Chapter 154: Forget
Rose was utterly speechless to hear all about it. Her mother had just told her that she had been lying to her all along. The lie was about her father, who died when she was still in the womb. And all the photos of her father were burned.
However, what her mother said after that made Rose even more confused,
"All this time, I didn’t say anything about your father. That’s because I lost some of my memories of the past... I don’t remember anything about him."
Molly’s words are like thunder in Rose’s ear. How could her mother lose her memories of her past life with her father? It doesn’t make sense at all. In fact, Rose thought her mother was discussing the plot of the short story she was going to write.
Right now, Rose has completely lost her ability to string words. She could only silently listen to her mother like she was listening to an audiobook.
"When I just graduated from college, I went on vacation with my college friends. During that vacation, I met a man. This man is handsome and kind. I immediately liked him the first time I saw him, and so did he. We are attracted to each other. We had only known each other briefly, but it felt like we had known each other for many years. Something between us made us end up spending our day together...mmm... I mean our night together." Molly could not continue her words, too shy to tell her daughter what happened that night.
Rose can’t believe what she hears right now. She can feel her cheek turn warm hearing how her parents got her, gosh!
"M-Mom, so... you said you had a one-night stand with that man?"
Molly nodes quickly. "That night was the best night for me, Rose. To tell you the truth, he is the only man I spend a night with for my entire life...."
