmation. “We will, and we’ll definitely help you recover your memory.”

Mikayla beamed and agreed to let them leave for now. “Okay. I’ll see you guys soon, then.”
