CHAPTER 14

Rhianne did not dwell much on the reality that she had met with the female lead. She remembered that Candice Dy was an orphan and adopted by a kind couple. After some years, she will meet the male lead and that will be the start of their romance. But Rhianne did not expect that Candice was an orphan from the Welfare Agency that her mother is managing.

After that day, Rhianne focused on learning again. Before the school year officially starts, she started reading the books available in their library. Her family was surprised when they her often staying in the library, but they did not say anything about it. Before her accident, Rhianne disliked reading books a lot. But looking at Rhianne who became interested in reading books, her family silently supported her.

One day, a maid informed them that they have a sudden visitors. Rhianne was scared that Andrew is the one visiting their house. But when the maid explained that their sudden visitors were Dr. Calvin and his brother, she let out a relieved sigh. When Rhianne goes down to the receiving room, Dr. Calvin was nowhere to be found, but his brother was sitting on the sofa alone and looked in her direction.

"...Hello."

Rhianne will be rude if she ignored him and decided to greet him. The boy looked at her and crossed his arm on his chest. Rhianne noticed that his eyes were now both hazel brown. She was pretty sure that the boy has an emerald color on his left eye.

"Are you wearing a contact lens?" Rhianne asked.

It was too late when she realized what she had just asked him. Rhianne was sure that the boy is very conscious of his eyes. She was about to say sorry when the boy nodded his head.

"It would be a hassle if other people keep on looking at me."

Rhianne blinked her eyes in surprise but still nodded her head in understanding.

"I heard you have amnesia."

"Ah?"

Rhianne wondered why this boy was trying to make a conversation with her. She thought that the boy hated her, but it does not look like that. Rhianne nodded her head again to confirm what he had just said.

"No wonder you act so weird when we met again at my house."

Rhianne did not say anything to refute his words. How can she act normal in front of him if she does not know what was happening in her surroundings? She does not have any recollection of Rhianne Cartel's previous memories. And besides, she is too busy to adapt herself to this world.

"Follow me." The boy said and started walking without waiting for her answer.

'This is my house, you know? Why are you acting as if you are the owner of this place?'

Even though she was complaining, Rhianne still followed the boy until they reach the garden. Rhianne was confused about why the boy has brought him here. The boy pointed his finger on the roses and looked at her.

"Is it beautiful?"

"Of course."

"Then you know that you should keep yourself away from these plants?" He asked again. "Right?"

"...No?"

"Do you still want to live in peace?" The boy questioned her with a hint of annoyance in his voice.

Of course, she still wants to live. But Rhianne did not know what the boy was trying to say to her. The flowers in their garden are beautiful and their gardener takes care of them every day. But because Rhianne was too busy with her new life, she did not have any chance to admire the flowers up-close. She will only look at them through the balcony in her room.

"You are allergic to pollen." The boy said. "Your skin will become red and itchy after having contact with flowers that has a high amount of pollen."

Rhianne frowned at this new information. She does not really know that Rhianne Cartel is allergic to pollen. Her family also did not tell her anything about it. Maybe it just slipped on their mind because her recovery from the pool accident and her amnesia were much more important than her allergies. But something was amiss with this situation.

"How did you know that I am allergic to pollen?"

The boy pursed his lips and did not say anything. How can he forget about this information? When he first learned about her condition, it was already late. He remembered when it caused a huge commotion in their house.

During that time, Rhianne and her family visited their house after receiving the invitation from their family for dinner in their house. The reason for it was they wanted to celebrate Calvin's achievement. He finally got his license to become an official doctor.

Rhianne was only eight years old at that time. He remembered that he thought that she was a living doll and tried to be friends with her. He was actually scared that Rhianne might reject him because of his eyes. But he became happy when Rhianne accepted him as a friend and did not mind his eyes. As a celebration of their friendship, he thought of giving her a gift.

After racking his brain to think about what kind of gift he should give to her, he suddenly thought of their garden. He remembered that a lot of flowers were planted in their garden and all of them are beautiful. He thought that flowers were suited to Rhianne because she is also pretty. So he quickly visited their garden and asked a maid to help him picked a lot of flowers.

When she received the bouquet from him, Rhianne smiled at him and said thank you in a very cute way. Rhianne hugged the bouquet and rubbed her face on the petals. But after a few minutes, Rhianne became fidgety on her seat and started scratching her arms and neck.

Her skin started to have small red spots on her white skin and she kept on sneezing. Her eyes became watery so Rhianne informed her mother that she felt itchy on her skin. She looked like someone tried to bully her with her pitiful appearance at that time. It was a good thing that Calvin was present at that time to check on Rhianne. That was when they learned that Rhianne has a pollen allergy.

After that incident, Rhianne rarely visited their house. He thought that maybe Rhianne does not want to become friends with him anymore. No one blamed him for it. But of course, he felt guilty because he was still the cause of it.

He was actually surprised when he first saw Rhianne visiting their house again after some years. But when he saw her looking at him as if she did not know him, he felt annoyed and mad. So to avoid her, he stayed in the garden thinking that it was the place that she would never dare to visit. But he was shocked when he saw Rhianne trying to touch the flowers in their garden.

Is she not afraid to have those red itchy spots on her skin again?
