At this, Marcus’ expression underwent an instant transformation.

“Because everything feels so chaotic. I’m starting to think that I’ve lost some of my memories, and it’sas though there’s someone out there who Looks just like me. I get the sense that if I want to makesense of it all, I need to replace the person connected to Fiona who might have the answers.”

Millie turned and was startled to replace Marcus’ face had turned an ugly shade of green, veins bulging atthe back of his hand.

She was taken aback.

“Honey, is everything okay?”

Marcus’ voice was frigid as he said, “If it turns out that you have lost your memory, and Leon is the oneLooking for you, would you Leave me? Would you be with him and recall your happy past?”

“I Even if she were the one Leon was searching for, leaving Marcus for him was out of the question.There were many things in life to regret, but what was in the past had to remain there.

“Millie stammered, unable to replace the words.

She just wanted to uncover the truth. The air in the room grew heavy and uncomfortable due to theirconversation.

As she lay in bed later, Millie clutched the necklace in her hand, feeling its chill. She was aware thatMarcus wasn’t asleep.

“What’s in the past is in the past. I just want to know the truth,” she muttered.

Marcus remained silent. Millie’s lips pressed into a thin line, her fists clenched in frustration.

An uncomfortable tension hung in the air, a palpable result of the lingering awkwardness. Millie sensedthe undercurrent of Marcus” anger, anticipating that a restful night’s sleep might elude her.

On the following day, Marcus’ frustration still held sway. Millie settled on the sofa, sipping her milk in asullen manner. She attempted to mend things by offering him a glass of milk, but he declined it withouta sip.

Millie eventually stepped out. As Marcus paused in his task of tying his tie, his gaze lingered on theclosed door.

His continued agitation stemmed from his fear that Millie would seek solace in Leon’s company if shewere privy to the truth.

He couldn’t shake off his insecurity, pondering the erosion of his self-confidence and his actions drivenby a feeling of cowardice.

Millie took a day off from school, choosing instead to visit the hospital. Uncertainty about her memorygnawed at her, prompting her to undergo an examination.

“Are you here to visit grandma?” Lois’ voice interrupted Millie’s thoughts as she registered at the frontdesk.
