Chapter 1255 Turns Out to be Wynter
Later, Reuben learned from a friend that if it hadn’t been for those pills back then, he might have indeed gotten infected.
As Reuben recalled the events of those years, Wynter withdrew her hand. She did not directly answer his question. Instead, her eyes curved into crescent moons with a smile.
“When I first came in and saw you, I was a bit surprised. I
wondered if we had met somewhere before. You donated supplies to Southdale, didn’t you?”
Wynter remembered something while examining Reuben’s body. Many of her memories were missing, just as Atwater had once told her. When she met the right people, some memories would return.
She had always thought Atwater meant she would remember things when she returned to the Quinnell family. She hadn’t thought he was referring to the Whitman family instead.
Reuben’s eyes lit up upon hearing her words. “You were that young lady back then!”
He had thought Wynter looked familiar. It seemed that Wynter was the girl who had given him those life–saving pills!
“It was me.” Wynter also thought it was an amazing coincidence. She tapped her nose, not expecting that she had already had an encounter with Reuben back then.
Reuben straightened his posture. He was thinking of pulling her to sit down, but then remembered his condition and refrained
himself. He didn’t want to pass his illness to others.
“Those were unusual times, I couldn’t find you afterward. I wanted
to thank you personally when the lockdown was lifted, but no one recognized the name you gave me
“Then, I realized you must have been doing good deeds without wanting recognition and gave me a false name.”
Reuben was genuinely happy. “After all the twists and turns, we’ve finally met again.”
“Indeed. Mr. Whitman Senior, your health has declined since I last saw you,” Wynter said, shifting the conversation. “Back then, I advised you not to worry too much, but it seems you didn’t heed my advice.
