Chapter 179 The air fell quiet for a moment.

| sat on the couch, my fingers tensed up. “What?” | thought | heard it wrong.

In my memory, Dad drove for a long way. | couldn’t remember where we were headed, but | remembered lying on Mom's lap, sleeping soundly.

“Turn down the music. Stephie’s sleeping.” | vaguely heard Mom softly scolding Dad.

“Andy askedto meet at the Hymn Bridge. Let's head over there.” | couldn’t quite recall Dad’s exact words, but | remembered feeling excited to meet someone.

“Isn't that Andy’s car?” Mom asked.

“The orphanage has fostered two geniuses, and the superiors have high expectations for them. This is a good opportunity to promote our cause and inspire more people to join the public welfare movement. We have to raise awareness about orphaned and neglected.

children...

Bang! The moment Dad stopped the car, a loud bang echoed, and a powerful impact nearly threwout of the car.

“Stephie...” My final memory froze as Mom heldtightly, shelteringin her arms.

Her blood mingled with mine.

“Stephie...” “Stay alive...” “Stephie... Stephie!” Chapter 179 But | couldn't recall anything beyond the crash. | was stunned the moment it happened.

| couldn’t tell when it occurred, or how much tpassed. It just felt as though thad frozen.

All | remembered was that when | regained consciousness, Michael was there besideand was repeatedly calling my name.

| also vaguely remembered a figure rushing into the flames, risking his life to get Mom and Dad out of the car...

And then, the figure gradually merged with Michael's.

Could it be that my memory was distorted? Aunty Lois continued, “It was the day of the award ceremony and the children’s graduation ceremony at Double Stars Welfare Home. Stephie’s parents and | had agreed to meet there. Then, when | saw the car accident on the bridge, | realized that Stephie’s parents and Andy Lincoln were involved in it.

“It was a terrible accident. The Carlsons and the Lincolns were caught between a dump truck that was traveling in the wrong direction and an overloaded semi-truck. The Lincolns were instantly killed.” Aunty Lois sobbed and continued her story.

“According to witnesses, a teenage boy had bravely rushed into the flames to save Stephie. But when Stephie woke up, she couldn't recall who had saved her, so she assumed it was Mike.

| stiffly stared at Aunty Lois, feeling as if my head were about to explode.

Apparently, your own memory could deceive you, especially in times of immense trauma and shock.

The brain would fabricate false memories of the moments preceding unconsciousness.

| always thought that Michael was the one who saved me, and I'd never once doubted it.

Chapter 179 W/S And whenever | asked Michael about it, he would quietly concede too.

“Michael's father and | were on bad terms, so Mike never received the love he deserved from a young age. He knows how to possess, but not to love.” Aunty Lois wiped her tears before continuing, “I was close friends with Stephie’s mom, so we arranged Mike and Stephie’s marriage carly on. We hoped to be in-laws someday.

“Mike was a rebellious kid with opinions of his own. And if he didn’t like Stephie, he would never accept the arrangement. Yet, he'd quietly accepted it. So, | knew Mike liked Stephie. He really did! Though he never admitted it.”
