NovelEnglishChapter 323 Sthings could be unforgettable and life-altering for one person, but for another, they were merely fleeting moments like a breeze across the fingertips. It wasn't exactly a fair thing.
"I didn't do anything to hurt you in the past, did I?" As soon as Grace said this, she could clearly feel Ed's body stiffen even more.
The truth was, Grace didn't know much about her past self. Apart from being known publicly as Yancey's lovesick follower, there seemed to be no other clues she could find.
"No, you've always been very good." She breathed a sigh of relief and smiled again.
"Good. As long as I didn't hurt you. In my dream, I seemed very young, about eight years old. If you've likedsince then, that means you've likedfor many years, huh? Speaking of which, I remember Yancey once mentioned that in high school, someone stole my school uniform, and because of that, I had to wear other clothes for my graduation photo.

Grace had only been joking, but seeing his reaction, she somehow felt that it might actually be him. "If you were around during my high school graduation, were you there at my university graduation ceremony too?" Something major had happened on the day of her university graduation. The car she was in with Ethan got into an accident, and Ethan broke his legs. This incident happened precisely on her graduation day.
She would've completely forgotten about it if people hadn't kept bringing it up.
And based on her impression of Ed, he was the type who, once he liked someone, would obsessively watch them. He was full of longing and passion, desperately wanting to get close but afraid his passion would burn them.
She closed her eyes, waiting quietly for his answer.
After a long while, he rasped out a response in a hoarse voice, "I was there." Grace slowly opened her eyes, and suddenly, she laughed. "You really were there." "Mhm." Her heart felt warm, and she suddenly regretted how casually she had mentioned breaking up before.
At first, she had only considered this as a trial relationship. Because of her memory loss, the whole world had felt strange to her. Only Ed had felt somewhat familiar, somewhat close.
She admitted her attitude had been quite noncommittal, even thinking at one point that if it didn't work out, it was no big deal.
But after those dreams, her heart had softened completely.
When someone loved you so purely and had been silently watching over you for so long, even a heart trapped in a glacier would eventually thaw out.
Grace suddenly sat up, found his hand, and hugged him tightly. "If only I could go back... I'd definitely talk to you more." Ed's body stiffened. He carefully set the plate down on the nightstand, then hugged her back fiercely. The two of them embraced in the darkness for a long tuntil Grace finally yawned.
"I'm not feeling very well. I'm going to sleep now. Will you sleep with me?" "Mhm." He left the bedroom, washed the dishes in the kitchen, and then went to a different bathroom to shower before returning to the master bedroom and slipping into her bed.

But she had already made up her mind. She would respect his wishes.
Until the day he willingly revealed himself, she would never peek.
A pair of hands gently wrapped around her waist. His posture betrayed his neediness as he pulled her fully into his embrace.
Grace could feel the size difference between them. She was almostm completely enveloped by his body. Relaxing her body, she fought her sleepiness and chatted with him. "Ed, from now on, I won't bring up breaking up with you anymore. Whatever I said before when I was angry, don't trust a word of it."
The arms around her waist tightened a little. He asked softly "Really?"m Grace heard the cautiousness hidden within his reply and couldn't help but laugh.
"Really. It's just that sometimes, bad things happen in my life, and I can't help but take it out on you. But once I down, I'll clook for you myself." His forehead rested lightly against her shoulder, and his voice carried a trace of joy. "Okay." Grace's mood also lifted along with his, but then she heard him ask again, "You and your boss, Ethan... Is there really something between you?"
