Chapter 2046 Why Do I Not Remember
Her gaze alighting on Roxanne, Elektra noticed the latter subconsciously keeping her right hand over her abdomen. Thus, she commented, "Congratulations on your pregnancy, Ms. Jarvis. You and Lucian make a perfect match indeed!"
Everyone present was taken aback as she would never have said such a thing in the past.
Roxanne could tell that Elektra was hinting at her that she would not be clinging to Lucian anymore.
Hence, she replied evenly, "Thank you. It's twins, so the house will be exceedingly lively in the near future."
"That's great!" Elektra exclaimed from the depths of her heart.
On the heels of that, she abruptly started, "I'm really sorry for the mistakes I committed in the past, Ms. Jarvis. I've wronged you greatly, and I hereby apologize sincerely." Her expression was beyond solemn and grave.
While Roxanne had some reservations about it, she swiftly answered, "It's okay. That was all in the past."
Throughout it all, Lucian did not say a single word. Jonathan gave a dip of his head as though vouching for Elektra.
Then, they all chatted casually.
Elektra laid out her plans, saying she still wanted to start a business. Everyone else was supportive of that.
Midway, Jonathan received a call from Madilyn, and he left to make preparations for the wedding.
In the end, it was James who drove Elektra back.
After everyone had left, Roxanne turned to her husband and lamented, "It looks like Elektra has really changed. Otherwise, she would never have sought me out."
"That'll be for the best." Lucian was incredibly cautious when it came to that matter.
His attitude had Roxanne's lips curve into a smirk. "You don't have to be so nervous. I trust you. Elektra probably doesn't like you anymore now. Don't worry. The two of you are still childhood friends, so you don't need to restrain yourself too much."
At that, Lucian nodded. "I know my boundaries. At present, taking good care of you is my most important task. I don't want to bother about other things."
Meanwhile, as James drove Elektra back, Elektra, who sat in the passenger seat, glanced at him every so often.
James frowned, sensing that something was amiss. "Is there something on my face, Elektra? Is there leftover stubble or a pimple?"
For a moment, Elektra panicked. In the next heartbeat, however, she hastily tried to cover it up.
"Do you still remember the times when we were young, James? My house was right beside yours. At that time, it was even you who introduced Lucian to me!" Elektra lamented placidly. James' focus was on driving. Without turning to her, he bobbed his head and replied, "Yeah, I was the one who introduced him to you. The first time you saw him, you were completely enraptured. Jonathan and I could see that you had a crush on him!"
After saying that, he snickered teasingly.
At once, Elektra's brows knitted together. "Nonsense! Is that true? Why don't I remember that?"
Verily, her memory was extremely fuzzy. She could seemingly recall something, but she could not remember whether it was James or Lucian exactly.
In the car, the two of them talked at length about the past. It was as though a movie was playing in her head, depicting increasingly more events of the past.
"There's something wrong with you, Elektra. Lucian, Jonathan, and I remember all this. How could you have forgotten them? Did something happen during the few years you were abroad?" James was very much surprised.
That question stumped Elektra.
She tried her best to cast her mind back to the past, but there were many details she could not recall, especially the first two years she made Lucian's acquaintance.
What exactly is wrong with me? Am I suffering from amnesia
