Hour Chase

"Ellie, listen to me. I think there may be some misunderstanding between us."

Caroline was very anxious, she wanted to explain clearly, but unfortunately she didn't know how to say Ellie so that she could understand immediately.

It's about two people, if Ellie misunderstands again, I will be very troubled.

The night sky outside the window was pitch black, only a few bright stars were shining.

The call time of the mobile phone is still beating, and the time is passing by with the movement of the hour hand.

Ellie didn't speak, because she wanted to believe that there was a little misunderstanding between her and Caroline, so that the distance between the two could be properly separated.

Maybe if Caroline didn't say anything, she could guess the identity of the man herself.

It must be the one called the future husband.

Ellie felt deeply inexplicably displeased with the obviously provocative reply in that tone, as well as the words with a strong sense of possession.

She didn't want to know the identity of that person from her mouth, let alone ask herself.

Even if it was really what he thought, it would only increase his dislike for that person.

"I know it's late, but... can I meet with you? I want to explain to you in person."

After a pause, Caroline added,

"I'll just come to you!"

This is not a very difficult thing for Caroline.

If you drive a sports car by yourself, it will take about half an hour's drive from your home to Ellie's place.

Originally, I could have asked Ellie to come out as well. The two of them made an appointment and just came out to meet.

But when she thought of Ellie being misunderstood by her own side, a strong sense of self-blame rose in her heart.

Better go by yourself, Caroline thought.

"No, it's not safe to drive at night, you should make an appointment, I'll come out."

After all, I was still worried that Caroline would come out alone.

Recently, there have been many more accidents at night. If Caroline also had such an incident, how could she feel better.

Ellie's words shook Caroline's feelings for Ellie again.

Since this is the result, let's make it clear when we meet tonight.

Then, Ellie listened to Caroline tell the address of a park.The two decided to meet there.

Soon, Ellie greeted David and went alone.

Only when I arrived did I realize that this park is not too far from the company.

It's only four stations away by subway.

At night, the park is open to the public.The surrounding street lights turned on, making the surroundings brighter.

Ellie stood not far from the park with her hands in her jacket pockets.

Looking at the vehicles and pedestrians coming and going, Ellie's eyes never let go of anything.

She didn't know how Caroline got here, so she didn't dare to relax.

Suddenly, Ellie's eyes caught a person walking quickly from a distance.

Although she was wearing a long black coat, the charming golden hair exuded under the light made Ellie recognize that it must be Caroline.

Ellie walked towards her, and when she saw it for a moment, she felt that this scene seemed familiar.

When did you ever experience something like this...

Without allowing Ellie to think too much, Caroline came before her.

Her expression was a little anxious, but it couldn't cover the more obvious joy.

"I listened to you and didn't drive here, so it's a little late..."

When she said this, Caroline lowered her head a little, as if she was sorry for being late.

However, Ellie doesn't care about this, after all, it's better to wait for her than to let her wait for herself.

"It's okay. Ah, let's go in then..."

Ellie scratched her hair with her right hand, not knowing where the main entrance was.

At this time, Caroline, who saw Ellie's thoughts, put her left hand on Ellie's right hand, which was still in her pocket, and led her forward.

"It's been a long time since the last time I came here, but I remember!"

Caroline said, and soon the two entered the park.

"Although we have only been here once, but...I remember better than you, right?"

"Have we been here?"

When she asked this sentence, Ellie received a sigh from Caroline.

"Not only have you been here, you also said that the fountain here is the most beautiful fountain you have ever seen. Look."

Sure enough, the fountain in front of the two of them was still working.

Not only them, but other citizens gathered around the fountain.

Indeed, there are not many fountains with unique shapes like this in large and small parks in the urban area of ​​London.

Ellie looked at the fountain in front of her. She couldn't remember when she saw it and when she said that sentence, but this time, she was attracted by that fountain.

Perhaps as Caroline said, I really like that fountain, no matter how many times I have seen it, I will still like it.

Caroline took Ellie to walk slowly, and finally, the two came to a quiet place in the park.

There is a small river there, and the old man often comes to fish during the day.And at night, no one came here.

In order to check the time, Ellie took out her mobile phone.

The screen showed that it was approaching nine o'clock, which meant that there were less than four hours before the park closed.

The two sat down on a nearby bench. At this moment, Ellie found out the text message in the phone, the reply letter from Caroline.

It was just a short reply, and Caroline looked at the screen in shock.

It is indeed morning.But... At that time, I went with Neil's mother to watch the ball game played by Neil's younger brother and friends in the yard, and I didn't bring my mobile phone.

If anyone took the opportunity to use his mobile phone to send this reply, it was only Neil.

"I swear, I will never use such words to you. But, I must apologize, it was my negligence that gave him the opportunity..."

"No, I don't blame you, Caroline."

Ellie pressed the lock screen button and put the phone back in her pocket.

"I can imagine that my appearance is a big or small mistake for you. But if you let it go, your happiness will definitely be destroyed by me, I know."

"what are you saying?!"

"Look, if my guess is right, your boyfriend is already wary of me, right? Isn't he?"

Ellie smiled and said what she was thinking.

"Anyway, I don't want to embarrass you. If...my presence causes unhappiness between you..."

"You are really a coward! Not only cowardly, but also selfish!"

Caroline loses her composure at Ellie again.Once again, he made himself angry because of Ellie's words.

Still the same attitude, no matter what, Ellie will no longer be the person who will block all wind and rain for herself.

"I once believed what you said. I didn't want me to renege on my marriage because I was afraid that the Adams family would retaliate against my family. It was out of my desire to protect me...I didn't expect it to be my wishful thinking..."

As she spoke, Caroline couldn't bear the grievance in her heart, and turned her head away.

"I…!"

Ellie didn't know how to refute Caroline's words.

She didn't know what the Adams family was, who her fiancé was, and what kind of grievances there were between them.

She doesn't know anything.

She can no longer remain silent like a fool, unable to do anything.

Ellie turned Caroline's body towards her.Seeing the moment when her face was covered with tears again, this time, she strengthened her determination to know the truth of the matter.

"I... I don't know what to say. I just feel that my brain seems... as if something most important is missing."

Ellie lowered her head, her eyes full of helplessness.

"Caroline, I, I can't remember the past at all! Including, how I met you...I can't remember anything...!"

In the past few days, Ellie has become more and more hesitant about her memory.

What she can remember most clearly is David, who raised her, and Karen.

For Karen, to a certain extent, Karen's sense of existence is even much higher than that of Caroline.

And more, I can't remember anymore.

But the name Caroline, she is really just a code name for herself.

Only when I saw her that morning, did I have a sense of recognition of her from the character image given by this name.

What is certain is that his brain has not been affected by any external force and has not been injured.

But the people and things in the past are hard to remember anyway.

Ellie's words sounded weird, and Caroline thought it was a problem with her understanding.

She turned her head around, looked straight at Ellie, and couldn't think of anything to blame her for a while.

"Ellie...is what you said true?"

The other party nodded and sighed.

"I have no reservations about you, I think I can guarantee that."

Of course, Caroline knew very well that Ellie would not lie to herself.

Still wanting to say something, Caroline's cell phone rang.

The name displayed on the screen was the focus of their conversation, Neil.

Caroline hesitated, wondering if she should answer his call in front of Allie.Looking at the flashing screen, I thought about pressing the reject button.

However, Ellie got up and walked in the opposite direction from Caroline.

The distance between the two was not far away, even if Caroline answered the phone on the spot, Ellie, who was standing far away, could not hear their phone calls clearly.

Caroline understood Ellie's approach, and answered the phone with her back turned to Ellie.

"Good evening Caroline! Hope I didn't bother you."

"Sure, will you have fun with the wine?"

Caroline communicated patiently, but she was very upset in her heart.

The voice on the other side was quite clear, and Neil must have called after he left the place of the reception.

"It's a lot of fun! If you come too, I think this reception will definitely shine under your seal!"

Then there were a lot of words of praise, which were the sweet words that Neil would like to please Caroline the most.

Believing that the reception would not end so early, Caroline said a few more comforting words and hung up the phone.

Hearing that there was no sound of talking behind her, Ellie turned around and walked in the direction of Caroline.

"Is it... from your boyfriend?"

Ellie asked awkwardly, and reached out to touch the tip of her nose.

I saw Caroline smiled slightly, and showed Ellie the screen on the phone.

Neil Adams.

Above the name is his photo.

A handsome and attractive man, this is Ellie's first impression.

But this handsome man, to her, the impact is beyond words.

The author has something to say:
