Noelle sighed, not in disagreement, but in resignation.


    Lucinda reassured, “Cyrus really cares about you.N?velDrama.Org ? content.


    You two were deeply in love before.


    He even mes himself for your memory loss.


    I hope you’ll consider giving him another chance.


    But if you decide otherwise, it’s okay.


    It’s better to be upfront and end things sooner rather thanter.


    ”


    “I’m not nning to break up with him,” Noelle murmured, lowered her head and fidgeted with her fingers.


    “I have not been subjected to this kind of control.


    But I’m slowly adapting.


    ”


    Encouragingly, Lucinda said, “Take your time.


    There’s no rush.


    ”


    Noelle agreed, “I’ve heard you talk about our rtionship over thest four years.


    I’m curious.


    Would you mind telling me more about it? Maybe it’ll help jog my memory.


    ”


    Lucinda dly obliged.


    She recounted how they first met, described their growing bond over time, and reflected on all the ups and downs they faced together.


    Despite Lucinda’s detailed ount, Noelle remained disappointed.


    It was as if she was listening to someone else’s story, unable to recall anything, not even a single scene.


    Seeing her downcast expression, Lucinda suggested they watch thepetition together.


    Sooner thanter, they were engrossed in the game, forgetting their earlier conversation.


    As the afternoon wore on, Lucinda juggled her duties at the club before sparing a couple of


    hours for a meeting at the Simmons Group.


    After her meeting with Noelle, she decided to leave the game club and head to Simmons Group.


    But as she settled into her car, her phone rang.


    It was Gilbert.


    Lucinda answered the phone with a serious demeanor.


    Gilbert reported, “Miss Simmons, two minutes ago, Miss Diaz entered the vi.


    She’s now at the gate of the ancestral temple.


    ”


    After days of waiting, N finally made a move.


    “Let her be.


    Keep an eye on her,” Lucinda instructed.


    “Understood.


    It seems she’s not nning to leave anytime soon.


    Should I allow her entry into the ancestral temple?” Gilbert inquired.


    “Let her in.


    ”


    If N was prevented from interacting with Graham, Lucinda couldn’t uncover the truth she sought.


    With determination, Lucinda started the car, turned the wheel, and raced to Peace Mountain.

    N peered through the crack in the door to the ancestral temple.


    Inside, Graham was still on his knees, focused on copying the scriptures.


    A small tea table was provided in front of him.
