Her pupils dilated with shock.
That girl was herself. The boy who was saved by her was young Dylan.
The scene changed again.
The young girl left the burning house and wandered aimlessly on a strange road.
The sky thundered several times, lightning flashed, and rain poured down!
She crossed her arms, walking in the rain. There was no umbrella, no sympathy, not even a shelter.
The wind and rain beat down on her thin body.
Finally, at the dawn of the day, the rain stopped, but she collapsed on the side of the road.
After a while, a kind passer-by found the girl lying on the side of the road, ran to help her up.
"The little girl has a fever!"
Then the scene changed again.
This time, the girl grew up.
Dylan appeared again in her life after ten years.
They met, knew each other, fell in love, and then parted…
The days they spent together passed in front of her eyes quickly...
The memory buried in her mind all came back.
***
Savannah awoke from her coma with a start.
She found herself on the bed of a clean ward, the moonlight streaming in through the window.
Her nose suddenly stung, and she began to weep.
It was all coming back to her.
She remembered everything.
Memories of that night when she saved young Dylan and those days when she was with Dylan years ago all came back.
Jacob heard the movement and pushed the door in. He was relieved to see Savannah finally wake up after a whole day and night.
"Jacob..." With tears in her eyes, Savannah looked up at him and suddenly remembered something. She gasped and covered her belly.
"Don't worry, the baby is fine," Jacob knew what she was worried about. "But the fetus is still in an unstable condition. You must have a good rest, keep a good mood, and avoid violent exercises."
Savannah nodded with relief. "How's Kaiden?" she asked.
"Kaiden was protected well by you. Don't worry, he was just a little scared and already went back home. He's all right now."
Savannah breathed a sigh of relief and then hesitated, "well, the engagement party..."
"It's been canceled. You and Kaiden have had an accident, and old Sterling nearly fainted in the party, so the engagement has been suspended," Jacob said.
Savannah's curled finger slowly loosened. Perhaps it was not bad to have a car accident, at least the engagement party had to be postponed because of this.
Jacob gave her a general examination and handed her some bread and hot milk.
"You must be hungry. Eat a little, and I will ask the nurse to give you further examination tomorrow." Then he was ready to leave.
"Jacob, wait a minute." Savannah stopped him.
"What's the matter?"
What she wanted now was not food or examination, but…
"Jacob, I want to see him. Can you ask him to come?" She whispered.
Jacob paused.
Dylan didn't come to look at her yesterday when she was in a coma.
Would he come this time?
But he could not refuse her. Finally, he nodded, "I will tell him tomorrow morning. Have a good rest."
Savannah smiled, looking a little bit lonely.

The next day, Savannah waited in the ward all day.
Finally, night fell, and she was about to give up when the door opened.
Dylan came in, letting in a blast of cold air.
"Dylan..." She raised herself in surprise and looked at him longingly.
She had a different feeling when she saw him today because she had remembered those days she was with him years ago.
She never thought her first meeting with him was not in the five-star hotel but on that fire night.
The girl he had been looking for turned out to be her!
She was even jealous of that girl...
"You want to see me?" Dylan opened his mouth in an aloof manner, keeping a certain distance from her.
She stared at him, biting her lip, trying to calm her voice. "I remember, it all comes back to me now."
There was a long silence.
"So?" His handsome face was covered with unconcern.
He had wished she would remember him.
But now, it was meaningless.
Even if she remembered the time when they were together, it could not change the fact that she had deceived him and made use of him.
Savannah gazed at him and continued, "I mean... I remember everything from my childhood until now. In addition to those days we were together three years ago, I had lost some of my memory when I was a child..."
He gave a slight frown.
"When I was eight years old, my mother disappeared. After that, my father asked private investigators to look for my mother without stopping for a day. I had been missing my mother so much that I always woke up crying in the middle of the night. Two years later, I heard my dad on the phone with a private investigator, who said he'd seen my mom in Chicago... I secretly went to Chicago and wanted to find my mother, according to the address my father wrote down in his notebook. It was night when I found a wealthy neighborhood. There were too many villas, and I was so confused that I broke into one of them... By accident, I saw the garden behind the villa on fire, and a boy fainted in the pavilion from the smoke." She said quietly.
Dylan's face changed.
"I didn't think too much about it. I went to him and dragged him out of the pavilion to a safe place. When I heard his family coming, I was afraid of being taken as a thief and ran away."
"Are you trying to say you're the girl I've been looking for? Then why didn't you say anything three years ago?" Dylan narrowed his eyes slightly.
"After I left the villa, I continued to look for my mother. But that neighborhood was too big for me, and I lost my way. Later in the night, it rained heavily. I was caught in the rain all night and fainted at the roadside. The next morning, I was sent to the hospital by a kind passer-by. The police came to me and contacted my father. My father came overnight and took me back home. I had a fever for a whole week, and the fever turned to meningitis. When I recovered, I suffered a partial loss of memory and forgot I had gone to Chicago and saved you." Savannah rattled this off as she lowered her head.
Then she held her breath, waiting for his response nervously.
There was another long silence.
