Josephine’s fingers twitched slightly as pain flared from her palms.

Lewis lowered his head, leaning in dangerously close. His hot breath brushed against her face as he demanded, “Who did you learn it from?”

young woman frowned slightly, not understanding what sort of question that was.

Lewis didn’t bother explaining himself. Instead, he freed one of his hands so that he could force Josephine to look at him. “Oh? Do you still not recognize me?”

The latter bit her lower lip while scanning his face for a moment. After that, she looked down in disappointment.

It wasn’t as though she didn’t recognize Lewis; she just didn’t want to accept that he was Lewis.

At that moment, Josephine’s phone started ringing again.

The man stared at her pocket. Someone must be calling her on the phone now, seeing as the ringtone blared without stopping.

Lewis reached into the pocket to fish her phone out. When he looked at the screen, he saw Quintin’s name on the caller ID.

The moment he saw it, he raised his head to glance at Josephine.

As for the latter, she didn’t even react to the name. After all, she had completely forgotten about what happened yesterday. Right now, Quintin was just a stranger who was on slightly friendly terms with her.

That question took Josephine by surprise. She remembered what she had read in the notebook. earlier; a reminder was scribbled on a page, telling her to take her medicine regularly.

However, she never did that.

Lewis tilted his head. “Go take your medications.”

Josephine stared at him for a while, soon realizing that he would never let her out of the room. as long as she refused to take the medicine. Hence, she walked toward the nightstand
