Chapter 163 Sudden Memories
Bang!
The piano suddenly let out a discordant and strange sound.
Tess stared at Abel with a strange look, her expression wondering if he lost his mind.
“Do you even know what you’re talking about?” Tess red at him.
However, Abel nodded firmly. He was determined and said, “Of course!”

He instinctively reached out for Tess‘ hand and continued, “Uncle Finn might have wronged you, but I won’t.”
Abel looked up. His usually gloomy and wild gaze was now full of sincerity and hope.
Tess was startled and quickly pulled her hand back.
Suddenly, a series of images shed in her empty mind.
She didn’t recall ever having those memories, yet they felt strangely familiar.
She stared at Abel’s face as her consciousness began to fade.
“Tess, wake up!”
Behind her was a raging me roaring high into the sky.
A young boy was holding a girl. Although he tried to stay calm, his trembling fingertips and sobbing revealed his inner panic.
“Abel…”
The girl in his arms finally showed some response.
He was overjoyed and leaned closer anxiously, asking, “Tess, don’t be scared. Just hold on a little longer. I’ve already called the ambnce,”
He tried <i>to </ifort her, but she shook her head.
Such a massive fire had left her feeling like her body was falling apart.
“It’s going to be alright. As long as you get better, I’ll do anything you want. Just stay <i>by </i>my

side.”
As his voice roared, cold yet burning tears fell onto the girl’s body.
She stared nkly at him, just like how Tess was staring at Abel at the moment.
The images kept shing in her mind.
Suddenly, her eyes widened and she snapped back to reality.
Abel looked at her worriedly,

The shing images ovepped with the reality, especially Abel’s face. Although years had passed, it was as if it hadn’t changed at all.
A flicker of surprise crossed her eyes, but she quickly hid it.
No wonder …
No wonder Abel looked at her like some precious acquaintance when they first met. It turned out there really was a connection between them in the past.
She pursed her lips. The fragmented memories were sudden and incredibly vivid.
When the memories showed up, she was almost certain that the girl was herself.
However, when she thought of the cold and merciless figure at the end of those memories, the boy’s desperate pleading, the girl who turned away without a nce and leaving the boy heartbroken, Tess felt like her heart was struck by a heavy blow.
She quickly pulled away and yelled, “Abel!”
His name cracked in the air like a warning, but it only made his heartbeat race and his gaze was even more intense.
“As long as I’m still married to Finn, I’m still your aunt!” Tess said as she red at him coldly.
Her words were like an icy de stabbing straight into his heart.
Silence fell between them.
Abel’s gaze showed pain and disappointment, but he still looked up, trying to search for the faintest warmth in her. There was none.
He hesitated and said, “Tess…

The familiar name echoed in her mind and Tess silently bit her lip.
She turned her head away, “Don’t bother me anymore.”
“Bothering you?” Abel was in disbelief.

“That’s right! As Finn’s nephew, you must’ve heard about my unrequited love for him. Why would you think I’d disregard morality and give you a second nce?”
Abel was stunned and his eyes were filled with pain, but he still said unwillingly, “You said you wanted a divorce and Uncle Finn had wronged you. I just saw him with Nadine.”
“Abel,” Tess cut him off. She stared at him and continued, “Love is what makes people hate.”
Those few words blocked everything he was about to say.
He looked at her nkly, as if he’d never known this woman before.
Just then, amotion was heard from outside.
Abel’s expression changed. Despite having a lot of questions in mind, he could only give her one longplicated look before slipping off and waited by the side of the stage.
At the same time, the door was opened and a wave of gasps filled the room.
“Oh my god! Isn’t this just like the ballroom in the ancient castle!! Mr. Lock really went all out!”
“Wait, do you see the piano up there? There’s a woman behind it! How did she get here before us? Could she <i>be </i>the performer Mr. Lock hired?”
They started specting about the woman’s identity.
“Ladies and gentlemen, thank <i>you </i><i>so </i>much for taking time to attend the celebration arranged by Finn for me. It’s truly an honor!” Nadine picked up the microphone and made a quick opening speech.
She shrugged the shawl off her shoulders and continued, “Now, let the party begin!”
As her words fell, thunderous apuse and gasps filled the room.
Nadine was already dressed in a luxurious gown covered in diamonds and jewels. She was shining <i>so </i>brightly under the dazzling light.
