~Arya~

“Arya, darling.” A woman' s voice rang out. She looked familiar, but I couldn't for the life of me remember her name. It was a good thing they thought I had amnesia. She took my hand in hers, a wide smile lining her face. “So it’s true. You’re alive. I’m so glad to see you again.”

Edgar leaned into me. “That is an executive of your dad’s corporation. Smile, be welcoming."

I took the initiative, letting her squeeze my hand. “Good evening, ma’am.”

“Oh! Her hand flew to her chest. “You don’t remember me. But that’s okay. It’s only a matter of time. Your parents have the best medical team you can find. I’m sure you'll get your memories back very soon.”

“You’re so kind. Thank you.”

She left, giving way to someone else. A man with a grey beard I hadn't seen before. “I have heard so much about you, madamoiselle.” His thick french accent coated his words. “It’s great to finally put a face to the name.”

I looked to Edgar for a hint, but he was just as lost.

“And you’re?”

  • She Came Back to Burn: The Return of the Amnesiac Wife.   ~FIFTY-SIX: DEVOTED FANBASE

    ~Lucien~“I admit that I shouldn't have broken the girl code by falling in love with a man my friend was once involved with, but you all know how hard it is to control our feelings. Besides, she was married to someone else. She dumped Lucien for her current husband. He didn’t move on from her for a whole year, despite the fact that I was by his side. When he finally did, it was with me.”Cassie stopped talking, wiping her flowing tears with a napkin. She waited for a full minute to tick by before she went on. “I thought Arya would have moved on by now. But she didn’t. Instead, she has her eyes on my man. I didn’t come out here to curry pity from my fans and well-wishers. I just don’t think keeping quiet is worth it anymore. Is she trying to get back at me for getting involved with Lucien even though she's already married. She has memory loss, yet she has no problem seducing my fiancee in public. How shameless can she get?”That was all I could watch. I slammed my hand down on the Pau

  • She Came Back to Burn: The Return of the Amnesiac Wife.   ~FIFTY-FIVE: AFFAIR

    ~Arya~–AMNESIAC WIFE CAUGHT IN AN INTIMATE MOMENT WITH LUCIEN VALE DURING CHARITY AUCTION.My stomach dropped. Beneath the incriminating headline was a photo of lucien and i at the event of the evening. Whoever captured it made it seem like we were kissing. Even though we weren’t, it didn’t make me feel any better. It was with great restraints that we stopped each other from giving into our desires back in that corner.The pictures were clear. Our faces were clearly visible in it. There was no denying it. I knew what this meant. It was a huge scandal for Lucien and I. Once again, I had dragged him into my mess.“Is it true?” Lina withdrew her phone, folding her arms. “Are you really having an affair with someone else?”I didn't reply. She had no right to know anything about me.She scoffed, tucking her hair behind her ear with a groan. “You’re quite something, Arya. You have a husband that loves you enough to risk so much for you, yet you have your eyes on another man. A man who is e

  • She Came Back to Burn: The Return of the Amnesiac Wife.   ~FIFTY-FOUR: SECRETS

    ~Arya~I padded over to her in an instant, leading her away so Edgar and Lina wouldn't hear her voice. Without a word, she followed, glancing behind her in curiosity. “I was thirsty," I said as soon as we were out of earshot. “It seems Lina and Edgar are having a serious conversation in the kitchen. I don’t want us to intrude.”Her brows furrowed as she gave me a staredown. “What were they talking about?”I parted m y lips to reply, then clamped them shut last minute. Pamela was someone I could trust, but that didn’t mean it was safe to go blabbering about everything to her. We hadn’t had a proper conversation since she moved in, mainly because I was afraid of making a slip up. She took great care of me growing up. She was like my second mother, someone I stayed in touch with until my parents disowned me.I had to be careful. Not everyone needed to know my secrets. “I wasn’t able to hear,” I replied, looking away from her scrutinizing eyes. “I don’t think it’s right to eavesdrop on th

  • She Came Back to Burn: The Return of the Amnesiac Wife.   ~FIFTY-THREE: BUGS

    ~Arya~Edgar couldn’t stop pacing when we got home. I sat in the bed, my eyes glued to my phone as I scrolled through it while he took gats repeated steps in front of me, furious. I couldn’t tell what he was angry about, I didn’t want to.“Fuck that asshole,” he cussed. “Who does he think he is to come into my life and try to be what he’s not.”“It’s been a long night, Edgar,” I muttered without taking my eyes off my phone. “You should take a shower and sleep. Whatever grievances you have will be tackled tomorrow.”“Oh I do have a lot of grievances,” he let out. “First off, your parents. What the hell was that?”I glanced up from my phone. “What are you talking about?”“I put everything on the line to buy a lousy artwork from them, yet they treated me like trash, right in front of all those people. Didn’t you tell me to be rest assured that your father would like me?”“I said he may like you. Emphasis on ‘may’. You can’t expect me to know what he’d like when I don't even remember anyt

  • She Came Back to Burn: The Return of the Amnesiac Wife.   ~FIFTY-TWO: DON'T RUIN THINGS

    ~Lucien~The silence that followed was thick enough to slice through. Arya froze, her gaze fixed on me absently. She looked like a mess, her dress was wet, stained with champagne. Cassie had gone too far this time. I would never let her have the opportunity to do that to Arya again.“Why are you so surprised, Arya?” My mom was beside me now, her tone laced with disdain. “You’re shocked that a man who saw you as his oxygen felt worthless when you dumped him for another? What the hell is so shocking to you?”“What did you just say?” Tears were lodged in Matilda's eyes. She took slow steps towards me, her lips quivering. The only person who didn’t seem like he was hearing about my suicide attempts for the first time was George, which was understandable. He had connections to a wide network of information. “Oh my god!” Matilda's hands flew to her lips. “Oh god, I can't believe this. You didn’t deserve any of it, Lucien. I’m so sorry.”“Matilda, it’s fine.”“No, it’s not…” she cried. “I wa

  • She Came Back to Burn: The Return of the Amnesiac Wife.   ~FIFTY-ONE: SUICIDE

    ~Arya~I looked up at her, totally puzzled. Her eyes were narrowed into slits, filled with hatred. She threw the glass to the side and swayed drowsily. She was drunk. Cassia was mean, but she was careful too. A talented actress with a reputable character would never try to make the mistake of dousing someone else with champagne if she was sober. She slumped to her knees in front of her, staring at me through thick mascaraed lashes.“Shouldn’t you have pity on me?” she slurred. “I know I look pathetic to you for clinging to a man that doesn’t want to belong to me, but shouldn’t you feel sorry for me, at least?” she gripped my ankles, hunching forward as her hair matted to her face. “Can’t you leave Lucien alone, please?”Everyone stopped to watch the spectacle in front of them. Lucien was by my side in an instant, helping me to my feet. My parents stared at Cassie in awe. Edgar looked like he was enjoying it till Lucien stepped in.“What do you think you’re doing, Cassandra?” Lucie
