Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover

That was a question Susan contemplated in the past too.

Why did Ian erase his memories?

Back then, she felt that it was because she was not brave enough at that time. However, with the way the two interacted at Yeringham, and with how the young man had returned without a second thought when he heard that she felt bad about the comments from others, she wondered if he truly needed to forget about her.

Susan was suspicious about it.

However, by then, Ian had already forgotten all about her.

She had not dared to ask him about it, and nor did she dare to ask anyone about it. Susan had been afraid that she would not be able to stay by his side if she were to make him mad.

It was only now she finally knew that her suspicions had been right-something else was at play.

“Mom, do you know what you’re doing? Do you know… what he had to go through because you kneeled before him? In the end, he had to get a psychologist to erase the terrible memory you gave him to carry on with his life!” Susan screamed as she fixed her bloodshot eyes on her mother.

The heartache and anger she felt were spilling out of her, but all she could do was bellow them in her mother’s face.

Yes. Does she know how badly she had hurt him? Does she think that only her children deserve to be treated well while someone else’s children don’t?
