Later that week, Diana found herself with a free day. It was a good chance to get out and about, so she took Abby to the supermarket.

As it was the weekend, there weren't many people there. Abby walked around in the dairy aisle for a long time while Diana waited patiently for her to choose.

"Mummy, can I have this?" Abby asked hopefully, picking up a big box of cheddar cheese.

Diana laughed out loud. Abby had been obsessed with cheese lately; she couldn't stop eating it! Curiously, Diana didn't like cheese at all. She thought it must have come from Brian.

Meanwhile, Brian happened to be shopping in the same supermarket. He would hold a celebratory party that night, but his assistant was busy, so Brian went to the supermarket himself.

As he came out from the alcohol aisle, Brian spotted Diana over in the next section. When he was about to go and greet her, he heard a child call Diana "Mummy."

Brian squinted his eyes in shock. Was she already a mother? When he looked at the kid, Brian got an even greater surprise. He had seen that kid before. Gazing at the child's face, which was so similar to his own, Brian was unable to move.

He took out his phone and called Ken.

"Hello? Ken, can you do me a favor? I need information on Diana Anderson."

Ken was intrigued.

Boss, why do you need her information?"

"She has a daughter! And the kid looks like me!"

Ken ended the call and stayed exactly where he was, frozen in shock.

Sybil had just managed to get their baby off to sleep. When she crept out of the room, she found Ken looking slightly distressed.

"What's the matter with you?"

"Sybil, Diana had her baby!"

Soon, it was the day of the banquet. As planned, Diana accompanied Chaney. Though what she thought was just a small event actually turned out to be quite a big deal, so naturally, Brian was there too.

Seeing him, Diana was nervous and unconsciously held Chaney's hand.

"What is it?" Chaney asked worriedly.

Diana shook her head slightly. Her face was slightly pale.

After seeing Diana walk in, Brian couldn't help looking at her. He was irritated to see that she was together with a man. He was eager to ask Diana who the guy was, but he repressed that d.e.s.i.r.e and chatted with the people around him.

Diana escaped from Brian's gaze by hiding behind Chaney's large frame. Still, after a while, she started to feel dizzy.

"Diana! Are you okay?"

Diana shook her head. "I need to go to the bathroom."

Diana bundled into the ladies' room and splashed her face with cold water. When she raised her head, she found someone standing behind her in the mirror!

"Brian! Why are you here?" Diana shouted.

Brian approached her and asked with a serious look, "Who is that guy?"

Diana knew he was talking about Chaney. She walked past Brian and uttered coldly, "It's none of your business."

Out of anger and jealousy, Brian grabbed Diana by her chin.

His harsh grip was painful, and Diana cried out.

"Brian, you're hurting me!"

Hearing that, Brian lowered his hand. He didn't know why he had lost control so quickly. He was famous for always keeping a poker face, whatever the situation.

"I am sorry." Brian stepped back and apologized.

"Diana, let's leave this place." Chaney reached out his hand, which Diana gratefully accepted. As Chaney led her away, Diana didn't look back at Brian even once.

****

After the banquet, Chaney drove Diana home. On the way, he couldn't help asking about Brian.

"Diana, who was that guy?" He could feel that Diana's mood had changed since meeting him.

"He…" Diana had no idea how to explain who Brian was. She hesitated.

"Diana, can you tell me, is he Abby's father?"

"Chaney, please," Diana murmured. She didn't want to recall what had happened before.

Chaney sighed and stopped asking.

"Diana, I love you. I am serious."

Diana didn't know how to reply, especially after what was going on with Brian. "Chaney, you're like a brother to me but… nothing more."

"I know that… I have always known that…" Chaney murmured. "But Diana, as long as you are not married, I will not give up."

He stared at Diana as he spoke, with a determined look in his eyes.

"Chaney, I am a mother," Diana started.

"Diana, don't use Abby as an excuse. I want to take care of both of you."

Chaney started to raise his voice now. He had been shocked and sad when first learning of Diana's pregnancy. But he had supported her throughout, and indeed he truly loved Abby. It was impossible for him to leave them now.

Finally, they arrived back at Diana's apartment. It was good timing from Diana's point of view, as the conversation was getting increasingly uncomfortable.

"Goodnight, Diana."

"Goodnight." Diana hugged him and stepped out of the car.

Chaney stayed in the car and stared at Diana until she entered the house.

At that moment, Brian's phone rang.

"Boss, I have looked into that matter you asked me about. The little girl is Diana's daughter. She was born in France," Ken said.

"Okay, got it." Brian ended the call. His suspicions were correct!

He knew that he had lost a piece of his memory. What happened during that time? Why had Diana been showing up in his dreams these last two years?

Sitting in his office room, Brian kept smoking until the sun came up. He couldn't wait anymore. Standing up, Brian walked downstairs and drove to Ken's house.

It was still early in the morning. Sybil, Ken, and their son were still in their sweet dreams when Brian knocked on the door.

Ken was irritated to be woken up so early in the morning. But as it was Brian, he had to restrict his anger.

And, had no such reservation, had no such reservation about expressing herself. She swore at Brian for showing up uninvited.

"What is the relationship between Diana and me?" Brian ignored her anger; he was after her answers.

"Have you remembered anything?" Sybil asked in shock. Two years ago, the doctor said that Brian shouldn't be over-stimulated or stressed; otherwise, he was at risk of fainting again. So, none of them told him anything about Diana.

"What should I recall?" Brian frowned at Sybil. Judging from her reluctance, he was sure that he must have known Diana before.

"Nothing," Sybil blurted out.

"Sybil, Brian knows, " Ken said.
