Except for him, Charles, Nico, and Megan were all looking at Gwendolyn, waiting for her to make a decision.
Staring at the beans in her hands, Gwendolyn cast her gaze downward instead of replying immediately.
Megan smiled. “Both of them are so handsome. It’s indeed hard to choose. If I were you, I’d choose both of them.”
Although she intended to ease the tense atmosphere, none of the three men laughed along with her.
It was merely a lighthearted joke, yet they seemed to treat this matter with utmost importance.
Awkwardly, Megan stopped smiling and fell silent.
Faced with their stares, Gwendolyn maintained her composure, but a slight pout of unhappiness was evident on her lips. “I won’t choose any of them. I don’t know him, so why should I choose him to be my husband?”
Cedrick’s heart ached, as if a dagger had just pierced it. He gulped, feeling a bitter taste rising in his throat.
He was in so much pain that he felt the urge to tear up. Lowering his gaze, he struggled to suppress his rising emotions.
Nico’s expression was grim, too. He stood quietly beside Cedrick and felt sorry when he saw how pale his employer looked.
Charles’ expression was just as gloomy as the other two men.
His guess was correct. Gwendolyn, after losing her memories, would not choose Cedrick.
However, he wasn’t at all happy. After everything he did for the past few days, Gwendolyn had grown familiar with him and was willing to trust him. Yet, when it came to choosing between Charles and Cedrick, who seemed like a stranger to her, she still did not choose Charles.
The three men stood in the courtyard, stiff as statues.
Megan couldn’t stand the rigid atmosphere and brought out a few stools for them to sit on.
She then turned to Charles and inquired, “Do your guests want to stay for dinner? It’s getting late, and the nights can be quite dark in the mountains. They might need to stay overnight, but…”
