The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning

Chapter 906
Stolen feelings never last long. Kai had understood this for a long time. He quietly thought to himself, ‘I’m not the hero in Lana’s
story; Andrew is always the one she cherishes.’
Lana was really hurt when Andrew passed away. The hypnosis helped her forget for a little while, but it was not a fix that would
last forever. If she tried hard to peel away the false memories and look for anything about Andrew, her memories would come
back to her. For now, she remembered things in bits and pieces. Sometimes, she had brief moments when things made sense,
yet she could not recall Andrew’s name.
During that time, Lana did not call out ‘Andrew’ when she woke up. Kai, grappling with his thoughts, admitted to himself he was
self-centered and flawed. He longed to have her close but feared the intimacy; his turmoil left him unsure of his next move.
Kai said in a soothing tone, “You seem worried about starting a family. Let’s not let it trouble us too much. I’ll make more time for
us to be together at home, alright?” He held her hand gently,
blowing on it to warm it up.
Lana said, “It means a lot that you’re here with me, but I wouldn’t want to distract you from your
commitments.”
He tucked her hand into his jacket pocket, reassuring her, “Don’t worry. I’ve been keeping things light at work lately.” He
cherished this opportunity to just be with her, unsure when he might get the chance again once life sped up.
Lana’s first dinner at someone’s home was quite a social affair. Kai and Zach were engrossed in a business conversation,
something Madelyn found utterly uninteresting. Earlier, she had taken her medication, leaving her feeling overheated and slightly
dizzy with a sheen of sweat on her
forehead.
Her doctor had put her on a specific diet. When she went to grab a slice of roast beef, Zach’s hand reached out and stopped her.
“You’re still on the mend. No rich foods for now,” Zach said gently.
Kai laughed and ribbed him, “You’re not worried Madelyn will hold a grudge with rules like that?” He then expertly placed a forkful
of flaky grilled fish onto her plate beside a scoop of buttery

mashed potatoes, “Fish is light and easy; it’s good for you.”
Upon noticing Kai’s gesture, Lana remained silent, She bowed her head slightly and idly moved her fork over her plate, her
discomfort hidden just beneath the surface. Soon after, Kai reached

“Help yourself to more, Lana. It’s not like Zach can’t afford to spoil us a bit; we’re not hurting his pocket. Even without Jardin
Corporation, he’s doing just fine,” Kai said, flashing a teasing smile.
“Madelyn, make a note: from here on out, only take the food you served yourself, okay?” Zach lightly admonished.
Madelyn remained silent, feeling sick and not wanting to start a quarrel. Zach frowned upon seeing the grilled fish on Madelyn’s
plate-the one Kai had placed earlier- and looked like he was about to remove it for her. However, before he could act, she quickly
used her fork to take a bite, ignoring the unwanted help. Zach’s frown grew even more pronounced.
On the table were two fish dishes: one was a lemon-butter baked fish, and the other was grilled, seasoned with herbs. The chef
had been considerate of Lana’s dietary needs due to her pregnancy and had prepared several appropriate options for her. When
the meal concluded, Kai was quick to leave, taking Lana with him without delay.
A maid handed Lana a beautifully wrapped package. “This is a little something from Mrs. Jardin,” she said. “She regrets if the
dinner wasn’t to your satisfaction and sends her apologies. Mrs. Jardin tends to be private and might not seem overly social. She
ensured the chef prepared the dishes you would enjoy tonight.”
Lana felt unexpectedly valued. She had been concerned about possibly causing discomfort with her attendance, yet Madelyn’s
considerate gesture pleasantly surprised her.
