The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Zachary smiled faintly. "I might not remember her, but a person's instinct doesn't lie. She...captivated me."

Lilin did not quite understand it, but she said, "That's because you have good taste. Even though you don't remember her, you've never once fallen in love with that vile Sophia.

Even if it might be a case of mistaken identity, they had hoped to at least catch a glimpse of the woman that Lilin had been talking about. Alas, they seemed to have missed the window of opportunity.
