The Mystery of Lost Memory
Introductions

“Sierra, who is this?” ask Sierra in astonishment.

With an eye gesture, Sierra forced Karen to stand with him. The confused Karen stood up, looking at Sophie full of conjecture. It seemed like Karen could guess this old woman in front of her. With her maximum grooming, all-round luxury items on each side of her body, a sharp eye gaze that reminded Karen of Martin.

“Mrs Sophie, how are you?” Sierra is shifting the topic. She smiled widely and was very friendly, at the old lady who was still astonished looking at Karen.

But Sophie didn't seem to want to say Sierra's greeting. He instead remained focused on the figure of Karen, who stood beautiful with luxurious clothes and charming makeup.

“Looks like I'm no stranger to you,” muttered Sophie, frowning to remember something. “But, where ya?” mumbling again.

Aware of Karen's status that could have been discovered, Sierra immediately took over with a loud voice of laughter.

“Mistress, introduce, she's Karen White,” Sierra instantly shut up, realizing that she just slipped Ray's last name on Karen's.

While Karen who realized that, could only stare at Sierra did not understand. He had no idea why Sierra was so panicked when this old woman in front of him remembered Karen.

Unexpectedly, Sophie nodded after hearing Sierra's reply. Then he smiled kindly, and instead reached out his hand to shake hands with Sierra and Karen in turn.

“Oh, it turns out this is your friend,” Sophie said. “Kukira .. “ Once again he stared at Sierra and Karen alternately. “I guess she's Martin's girlfriend, Sierra,” Sophie laughs stiffly, offset by Sierra's laughter which is also equally stiff.

Sierra doesn't know what to say. Maybe it's best for now that Sophie doesn't know about Karen's true identity. Maybe it was enough Martin to explain everything to his mother.

Brak!!

Sophie slams hard on Martin's workspace door, and walks in, unconcerned with the employees' views. Martin, who was serious about his work, immediately complained loudly when he saw his mother, without excuse, enter his room. Martin immediately told some employees who were discussing with him to get out of the room. And now there lived Sophie, with Martin, who was unceasingly grumbling with her mother.

“Martin, until when will you be like this?!” exclaim Sophie, ruffled waist.

“What else, anyway, Bu?” sue Martin not happy.

“Originally, I met Sierra at the mall,” Sophie's story. “And he brought a very beautiful girlfriend,”

Martin would have realized if what his mother meant was Karen. But he still did not understand the purpose of his mother's statement. So what Martin did next was to be silent, listening to every word of his mother to then conclude.

“When there are beautiful women near you, you can ask Sierra to find a beautiful woman, like his friend earlier. Why did you never open up? How long do you want this, Martin?” sophie's nagging at length. “Your father is threatening to find a new wife and the only way to defeat her is to give birth to your child, aka her grandson!”

“Everyone will be more sympathetic to us, so there is no reason for Paul to let us go,” continued Sophie fiery. “We must unite to rule Paul's treasure, no matter what,”

Martin took a deep breath. Then lay his body on a large, soft sofa in the corner of his study. Martin's eyes smiled widely, looking like a sneer.

“So, Mom wants me to bring someone to marry me?” ask Martin with a heavy tone.

“Of course! The sooner the better. Especially if you can have children soon,”

Martin smiled again. He showed me his white teeth. Then with one look, Martin spoke to his mother.

“I'll bring my future wife to family dinner. Tonight,” said Martin. “Don't forget to invite Old Man,”

He also smelled the delicious aroma of the cuisine in the kitchen. Through his sense of smell, Martin follows the direction of that scent. In the kitchen she saw Karen who was busy preparing dinner. The woman's appearance looked very sexy, with an apron and hair tied together. Makes Martin suddenly excited.

“Darling, what are you doing again?” Martin wrapped both of his arms around Karen's waist.

Karen smiled, although a little careless. His habit when he was with Ray was not going to touch each other before washing hands. But when with Martin, the habit was destroyed instantly with the attitude of Martin who seemed to want to immediately grab Karen's body.

“Martin, do you wash your hands first?”

Martin immediately took off his embrace, and looked at Karen in astonishment. “Make what?” tanyakanya.

Karen finally nodded. He realized, not all men will have habits like Ray who is always crazy cleanliness.

“Come get ready, Darling,” take Martin.

“Where? I've been making dinner, you know,”

Martin shook his head with regret. “Sorry, yes, just told me. But we have a dinner appointment with my parents,”

“What?” Karen couldn't hide her shock. “For what, Martin?”

Martin smiled sweetly, grabbed Karen's hands and kissed her softly. “I want to introduce you to my parents,”

Karen's eyes widened, slightly teary. He thought his relationship with Martin was just a matter of satisfaction in bed. Karen didn't expect Martin to go this far.

“T-but, me and Ray .. we are not yet official .. “

“I know,” interrupted Martin, stick his index finger to Karen's lips, as if not like when Karen again called Ray's name. “I've planned this carefully. I've bribed the judge to launch your divorce proceedings,”

No, it's not. That's not what Karen wanted. He prayed that the divorce process with Ray would be difficult and long, hoping that there would be a way back with Ray. But when she heard Martin's last words, Karen felt hopeless. Everything in the world that he and Ray had fought desperately for, had to be shattered. No tears had dripped, a little down smoothly through Karen's cheeks.

Martin hurriedly wiped those tears. “Nothing to cry about, dear. You have to move forward,”

***

The house of the Martin family, more precisely the house of Sophie Willis, is very magnificent with high pillars and a thousand lights that seem to penetrate the sky. Karen in amazement stepped one after another, passing through each of the most expensive marble floors, towards the dining room as both Martin's parents had been waiting for their arrival.

At the sight of Karen's beauty wrapped in a knee-length black dress, white earrings and necklaces and hair unraveled, leaving everyone stunned. Even Sophie clenched her hands to her mouth, so amazed by the beauty of Karen. Of course, the happiest right now is Martin, because both his parents praised the beauty of his woman.

But that doesn't apply to Paul. The tall old man frowned when he saw Karen. He even held back his smile, only to observe Karen from head to toe.

“I never forget a single beautiful woman I've met,” said Paul, amid a lavish dinner prepared by the chef.

Karen smiled, saying thank you.

“Everything, I also can't forget your face .. Karen White,”

Paul raised a glass of his wine, toasted to Karen and drank a sip. His eyes pierced into Karen's heart.
