" Where are you going ? " Roderick had given strict instructions to keep an eye on Madeleine and not let her leave the villa again . " Home ," Madeleine replied . " Home ? Do you have another home , Mrs. Livingston ? " Kirsten asked , bewildered . " No. I mean I'm going back to my parents ' house . " Another home ? What kind of woman did Kirsten think she was ? Kirsten thought she must have misheard . It had been so long since Madeleine had last visited her parents . Though thoroughly puzzled , she arranged for the driver to take Madeleine to the Mosley's house , repeatedly reminding him not.

to let her slip away during the journey . She felt a profound responsibility to protect this family of three , to guard Roderick and Kevin's happiness . Chapter 5 As she sat in the car watching the scenery pass by , a strange feeling settled over Madeleine . " Are you sure this is the way to my parents ' house ? " The driver straightened up immediately . " Yes , ' Mrs. Livingston . This is the shortest route to Splendor Estates . " Splendor Estates ? Perhaps her parents had moved .

Maybe the family business had thrived over the years , and they had upgraded from their townhouse to a more luxurious gated community . Half an hour later, the car came to a smooth stop . But Madeleine remained seated , utterly dumbfounded . How come her parents lived in such an ordinary - looking residential complex ? " Which building are they in ? " she asked . She felt her throat tighten . The driver's gaze in the rearview mirror held a trace of contempt . He wasn't surprised . After all , it had been years since her last visit . Of course , she would have forgotten the address .

Chapter 5 " Building 3 , Room 803. " " Thank you . " Madeleine nodded and hurried out of the car , rushing toward her parents ' home . As she walked , memories of her childhood with her parents came flooding back , making her nose twitch with emotion . She had been absent from their lives for eight years . Would they be upset when they found out ? It was an aged community with minimal security . Soon , she stood before their door . After taking a few deep breaths to steady herself , she pressed the doorbell . " Who is it ? Coming ." It was Harold Mosley , her father .

A wave of joy surged through her , and she resolved to give him the warmest hug . A few seconds later , the door opened . The sight of Harold , who had aged significantly , brought tears to her eyes . Chapter 5 " Dad ... " A loud bang cut her off . She had just reached out to hug him when the door was slammed shut , nearly catching her hands . She stood there , blinking in confusion . What had just happened ? Did he see her as some kind of plague ? She immediately began pressing the doorbell repeatedly , shouting , " Dad ! Open the door ! It's me , Madeleine !

" Inside , Harold stood frozen , rooted to the spot . Clarissa Hatfield , Madeleine's mother , walked over from the balcony where she had been watering the plants . " What's going on ? Why are you standing here ? " " You won't believe what just happened ," Harold said , his tone graver than she had ever heard . " Listen to who's outside . " As the sound of Madeleine's voice registered , Clarissa was so Chapter 5 startled that she dropped her watering can. " What's she doing here ? " Madeleine kept pounding on the door .

Worried about the neighbors ' complaints , Harold and Clarissa reluctantly opened it . " Dad ! Mom ! " Her eyes already red and brimming with tears , Madeleine threw herself into Harold's arms with such force she nearly knocked him over . Harold looked down at her , keenly noting the nasal tone in her greeting . Could this really be their Madeleine ? " I thought you didn't want me anymore ... " Madeleine sobbed uncontrollably , smearing tears and snot all over his shirt . After a while , she let go of him and hugged Clarissa , who was still stunned . " Mom! You've lost so much weight ...

" Chapter S It was only after she had stained both her parents ' clothes with her tears and snot that she finally pulled back , still sniffling . " Why are you looking at me like that ? " They were both staring at her , their eyes wide with a mixture of shock , confusion , and a trace of lingering fear . Fear ? Had she done something horrible ? The thought compelled her to confess everything . " Dad , Mom , I've lost my memory . Whatever I did these past few years , please , believe me , I never meant for any of it to happen . I can't remember a single thing . " " You've lost your memory ?

" Harold and Clarissa exchanged a glance . As hard as it was to believe , it was the only explanation that made sense . After all , the real Madeleine - the one they had come to know in recent years - would never have come to visit them , let alone hugged them like this . " Then ... what do you remember ? " Chapter S " I remember us living in that villa when I was eighteen . Dad would always come home for dinner no matter how busy he was , and Mom would dress up every day to drive me to school .
