Willow and Morgan spent an intimate night together after Willow's sister left. The next morning, Willow slept in late and missed a call from her mother. Morgan left for work, unaware Willow's phone would soon be unreachable, and Willow herself was rushing to keep an appointment, planning to surprise Morgan later.

Why is her phone off?

Morgan Ashworth tried calling multiple times, but couldn’t get through; her phone was still off.

Morgan furrowed his brows, feeling a vague sense of unease.

During their wedding, he promised to try to trust her and give her his confidence, but now each day was so blissful that it felt unreal, making him even more anxious.

He feared she would suddenly leave him again.

He feared she would suddenly disappear from his life again.

"Mr. President, please have dinner first." The secretary said respectfully.

Morgan stood up, grabbed his car keys, and walked out. "Postpone the afternoon agenda. I’m going out for a bit."

"Yes."

...

Morgan returned to the hotel, opened the room door, and walked in, "Honey~"

The bed was empty; Willow Crawford had already gotten up.

The room was also empty; no one was there.

Where did she go?

Morgan quickly went to Celeste Linden’s room. Celeste was surprised, "Miles, weren’t you out for work? Why are you back?"

Morgan glanced inside, seeing Joy and Danielle playing games, having lots of fun.

Seeing his son, Morgan’s heart calmed down a bit, "Sis, where’s Willow? Did she go out?"

Celeste nodded, "Yes, Willow’s mom came. She went to see her mom, so she sent Joy here to play with Danielle."

What, his mother-in-law came?

Morgan didn’t know about this; he pursed his thin lips.

"Miles, Willow didn’t tell you she was going out?"

Morgan shook his head, "No, I’ve been leaving early and returning late recently. She probably didn’t have time to tell me."

Celeste laughed, "Miles, are you nervous?"

"What?"

"What else would it be? You found Willow wasn’t around, so you rushed back. You’re really clingy to your wife." Celeste covered her mouth, teasing him.

Being teased by his sister, Morgan’s ears turned a bit red, "Sis, I’ll leave Joy with you. I’m going to find Willow."

After all, his mother-in-law came. He must go and entertain her.

"Okay, go ahead."

Morgan stepped out and took out his phone to call his secretary, instructing him to immediately find Serena Sterling’s current location.

...

Inside the treatment room.

Willow Crawford lay on a rattan chair while Serena Sterling draped a blanket over her, "Willow, are you ready? I’m going to hypnotize you now."

Willow nodded firmly, "Mom, I’m ready."

"I used to fear restoring my memory, thinking past memories were bad and would cause me pain. But now it’s different. I feel the overwhelming love Morgan Ashworth has given me, love that has been there from the past to the present. I don’t want to miss any moment of it."

Serena Sterling nodded, "Okay."

Quickly, Willow entered a hypnotic state, witnessing countless scenes as an observer, the youthful love between young Miles Linden and young Willow Crawford.

Then they slowly grew up; he became Morgan Ashworth, and she became the First Princess, a connection between them that couldn’t be cut or unraveled.

Later, they were together; she became his woman, bore his son, and married him.

But he was poisoned, and she needed to use blood from her heart to save him.

As life was about to end, she let go of his and their son’s hands.

Yet, he and his son always held her tightly.

On a sunny day, he was the young man of her dreams.

On a certain day of a certain month in a certain year,

Looking back,

he was already her love that even time couldn’t steal away.
