Chapter 93_ Memories 3
Charlotte’s knuckles tightened as she stared at the figure moving around the kitchen humming a tune and also swaying her hips to her tunes..All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
She stepped into the kitchen after sending all the cooks out by eye gesture and a small nod..
She suddenly grabbed a knife from its rack and raised it behind her ready to strike, only for her hand to freeze on air after hearing Arya’s words..
“I wouldn’t do that if I were you..” She murmured dryly without looking to Charlotte’s direction..
Arya turned off the cooker and turned to Charlotte with a sharp glare..
“Go ahead and stab me.. right here on my neck” she tilted her neck while pointing a finger to it also..
“Just admit that you’ve lost.. if I get as much as a single scratch on my body.. not only will I gorge your eyes out.. I’ll make sure that you spend eternity behind bars!”
The knife fell out of Charlotte’s trembling hands to the ground which made a harsh click against the marbled floor..
“Who the f*ck are you?” She managed to utter which came out barely as a whisper..
Arya’s lips curved upward into a sly smirk “Your worst nightmare!.. I don’t think you should linger here anymore.. because Kyle must have found out everything about you”
Charlotte’s brows knotted, she addressed him so casually like she had known him for so long, who the hell was she? and why was she bent on ruining her hard work?
“Ma’am! something happened in young master’s room!”
Arya’s eyes grew large, before Charlotte could take a step forward, she already sprinted out of the kitchen..

Bryan massaged his forehead as he listened to his father and Lora’s parents discussing about their engagement..
His name was currently in the news headlines, where Lora posted a pregnancy test strip online and also an engagement ring on her finger..
Where she openly declared that the both of them were expecting their first child and that he also proposed to her last night..
“I’m so relieved that Bryan chose my daughter to settle down with, after they broke up few months ago she was torn apart… I had no idea that they’ve made up and even got engaged” Alice, Lora’s mum murmured with a wide smile..
Bryan snorted and rested his gaze on Lora who was scared to look him in the eyes..
He and his mum were the only sad people in the large living room, they were obviously not happy with how things turned out..
He didn’t miss the look of disappointment that crossed his mum’s face..
“So I think we should fix their engagement ceremony by the end of the week”
Bryan sat up on his seat, by the end of the week? today was Thursday!
“I think that should be fine too!” Lora affirmed with a nervous smile, she rested her eyes briefly on Bryan who also did the same..
Their eyes met and he was just about to say something but was interrupted by his dad..
“and I’m very sure Bryan has agreed to it”
Bryan stood up to his feet and walked in large strides towards Lora, he pulled her up in a swift shocking her to the core..
“Give us a moment to talk in private”..

Arya pushed the door open with a bang, her legs suddenly moved to Kyle who was holding his head like he was in some unbearable pain..
Sweat dripped down from his face as he gasped continuously, he staggered trying to keep himself in place but his legs gave way as he wobbled forward..
Arya reached out to him, taking his weight on her, she held unto him tightly..
“Kyle..”
She moved slowly to the bed with him still leaning unto her for support, when she was just close enough, she pushed him down gently and she also followed him down to the bed..
Charlotte came into the room, and was angered, she marched straight to them and forcefully pulled Arya away from him..
“Get your paws off him!”
A slap was sent to her face by Arya who was visibly shaking in rage..
“Kyle is only in this state because of you! if you hadn’t returned back into his life, he’d have been living a comfortable life! and everyone around him would have been happy! but you just had to jinx it with your presence!”
Arya’s eyes fell to his phone that was laying on the ground, she picked it up and her eyes skimmed through the contents on the screen..
“Looks like he already found everything that he needed to know.. your name wasn’t mentioned anywhere on the internet in the last five years until a few weeks ago”
The man on the bed groaned out in pain touching his head, Arya rushed to his side examining him..
“Kyle.. are you alright?” She took one of his hands in hers completely disregarding Charlotte’s presence..

Chad sighed deeply as he moved away from his unconscious friend, he casted a hateful gaze at Charlotte who was by Kyle’s side..
“He’s stressed out.. this situation occurs if he takes too much information all at once”
“But he needs to recall his past.. he already saw everything that happened during the years he couldn’t recall as of now..” Arya imputed.
Chad raised a brow, if that was the case, why hasn’t this b*tch left yet?
“I’ll prescribe some medications for him.. come get it from my car” he said with a meaningful gaze ..
Arya nodded and followed him out..
As soon as they were out of the building, Chad turned to her..
“Arya.. I know how badly you want Kyle to recall his past, even I am desperate as well, but all we can do for now to avoid this from happening again, is to recreate those memories for him little by little”
Arya gave a nod to him, this was the exact solution Mia suggested too..
“Alright, about the drugs I have you last time.. what drug was that about?”
Chad recalled the drugs and his brows furrowed “Kyle’s medication was switched.. the ones you found in the thrash can were the real drugs.. while the one you sent over was a harmful drug that can affect the brain of whoever takes it negatively”
“I guess she must have switched it.. thank goodness I switched it back.. now she’s giving him the right drugs thinking it’s the harmful ones”
Chad flashed her a smile, he admired her bravery, not everyone could tolerate this like she did..
“And what about my dad? any news about him?”
Chad inhaled deeply and shook his head “I’m sorry, but no.. we haven’t found anything concerning his whereabouts”

Bryan closed the door behind him as he pushed Lora into the room..
“Bryan I’ve told you.. our baby…
“Keep quiet! what did you plan to achieve by spreading that fake news online? do you really think you can trap me in a marriage by doing these cheap tricks?!”
Lora held him arm to ease his anger but it only made it worse, he jerked his arm off her grip like she was a disease he was scared of getting infected with..
“I love you so much Bryan.. I’m willing to do anything, I’m such a fool for leaving you like that.. please don’t throw me out this way.. if not for my sake then do it for our baby’s sake” she pleaded almost in tears..
Gone were the days, where her cries could crack his heart, now he only saw her as a cheap b*tch who would do anything in her power to get her selfish desires..
“F*ck off! if you don’t want things to end bad for you.. it’s better you clarify the news that you’ve spread online..”
He turned around to leave when she held unto his legs, she went on her knees sobbing her eyes out, hoping he’d have mercy on her..
“Please Bryan.. I’m really sorry, don’t make me suffer this way.. I know you’re being harsh on me because of her”
He forcefully pulled his leg away from her which resulted her into falling on flat on the ground, she screamed out in pain holding her stomach that collided with the ground..
Bryan turned to her swiftly, his brows furrowed thinking it was one of her ways to get him to stay..
Lora’s face turned white like a sheet of paper, she felt a warm liquid running down her thighs until she saw darkness..
“Lora!” he called out to her as he sat on his heels, he panicked on seeing the blood on her thigh..
“Lora!”
