A Love Forgotten Novel by Webfic
Chapter 26

I nodded. My body’s memory seemed to stop at the age of 18. That was when my brother, Jonathan, first started taking over Dad’s company.

The brother who used to play with me and indulge my every whim had become someone I rarely saw after that.

I tugged at Logan’s sleeve and asked, “Did my brother mention when he’s returning?”

“Are you truly that desperate to see him?” he asked.

I immediately nodded.

Logan looked at me for a while before averting his gaze. “He said it might be another month before he returns. The new company abroad has just been established. He still needs to negotiate an acquisition deal.”

He added, “International acquisitions are quite complicated and can take a long time. You should be prepared for that.”

I started feeling anxious. “Where is he? I can go and see him once I recover!”

Logan gently smiled and comforted me, saying, “Alright. We’ll arrange for you to see your brother once you’ve fully recovered. Don’t worry, I’ll take care of it.”

1 beamed in excitement and couldn’t help but tug at his sleeve back and forth. “Okay. Promise me, you’ll take me abroad to see him when the time comes.”

Just then, I suddenly noticed something strange about Logan’s expression as I tugged at his sleeve. I was slightly stunned before I realized that my gesture felt slightly intimate.

I awkwardly let go of his sleeve and said, “I’m sorry. I… I didn’t mean to…”

Logan smiled and eased the awkwardness. “It’s fine. I know you see me as your brother too. You also used to act like this with your brother when you were little. Your brother had no choice but to give in to

you.

“I remember you once cried as you claimed the Moon Lady had fallen into the lake and insisted for him to save her.”

He continued, “He was at his wit’s end and jumped into the lake to pretend to rescue the Moon Lady. He wasn’t a great swimmer back then and ended up swallowing a lot of lake water. He even vomited several times when he came ashore.”

My face flushed with embarrassment, and my toes curled against the floor. I seemed to vaguely remember that story.

I was a kid back then and used to watch a children’s program on TV where the host called herself the Moon Lady.

I watched her so often that I grew fond of her and would say that the Moon Lady was up in the sky whenever I saw the moon. Then, I started crying when I saw the moon reflected in the lake once.

Logan crniled faintly as he looked at my flushed and embarrassed face. He said, “You were quite adorable as a child. You were chubby like a rice ball. Not only did your brother dote on you, but so did all your relatives and friends”

Upon hearing that, I felt something stirring inside me. It was as if memories from my childhood which had been long forgotten seemed to be awakened.

I suddenly asked, “How old was I back then?”

Logan gestured with his hand. “I think you’re about seven or eight. Your brother is seven years older than you.

I asked again, “Are you the same age as my brother?”

Logan glanced at me with an unreadable look. “I’m not that old.”

I was stunned. My brother was seven years older than me, so surely Logan was around his age? Shouldn’t he be 32 now?

However, Logan didn’t continue the conversation further. Instead, he told me to go downstairs for dinner and that the maid had made me some nourishing chicken soup.

I was puzzled as I went downstairs for the meal. Logan truly didn’t seem that busy. In fact, as I had my meal, he was casually watching the news on the TV.

I couldn’t help but watch his silhouette from behind as late.

How could this man look so youthful and mature at the same time? And what surprised me even more was that this man didn’t seem to have a nightlife!

I had been observing Logan over the past few days. He would either meet with important clients for work or stay home watching TV and reading magazines or newspapers.

Who still watched TV these days anyway? Wasn’t it typical for young people these days to scroll through short videos or watch miniseries?

Shouldn’t Logan sit in front of his computer and monitor the global stock market if he was such an intellectual?

Shouldn’t he be capable of making the stock market across the ocean fluctuate by a few points with just

a click of his mouse?

I just couldn’t wrap my head around it. It truly confused me.
