Chapter 311 - 311: We Knew Each Other (2/2)

She wanted to ask him but she was shy to voice it out. So she just kept silent. Black Shadow once again took his steps, pulling her towards the benches.

He released her hand then he held both her shoulders, pushing her down and making her sit down.

”Stay here. Don't leave. Wait for me. I am gonna buy some drinks first. What do you want to drink?” Black Shadow softly said to her.

She felt like a kid who was being instructed by her parents to stay and behave while they are not around. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

'Please don't treat me like a kid.'

”Hmm. Ok. I understand. Just buy me a soda.” Marie responded to him.

Black Shadow nodded and flashed another charming smile before he left her. It did not take long when he returned, holding a plastic bag that contained snacks and drinks.

”Why do I feel like this is a date?” Marie mumbled as she watched Black Shadow's figure walking towards her. Her face heated up once again at that thought. She's blushing and she couldn't help it.

Black Shadow sat down beside her, giving her the snacks he bought. She thanked him. Then Black Shadow opened up the canned soda before giving it to her.

'[email protected]! He's thoughtful too!'

Marie gladly accepted it.

After much thought, she could no longer keep her silence. Marie spoke up to confront him.

”Brandon… Do we know each other? I am sorry but I am suffering from amnesia. I couldn't remember my memories in the past.” There was a hint of sadness and disappointment in her voice as she said those words.

If they knew each other before then she wanted to remember it. But too bad, she couldn't remember anything. That's what made her sad and feel disappointed.

Black Shadow somehow sensed that she was feeling down right now.

”Don't force yourself to remember the past. You are doing great now. Don't be sad. Everything happened for a reason.” he was trying to console her.

”I know… but not remembering those memories, I feel like I am incomplete. There are lots of missing pieces. I lost half of myself.” Marie didn't know why she was suddenly opening up to him, sharing her true feelings with him.

Black Shadow clenched his fists as he felt a tinge of pain deep inside his heart. He felt responsible for what happened to Marie. He was the reason why she was hurt and lost her memory. He was the reason why she was suffering like this.

”I am sorry… I truly am.” He mumbled.

Marie was stunned in a moment. She didn't want him to feel sorry for her.

'Does he feel pity towards me?'

Marie let out a soft giggle to lighten the mood.

”Dummy! Why are you apologizing to me? What happened to me is not your fault. I was a policewoman before. That's why things like that happened to me. By the way, you didn't answer my question yet.” Marie said, hitting Black Shadow on his shoulder.

Allen told Marie that what happened to her was related to the case they were handling before. It was Catseye's Case. He also informed her that she was playing undercover at that time. That's the only thing she knew.

Since Marie's parents didn't want her to think about her work, they requested her colleagues not to talk or mention to her about things related to her work as an agent.

As Black Shadow heard her, he turned to look at her straight in her eyes.

”I brought you here because this was the place where I spent the most memorable night with you… watching the night skies together, star gazing while talking about life and stuff.”

”Yes, we knew each other before...” He said and paused for a moment.

Marie was taken aback by that revelation. She had not yet recovered when Black Shadow spoke again a shocking thing to her.

”I am your man… ” he added.

Marie: ”...”
