- Chapter 91: He Forgot
- Vivian’s expression faltered. She looked at Sophia, her eyes dark and cold. After a moment, she let out a wry laugh, taking the book from Sophia’s hands,
- “Consider it a story,”
- “Clearly, it’s not,” Sophia replied.
- I’m not the crazy woman in the book”
- “But I’m a woman who appeared in Sean’s life.”
- Vivian was silent for a moment, then her smile vanished. She spoke earnestly, If you want to know about his past, I can tell you.”
- Sophia shook her head.“I can ask him. I don’t need to hear it from someone else.”
- “What if he forgot?”
- Sophia frowned.“What did you say?”
- Vivian turned the pages of the book, sighing. “The male protagonist in this book, because of the car accident, lost his fiancée and suffered both physical and psychological trauma, developing a mental condition. He forgot everything about his fiancée, his past self. But it’s not a complete forgetting; the memories of the deceased suddenly resurface, tormenting him and those around
- him.”
- “You mean Sean…”
- “I’m talking about the male protagonist in the book, Vivian said, shrugging with a faim smile.“You may not know, but even novels based on real events include artistic interpretation.”
- Sophia turned her head, lowering her gaze. Her expression remained calm, but her heart was in turmoil.
- So Sean had a mental condition. He wasn’t deliberately hiding his fiancée; he’d forgotten. That explained the strange behavior she’d witnessed, and Sophia’s uncle’s resentment towards Sean’s apparent cruelty.
- “What was that paper you gave Sean last night?” Sophia asked.
- Vivian raised an eyebrow.“I thought you’d ask about him and his fiancée.”
- “I said if I wanted to know about his past, I’d ask him directly.”
- “Fine. I didn’t really want to talk about it either; it’s a scar for me, too.” Vivian paused. “That was a psychological evaluation from a doctor in America. They recommended regular check–ups.”
- “Why check–ups?”
- “You don’t think he’s a normal person, do you?”
- “Of course, he is.”
- “Well, you haven’t seen him during an episode.”
- An episode?
- Sophia looked at Vivian, unable to imagine the scene.
- Vivian let out a breath. “It’s terrifying. Even though I loved him, I had to let him go
- Chloe came down the stairs, so excited she didn’t notice Vivian
- “Sophia, I got the part! They want me!”
- Sophia composed herself, pulling Chloe anide
- introduce her
- Hearing that Vivian was the screenwriter and producer, Chloe became nervous, bowing slightly to shake Vivian’s hand.
- Vivian smiled at her. Ms. Lane, I look forward to working with you. Well that beer”
- Vivian shook hands with Chloe then turned to Sophia..
- “Mrs. Sullivan, see you later.”
- She went upstairs.
- Sophia saw the book still on the chair and picked it up.
- “Oh, by the way, the book is for you, Mrs. Sullivan, Vivian called down from the stairs, her expression enigmatic.
- Sophia put the book back on the shelf, smiling slightly. Thank you for the offer, Ms. White, but I’m not in the mood to read it right now.”
- “Very well. The truth is often unpleasant.”
- Leaving Vivian’s studio, Chloe was still thrilled.
- “You don’t know how nervous I was. I even forgot my lines! But the assistant director was really nice, giving me time to calm down and redo my performance. I don’t think I did my best, but thankfully I got the part.”
- Sophia responded but was preoccupied with Vivian’s words, hardly hearing Chloe. “Did you pull strings for me?”
- “Huh?”
- Sophia snapped back to attention. Believe in your acting skills.”
- Chloe hugged Sophia’s arm. I’m confident in my acting, but in this industry, talent isn’t enough; you need connections. Sophia, thank you for being my connection.”
- Sophia smiled. “My pleasure.”
- Tree invited them both to his bar for drinks, but Sophia wasn’t in the mood, so she sent Chloe and went home.
- Leaving the subway, Sophia walked against the biting winter wind.
- She didn’t know how to face Sean–pretend she didn’t know or confront him? Pretending would be self–deception. Confronting him might shatter their lives.
- How could she choose?
- At the crossroads, the elderly woman rushed towards her.
- “Ms. Ella, Ms. Ella, can you help me?”
- Her hair was disheveled, her shirt wet, and her lower lip bleeding. She clasped her hands, pleading-

- Sophia immediately followed the woman.
- The walk wasn’t short. By the time they reached a dilapidated apartment building, several minutes had passed.
- Meaning her son had been underwater for at least ten minutes.
- This….
- “Why didn’t you ask someone else for help?”
- Anyone would have been better than her running so far to beg Sophia’s assistance.
- “No one would help me,” the woman said hoarsely. “They think we’re dirty, won’t even set foot in my house.”
- The woman entered the apartment; Sophia followed.
- A pungent smell of urine hit Sophia; the small apartment was crammed with junk, like a garbage dump. She understood the woman’s statement now; no wonder the neighbors avoided them. woman into the bathroom. Sophia quickly glanced around, hurrying after the
