Stephen mulled over it before sighing. “Fine. Come back as soon as you can.” He prayed nothing else would happen during this time.

After saying their goodbyes to Stephen, Nicole happily went back to her room to pack.

John watched Nicole and the four kids, his thoughts racing.

I wonder how Mr. Seet is going to react when he sees Mrs. Seet after so long. She hasn’t managed to regain any of her memories in the past year. Would being back in a familiar place trigger anything? If it does, what will she do? She does have an explosive temper.

“Evan, where will you two live now? At Imperial Garden or Hillside Villa?”

“Hillside Villa!” Evan answered without any hesitation.

Susan furrowed her brows and asked, “Evan, where is Imperial Garden? It sounds like an amazing place. Could we live there instead?”

Evan barely glanced at her before replying in a firm tone that brooked no argument, “No!”

Imperial Garden belonged to Nicole and nobody but her was allowed to live there. If she were to return one day, that would still be her home.

The abnormally fierce look on his face surprised Susan. She bit her lip as tears welled up in her eyes, looking incredibly pitiful.

Clenching her fingers, she repeatedly reminded herself that everything was fine. She was his wife now, and that gave her plenty of time to make him open up to her and eventually, fall in love with her.

All she needed was time.

One year later, at K Nation.

It was a sunny day. Nicole was standing in the garden, watching as Nina and Maya played around the swings while Kyle and Juan practiced their Taekwondo nearby. Inexplicably, her heart swelled with warmth.

Time had flown by so quickly. Before she knew it, the four kids had been staying with her for a year now. Strangely enough, they still seemed to have no intention of going back to their own parents.

“Hey, you four, when are you going back home?”

The children tensed as anxious expressions appeared on their faces. They began to whisper among themselves.

“Mommy is trying to shoo us away again.”

“Sigh. It’s been a year yet we still haven’t managed to make Mommy remember us. What a failure!”
