Chapter 1007

Chloe went still.

She stared at the man in front of her, completely thrown off guard.

Before she could say a word, Connor pulled her into a tight embrace. "Chloe, you can forget everything else, but how could you forget me?"

Connor had always thought of himself as a rational guy. Especially after running into Chloe again. He'd spent hours thinking things through, weighing every option. After talking with Lucas, he finally made a choice: he wouldn't tell Chloe the truth -not yet. He was scared. Scared that if Chloe knew, she'd choose her comfortable, ordinary life over him. So, he wanted to take it slow, slip quietly back into her world, hoping her memories would come back on their own.

But after just two days with her, listening to her talk about her happy little family, how perfect her life was he just couldn't take it anymore.

He broke down, clutching Chloe and crying like he hadn't in years.

Chloe's whole body tensed up. She stood there, stiff as a board, letting him hold her. Her hands hung awkwardly in the air, unsure what to do.

This wasn't the first time he'd hugged her. Honestly, it should have felt wrong, way out of line. But instead of feeling angry or violated, Chloe felt her heart twist. Seeing him so devastated, so utterly lost, made something inside her ache.

She didn't know why his pain cut so deep, like it was her own.
