A Love Forgotten Novel by Webfic

For a brief moment, Jocelyn’s facade of vulnerability faltered, and I could clearly see the malice lurking in her eyes. It was evident that she was no ordinary person.

Elijah was entirely unaware that she had him under her influence. He probably believed her interest was insignificant. Little did he know, he was entangled with someone incredibly dangerous.

If Jocelyn could snoop through Elijah’s phone, it meant she had access to many of his business secrets, company plans, and even financial details. As this realization sank in, I instinctively took a step back.

Jocelyn then said, “Ms. York, Ms. Stuart, I came here personally to express my sincerity. I want to reconcile with you.”

Before Teri could respond, I frowned and said, “Ms. Cornell, if this is about your earlier suggestion, we don’t need to discuss it any further. That’s a matter between Elijah and me.

“I also have no interest in being friends with you, let alone reconciling. We were never on good terms to begin with.”

Teri looked ready to applaud my words.

However, Jocelyn replied calmly, “Ms. York, even though we aren’t friends and past misunderstandings have created some hostility between us, avoiding the issue won’t resolve anything.

“If you genuinely want to divorce Elijah, shouldn’t you confront it openly?”

Confused, I asked, “What do you mean? I don’t understand.”NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

Jocelyn smiled sweetly. “It means you need to convince the public that your marriage is over. You have to everyone believe that you truly want a divorce. Only then will Elijah take your intentions seriously.”

After making her point, she asked, “Ms. York, don’t you think this approach makes sense?”

Teri, standing nearby, interjected, “Ari, don’t fall for her tricks! She’s definitely up to no good.”

I was deep in thought as Jocelyn continued, “Ms. York, your past mistakes have caused Elijah to completely lose trust in you. He believes you’re just throwing a tantrum at this point.”

I asked, “He said he wouldn’t divorce me, didn’t he?”

A flicker of resentment and frustration crossed Jocelyn’s face as she replied coolly, “Yes. Elijah said that divorcing you would be too costly, both emotionally and financially. He refuses to even consider it.”

Confused, I questioned, “Emotionally? What feelings does he even have left for me?”

Jocelyn’s expression wavered. “I’m not sure. Regardless, I know my visit may seem presumptuous, but I hope you’ll think about what I’ve said.” With that, she handed me an elegantly designed invitation.

As I glanced at it, I saw it was for a welcome home party. I weighed the decision of whether to toss it aside in front of Jocelyn or wait until she had left.

Jocelyn said softly, “This is a welcome home party that Elijah organized for me. I hope you’ll dress up and bring a date.”

She blinked at me once before walking away.

As soon as she left, Teri quickly closed the door. Rubbing her arms, she exclaimed, “Wow! Jocelyn is something else. She had the nerve to come here and tell you how to get rid of Elijah! I should have recorded that to show him.”

I shook my head. “But don’t you think she made some valid points?”

Teri waved her hand dismissively. “Arl, wake up! Don’t let her manipulate you. She definitely has ulterior motives for inviting you.”

I touched the invitation and asked, “What if I brought Logan with me?”

Teri laughed in surprise. “That’s a brilliant ideal It would drive Elijah crazy.”

Then, a realization struck her. “Wait. Is that what Jocelyn is after?”

I replied calmly, “Ultimately, Jocelyn is just desperate to become Mrs. Linden. To achieve that, she wouldn’t think twice about encouraging me to provoke Elijah into getting a divorce.”

Teri sighed. “She’s truly ruthless. It’s no wonder you never stood a chance against her before.”

I gazed at the invitation, its bright colors almost blinding. A familiar tightness gripped my chest.

Before my memory loss, I must have felt heartbroken, I could only watch helplessly as the manoved hosted a lavish welcome–home party for another woman.

I wasn’t sure how deeply I had loved Elijah before my memory loss, but even without those memories, a persistent pain and dull ache remained in my heart.

My feelings for him ran deep, and I couldn’t shake the sense of injustice I felt for myself.

That day, Logan arrived quite late.
