Chapter 489 Memory Loss
As expected, John left the castle before noon and returned to his ce of residence in C Ind. He
stayed there.
Nina took care of the two children herself. She was never more than three meters away from them and
had a lot of interaction with them.
Noah and Vicente tried their best to persuade her to let John return, but Nina just said, "It''s impossible."
"Okay." Vicente curled her lips and sighed. She thought, ''I have said so much, but Nina still refuses to
let John back. What do I do now?''
She thought hard but did note up with any other way.
It waste and time to go to bed.
Nina added a big bed to the twins'' room. She stayed there with her children.
Vicente had not been able to hold the children for days. Tonight, when Nina was about to shut the door,
she entered.
"What are you doing? Be careful. I just lulled them to sleep." Nina looked at Vicente, who bent over and
held one of the babies in her arms.
"Yeah, I know. You haven''t asked me to hold the children for a week. I''ve missed them." Looking at the
babies, Vicente resisted the urge to pinch their cheeks. She was afraid to wake them up.
If she did, they would surely cry incessantly and simultaneously.
Vicente carefully adjusted her grip, allowing the baby to be cradled nicely in her arms. The baby stirred
and moved. As he wrinkled his face, Vicente''s heart leapt to her throat.
"My dear, is he going to wake up?" Before the baby could open his eyes, Vicente quickly put him back
in the crib. Seeing that the child went right back to sleep, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, she looked at Don again. She had not held him enough.
"That''s enough." Nina opened the door wide and signaled to Vicente to leave.
Vicente looked at the two children reluctantly. "Nina, how about I sleep here with you tonight so that I
can hug the children tomorrow morning?"
"No." Nina walked toward Vicente, pulled her tie, and shoved her out the door. "Don''t think that you can
do whatever you want just because we''re good friends. Don''t you know that it''s inappropriate for a man
and a woman to be so close to each other? Go back to your own room."
Then, Nina closed the door.
Vicente was left stunned and standing outside. She opened her mouth wide as a thought urred to
her.
She took off her tie and went quickly to see Noah.
There was a sudden knock on his door. Noah stopped his work and went to see who it was.
"What''s wrong?" He was a little surprised to see Vicente.
Vicente went straight in and then turned to Noah. "I suspect that Nina has lost some of her memories
other than forgetting John."
"She has lost some of her memories of her past two years in Lexingport City. I thought we already
knew that." Noah closed the door, grabbed a chair for Vicente, and let her sit down.
Vicente slumped into the chair and shook her head. "No. She could remember people and things from
Lexingport City. She just couldn''t ce them. Look at the things that Leon told her about Michelle and
Emma. She remembered them.
But I think she has forgotten things that happened here. For example, I just went to see her right now,
and she didn''t know that I''m..."
Vicente trailed off.
She bit her lip. She almost spilled the beans just now about her really being a woman.
"You are what?" Noah noticed Vicente''s panic.
"Nothing. But Nina''s lost her recent memories of C Ind." Vicente changed the subject. "Did Albert
inject her with a poisonous drug? What a vicious man! That drug had not been sessfully developed
when Nina was injected with it. Now she has a poor memory. She even takes you for John."
Noah''s eyes darkened. Every time he heard Albert''s name, he felt embarrassed and wanted to defend

him. But it was undeniable that Albert indeed had done something harmful.
"Everyone creates a lot of memories in their lifetime, and most of them are small things. It''s natural that
they can''t remember all of them," Noah reasoned.
"You''re right. I don''t remember everything I''ve done before." Vicente nodded but immediately shook her
head afterward. "But Nina has forgotten important things. That''s not right. What should we do?"
Noah asked, "Does the important thing she''s forgotten have anything to do with you?"
"Yes." Vicente nodded. "It''s something very, very important."
Just now, Nina said that it was improper for a man and a woman to be so close to each other. Vicente
thought that Nina must have forgotten that she was a woman.
No wonder Nina had been treating her differently these days. She was not willing to let her hold her
waist. She had been treating her like she was a man.
Vicente wondered if Nina had forgotten about their two-year agreement.
''She can''t forget about it!''
"What should I do?" Vicente looked at Noah expectantly.
"You can just tell her again." Sitting in front of theputer, Noah looked at Tom and his WeChat
dialogue box on the screen. The document he had been waiting for had finally arrived.
Vicente identally caught a glimpse of the document and read aloud, "A homicide case in a
cemetery?"
Noah nced sidelong at her as if saying that it was confidential and none of her business.
"I just repeated the subject line. I''m not interested in whatever that is. Besides, I think it sounds
horrible."
"Well, Nini is very interested in these kinds of things." Noah opened the downloaded document and
read it carefully.
Staring at the side of Noah''s face, Vicente got lost in thought. When she came to her senses, Noah
was reading something else.
Vicente immediately raised her head and gently pped her own face.
''Fortunately, Noah is focused on his work. Otherwise, he would have misunderstood my staring at him.''
"I''m leaving." After saying that, Vicente stood up and headed to the door. When she put her right hand
on the doorknob, she stopped and asked in a low voice, "When are you going to tell Nina that you''re
not really her beloved?"
Noah didn''t respond as if he didn''t hear her.
He only raised his eyes when the door was shut.
The next morning, Vicente pulled Nina into the bedroom on the second floor without saying anything.
She closed the door behind them.
On his way to the dining room, Noah did not catch a glimpse of them. He asked Cali, "Where are Count
Nangong and Princess Nina?"
"Well..." Cali''s eyes twinkled and her ears turned red.
Noah knitted his brows. "What?"
"Nothing." Cali saw Vicente drag Nina to the second floor this morning. With a red face, she said,
"Princess Nina has been spending a lot of time with the twins. At this moment, she and Count Nangong
are having their own time."
Noah did not think too much when he heard this, but when he saw Cali''s red face, he realized
something and frowned.
"They are having their own time?" Noah''s body stiffened. He turned his head and looked at the stairs.
Without saying anything, he turned and concentrated on his food. After a while, he heard footsteps
descending from upstairs.
Vicente had her arm around Nina''s waist and whispered something in her ear with a smile.
"Let''s see what happens when Noah sees me holding you like this," Vicente said in a female voice.
