For some reason, I didn’t doubt anything Gabrielle said. I just trusted her without question
She led me straight to the wine cer. When she opened the door, I was so stunned that my mouth dropped open.
“Is this a winery Lasked in disbelief.
Gabrielle sindled. “You really forgot everything. There was a time when you and Jonathan were close. He personally taught you how to make wine. This winery was even designed especially for your”
Her words felt distant and strange to me.
I rubbed my temples. “Didn’t you say we didn’t get along? Lalmost tried to kill myself because of him. How could we have been close?
Gabrielle’s eyes flickered for a moment before sheposed herself and said, “That was right after you got married. You two were doing well back then. It wasn until Alicia showed up that the tights began.”
She paused, then added, “Honestly, that makes sense. If you hadn’t liked each other at all in the beginning, you wouldn’t have gotten married.”
“I really want to know why I married Jonathan in the first ce,” I said, looking at her in confusion. “We barely even knew each other”
Back then, I had secretly liked Jonathan but never had the courage to make a move.
1 was just like many other girls who admired him from <b>atar</b>. I could only watch him from a distance because I knew I wasn’t the wealthy, beautiful type. Gabrielle shook her head. “I don’t know how you two met, but when you started dating, you already <b>nned </b>to get married. You even sent me an invitation.” “oh“I mumed.
“Why don’t you ask <b>than</b>? cubdelle suppested.
1 shook my head. “That’s impossible. If I ask him, he’ll realize lost my memory, and the divorce will getplicated.”
Gabnelle nodded. “That’s true…”
She held my arm and walked inside. “Pick whatever you want: There are lots of wines in here that you and Jonathan made together. I <b>heard </b>you even registered <b>a </b>brand, but it was just for fun”
I couldn’t help but sigh. “He really is rich..”
Gabrielle nodded, “1 heard this wine cer alone is worth 200 million <b>dors</b>.”
I stared at her with my mouth wide open. “What? 200 million dors? Itve to give Jonathan 100 million dors for our divorce<b>, </b>and this winery is worth 200 million dors, then he’s clearly not after my money.”
As I stepped further iraide, I waspletely blown away. The cer was nearly as big <b>as </b>a small vi. Bottles of every <bnd </b>and shape filled the endless rows.
I walked over to a safe and felt strange mix of familiarity and distance.
“What’s wrong?” Gabrielle asked, walking toward me
I shook my head. “This wine <b>is </b>called <b>First </b>Love?
I read thebel beside it. The elegant golden script made it seem soleman and sacred the bottle was even locked inside <b>a </b><b>sale</b>.
“I’ll tak=(liis one,” I said, “It must be high–end<b>. </b>I’ll give it to Frederick. He’ll probably ept it.”
Gabrielle looked at me in surprise. “Are you sure?
1 nced at her<b>, </b>sensing she was hesitant.
She lowered her <b>voice </b><b>and </b>said, “Jonathan <b>gave </b><b>you </b>that wine and locked it in the safe for a reason. It must mean something important. Are you sure you don’t want
I raised an eyebrow, “I tell him, do you think I can still give it away?”
I swugged. “Ulir gets mad and divorces over this, that works out perfectly for me”
Galicielle stared at me silently and glied. “You really have changed since your memory loss. Even your personality <b>has </b>changed.”
I couldn’t help but reply, “Why don’t you just say <b>I </b>clunged after manying Jonathan? l’en just back to being myself now.”
I didn’t care il jonathan got <b>upset</b>. If he was angry, then so be it–let
Why couldn’t following own heat?
