Chapter 54

"What are you thinking about?" Ophelia's words yanked me out of my thoughts. I hurriedly averted my gaze. "Nothing." "Are you wondering why the person I'm marrying isn't you?" Her question caught me off guard, and I felt embarrassed. She had read my mind perfectly. I quickly tried to cover up and said, "No. It's because you told me to look ahead." Her face darkened immediately. She didn't get the answer she wanted, and I could tell she was disappointed. She wondered if it stirred something in me seeing that familiar scene and if I'd forgotten all the things we went through together. Or maybe, I just didn't want to remember? She stared at me intently. Her heart was heavy, conflicted, and even in pain. Her cold voice cut through the silence again, "You really don't remember, do you?" I knew exactly what she meant, but I couldn't admit it. Even though it hurt me deeply, I couldn't show it. How could I forget her, the person I loved with all my heart? How could I forget everything?
