Chapter 977 Did Mom Get Lost?

Besse sometimes feels like Doyle was not a typical prince, who had a weird personality. Although he was different in front of others except her. "Legend has it that there are angels in this world," Doyle said.

She knew his words were to be irrelevant, Besse thought to herself. She didn't stop him from speaking.

"Angels bring blessings to humans."

"And then?" Besse reluctantly agreed with him.

"As long as two people who love each other kiss at the highest point of the Ferris wheel, they will receive her blessing and be together forever."

This excuse was quite ridiculous in Besse's eyes.

"So I want to try and see if it's true." Doyle suddenly stood up. The Ferris wheel shook visibly.

Besse grabbed onto the handrail of the Ferris wheel, feeling scared.

"Doyle don't come over here! It's easy for us to fall off!"

"It'll just tilt a little bit at most. We won't fall off."

"Doyle..."

He had already sat down beside her on one side. The Ferris wheel tilted obviously. In fright, Besse was held tightly by Doyle in his arms. Her heart skipped a beat. "Did you hear me? What I've said." Asked Doyle after some time passed by silently between them.

Besse pursed her lips together tightly as she realized that there wasn't any substantial contact between them yet despite being around each other for three years since she woke up without any memories before then. She had refused many intimate actions from him because everything felt unfamiliar and strange. At this moment, she didn't know what emotions were stirring inside of her.

Doyle had always been by her side for three years since she woke up. She shouldn't be so resistant towards him anymore.

She even wondered whether or not their relationship hadn't progressed much because she rejected so many of his advances. Maybe she wouldn't feel him unfamiliar if she gave herself a chance to try. Besse's thoughts became complicated and numerous while silence continued between them for quite some time.

Finally, Doyle spoke up again, "You're not saying anything, so I'll take that as your consent."

Besse still didn't know how to respond properly though.

"We've reached the highest point."

Doyle while keeping his eyes fixed firmly upon Besse's face throughout their conversation thus far. The sun was setting behind them casting its warm golden light upon both their figures, which made everything seem softer than usual somehow. And slowly but surely he drew closer towards Besse inch by inch. Besse felt slightly nervous while clutching her clothes tight. Doyle was also nervous. He was afraid that Besse would push him away. The atmosphere was tense, and their lips finally touched each other. It felt soft to the touch, and their heartbeats were racing like crazy. Doyle was slightly trembling because of excitement, while Besse was also too nervous to move a little.

The two just looked at each other like this.

Meanwhile, Oscar was looking at them. They had reached the highest point of the Ferris wheel ride and they began to descend, while Besse and Doyle were at the highest point.

Oscar saw them clinging to each other with their lips locked in a kiss under the dazzling sunset sky.

Oscar's vision seemed a bit blurry as losing someone truly hurt, particularly when she was standing before him, she failed to recognize him.

"Daddy?" Una suddenly called out to him and asked, "What's wrong? Why are your eyes so red?"

Oscar lowered his gaze and tried hard to hide a tear that fell onto his hand.

"The sun is too bright," he said weakly while looking towards its direction where it shone gently without being harsh on one's eyesight at all. "Really?" Una looked at the sun, confused.

"Una! Don't you love making wishes? You can make one on this Ferris wheel too." Said Salem.

"Really?" Una exclaimed excitedly as she instantly shifted her focus onto something else.

Salem nodded at her with certainty. Una never doubted anything Salem told her. For her, Salem and Oscar were the two she trusted the most in the world.

Una clasped her hands together earnestly, with her eyes closed, and started wishing. Salem turned around and looked at Oscar. He saw Besse and Doyle kissing too, besides, he saw the frustration in his dad's eyes. This was the second time he saw Oscar being upset like this. Last time, when Oscar got drunk, he walked into Oscar's room, thinking that his dad was asleep lying on the bed. However, to his surprise, Oscar had kept his eyes open, staring at the ceiling in a daze. When he leaned forward and was about to call his dad, he saw tears slide down from his eyes. That was the first time he saw him cry. Before that, he thought Oscar would never cry since he thought his dad was the strongest and greatest man forever, who would never collapse, who would never be defeated, who would always protect him and Una, and the people of Northfield. And, Salem heard his dad calling a name again and again. Salem still remembered that name, which was "Hannah".

He didn't know who that name belonged to and he asked Susan later about it. As Susan heard that name, she burst into crying all at once but she didn't tell Salem whose name it was. Thus, he thought the name might be taboo, which would make his dad and godmother feel sad and cry.

Salem wondered if Oscar cried for the same person this time. He got confused since that lady wasn't named Hannah.

"I wish my mom will come to us soon!" Una made a wish.

Hearing her voice, Oscar looked down at the little girl and said, "Your mom may not replace us anymore."

"WHY?" Una was rendered so upset by what he said.

"Because..." Oscar was trying hard to hold back tears and continued, "Dad lost your mom."

"Mom is lost? Can't she come back herself? Can't she replace the way home?" asked Una.

She thought adults were smart enough to replace the way home.

Oscar smiled a little. His smile contained a sense of misery.

Fortunately, she couldn't replace the way home, otherwise, she would leave them forever.
