Ian was dumbfounded.

Seeing that he was not moving, Susan threw herself at him. She wrapped her arms around him and buried her head in his neck groggily.

Purring like a cat in its dream, she pleaded with him piteously, "Ian, I was wrong. D-Don't run away again, please? It was all my fault. I'll never back down again. Let's be together happily from now on, hmm?"

Ian was thunderstruck.

He was as motionless as a statue, and his mind went blank. He could neither hear nor sense anything.

What's the matter with her? What did she mean?

Why did she plead with me not to run away and to be together happily from now? I'm her nephew. Isn't it preposterous for her to say so?

Her words had stirred ten magnitude turbulence in the young man's mind. Having lost some snippets of his memory, he was utterly overwhelmed.

"Ian, you're back." Right then, a familiar voice sounded behind him.

It was none other than Sigrun, who had surprisingly stayed up late to wait for them.

Ian came to his senses in an instant. He was about to pull Susan away from his arms and push her into the car.
