Chapter 2185
However..
Bonnie had the same idea as Jim, too.
This unknown darkness that was before them could be the most dangerous thing they would ever face, so how
could she possibly allow Jim to face it himself?
She still remembered…
When they met at the orphanage, Jim had told her before that he was secretly afraid of the dark.
During the past year they had been together, Bonnie would sometimes tease him for being afraid of the dark.
Even though her feelings toward Jim were more governed by disgust rather than love at this moment, it did not

so they shared the same fears.
As soon as she thought of this, she grew even more determined to go with him. “If you don’t bring me along, I
won’t let you go in there.”
A surge of warmth spread through Jim’s heart at the sound of this.
He turned to stare at Bonnie, whose eyes were etched with determination and worry.
He knew she was not throwing a tantrum or deliberately trying to challenge him, but she was truly concerned about
his safety and wanted to face this danger with him.
As he gazed at Bonnie’s face, the image of Bonnie sitting in his lap with her arms around her neck, telling him that
there was nothing to be afraid of in the dark, appeared in his mind.
In this scenario, Bonnie was wearing a red nightgown, and her hair spilled on her shoulders, making her look gentle
and kind. She was staring at him with the same determined, concerned look and pressed a small kiss on his throat.
“Don’t worry. I’ll be here with you. If you’re ever afraid of the dark in the future, you can come to me.”
Jim’s heart leaped into his throat as a strange feeling surged into his heart. This was not a figment of his
imagination but a real memory. It felt more real to him than anything he had ever experienced! Did this mean
that…
Was he and Bonnie…truly in love in the past?
He could not believe that, at one point, Bonnie had sat on his lap and talked to him so tenderly. This was something
that he would never have imagined having happened, much less having experienced. “Mr. LEQSEL>Niry?” The
subordinates whom Jim had ordered to go with him down the stairwell turned back when they saw that he did not
follow.
Jim immediately came to. He paused for a moment, then turned to shoot Bonnie a meaningful glance. “You… Are

Bonnie nodded earnestly as she held his gaze, then clutched his arm even tighter. “I’m sure. I want to go down
there with you.” Even though Jim did not remember a thing, she wanted to fulfill her promise to him. Well, this one
promise, at least. Jim sighed, then clasped her tiny hand in his and held it tightly. “Alright, you can come, but stay
close to me.” Then, he turned and walked down the stairwell. Bonnie followed behind him, and as she stared at his
tall, slender figure, a strange feeling spread through her heart. The stairwell was very long, and even after walking
for a long time, they did not see anyone else.
The man leading the group was beginning to feel a little scared, so he could not help asking,” Mr. Landry, should we
continue?” Jim furrowed his brows. “Yes.” As soon as he finished his sentence, the blood-curdling cries of a young
girl rang out from the end of the hallway. “Help me!”
