Chapter 10
The scenes before them merged with fragmented memories in their minds, nearly driving them insane.
Adrian, Lucas, and Maxwell pounded their chests in anguish–each strike a brutal confession.
At this moment, Natalic tearfully knocked on the door of the darkened room where the three men were confined.
“Adrian, Lucas, Maxwell, are you in there? Let me help you out, please! When you suddenly disappeared, I was so
scared!”
“The memories appearing in your minds are fake–Stella made them up! She drugged you to create these false recollections. Please don’t believe her!”
Natalie panicked, knocking desperately on the door, hoping for a response as she tried to rescue them.
She was genuinely frightened. At the haunted house in the amusement park, they had been protecting her in their arms just moments before, comforting her and shielding her from any frightening scenes.
Then suddenly, they were struck with intense headaches. The love in their eyes visibly vanished completely, their gazes instantly becoming unfamiliar and cold.
Without hesitation, they had pushed her away and ran off like madmen.
Natalie fell to the ground, terrified by the haunted house characters. She had crawled out with her eyes closed, scraping her knees and palms.
Afterward, Stella’s words echoed in her mind–Adrian, Lucas, and Maxwell would regain their memories.
It was the wine they drank yesterday!
A thousand thoughts raced through Natalie’s mind; she even considered running away.
But she still clung to a desperate hope–what if they still loved her, even after regaining their memories?
After all, Stella had married someone else. There was no future for them with her.
Why couldn’t she, Natalie, be the one to be with them?
She had developed genuine feelings with them!
Their indulgence and affection over these months had been real, their kindness to her had been real.
She wanted to gamble on how much she meant to them.
Natalie called into the dark room several times without receiving any response.
Just as she was about to leave in defeat, Adrian’s characteristically cold voice suddenly came from inside.

“Let her in!”
His voice carried a hint of anger, sounding dangerous, but Natalie was too excited to think much about it. She turned to look around.
The next moment, a guard coldly opened the door, pushed her inside, then closed and locked it again.
The smile on Natalie’s face had barely formed before it froze.
Seeing Lucas and Maxwell approaching with clenched fists, her legs involuntarily weakened, and her heart began
to race.
“Adrian, Lucas, Maxwell, what are you doing? I came to rescue you! Stella doesn’t love you. She’s trying to alter your memories. I won’t let her succeed. Please believe me!”
Her voice trembled as she spoke.
Lucas’s eyes narrowed slightly as he said softly, “Is that so? Do you think we’re all fools?”
As his words fell, his eyes instantly turned cold as his large hand gripped Natalie’s throat, pinning her against the wall.

His expression remained calm, as if he were merely crushing an ant. Natalie felt her blood run cold.
“No… Lucas, you can’t do this to me. Did you forget the memories of these past few months? Did you forget your feelings for me?”
