Heather suddenly became stunned.

"I will definitely lose to you," Li Sinian repeated, "that’s why you are stronger than Lucia."

Li Sinian was not a person who would say sweet nothings, but at this moment Heather knew he was speaking from the heart.

But he didn’t know that to her, what seemed like a trivial comment sounded so much like a love confession, stirring and fluttering her heart.

Heather didn’t know how to respond for a moment, and turned her gaze to the broken egg-shaped chair, sighing, "It’s a shame about this chair; I really liked it."

She wouldn’t have liked such fanciful things in the past, but now she really does.

"I will have someone install a new one immediately, throughout the entire castle, so you can rest whenever you want while you’re walking."

"I really want to live an ordinary life, to wake up without remembering the past, only remembering that I am just an ordinary woman. If the side effects of K really include memory loss, a complete memory loss, that would be great."

"That’s not good," Li Sinian said.

"Why not?"

"Because even I would be gone from your memory. Manman, if you forget me, I will punish you, and that’s unforgivable."

He still liked to call her Manman, having done so for so many years, and had no intention of changing. Everyone could call her Heather, but if he did so, it would feel strange and unfamiliar.

He told Heather that he preferred Chinese names over Western names because when calling his beloved, he could use her repeated name as a nickname, which felt more intimate and close.

"No, Xiao Man’s life has already ended, I shouldn’t call you Manman anymore. Shall we use a new name? To start a new life."

"What name?" There was a hint of anticipation in her eyes.

"Heather."

She burst out laughing, "Isn’t that still the same?"

"Not the same. Before you were Hathaway; now you are Heather, with the surname Hai. Heather Hai, it’s a lovely name."

Strictly speaking, Heather didn’t have a name. Heather was the surname she shared with her sister Helena. Her sister was Helena Heather, and since she was not named immediately after birth, over time, Heather became her name by default, and many people thought that was her only name, presuming she had no surname.

Of course, none of this mattered to her anymore.

"Heather..." she murmured these three characters, smiling, "With the surname Hai... now I have both a first and last name."

"Yes, my Weiwei."

Heather laughed out loud.

Li Sinian called her Weiwei several times, repeatedly getting used to her new name.

...

One day, Li Sinian could not find Heather.

After searching for over ten minutes upon his return, his expression gradually turned dark and terrifying, and a fearsome aura emanated from him that no one dared to approach or speak to him.

At that time, the whole castle was in a state of panic; how could a person just disappear without a trace?

Particularly... the woman whom the leader cared about the most!

The situation put everyone on edge, even Lake was panicked. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Heather’s disappearance was the worst possible news for them.

Half an hour passed, and Li Sinian finally confirmed that she was not in the castle.

Li Sinian brought in people from Lucia’s faction for questioning, and Lucia’s expression had never been so uneasy: "Leader! I swear, I really didn’t do anything to Heather."
