Chapter 10

William sat in the back seat of the Maybach, with his assistant, Stanley Zoro, driving him.

Winter in Osmo was exceptionally cold. Currently, the whole city was ravaged by raging wind and snow.

The road heading to the Wilson residence was partially cordoned off, leaving only one lane open and

causing a traffic jam.

"What's going on?"

Stanley spoke with admiration, "It seems that a little boy fell into the water, and a little girl who knows how to swith jumped in to pull him ashore. They're bringing the two children up now."

"That girl is really brave to jump into a freezing river like that. Just thinking about it makes me feel cold."

As the car passed the section that was cordoned off, William felt his headache intensify.

A child's voice rang in his mind. "Mister, don't be scared. I'll help you swim across. Let's make a promise. When I grow up, you'll marry me."

"Okay, I won't break my promise."

Some fragmented memories surfaced in his mind.

A thin little girl was holding his hand and helping him swim to shore, using all her strength to pull him up. Her whole body was soaked, and her eyes were remarkably clear. It was as if they could pierce through

his heart.

Who was she? Was it the little girl that rescued him when he was young? But where was she now? She told him her name, but William couldn't remember it.

Suddenly, Linda's face flashed before his eyes.

Could it be...

Clenching his fists tightly, William felt his heart tremble as if the softest part of it was hit hard.

Could the memories he lost really be connected to Linda? Had she never lied to him?

William recalled many past scenes, and how Ida always stammered when she talked about the incident, while Linda could speak clearly about it.

His expression grew serious as he took out his phone to send Linda a text message. He needed to ask her face-to-face.

At that moment, the Wilson residence was in chaos. When William returned, Ida and the household staff were anxiously waiting for him.
