Chapter 1409 

Did that mean Aurora had already grown used to his presence? 

“I’ve never stopped being attached to you,” she whispered, holding him tightly. “Actually… I’ve known all along that we met back in high school.” 

Lucas froze, caught off guard. 

“How did you know that? I’m sure I never told you.” 

He loosened his arms around her, his eyes widening as his heartbeat quickened. 

So, she’d known all this time? For so long, he’d been wondering how to tell her or whether he should just keep it buried forever. 

If he suddenly brought it up after all this time, wouldn’t it seem like he was bragging? 

In Aurora’s eyes, wouldn’t that make him look insincere? 

That was why he’d chosen to stay quiet, leaving it to fate. If she remembered someday, fine. If not, it didn’t 

matter. 

He never expected this moment to come–that she’d be the one to bring it up. 

The joy that surged through him felt almost ridiculous, like winning the lottery. 

“I only found out by accident,” Aurora admitted, still sounding a little dazed. 

“What do you mean?” Lucas asked, confused. 

Why would she say it like that, as if she was surprised by the discovery? 

Had someone else told her? 

Aside from that, he couldn’t think of any other possibility. 

But Aurora looked at Lucas with a solemn expression, her eyes steady and serious. “Do you believe it’s possible for someone to return to the past in a dream?” 

Lucas blinked, “What?” 

He was completely thrown off, but seeing how earnest she looked, he eventually nodded and said with equal seriousness, “If it’s you saying it, then I believe it.” 

Aurora smiled faintly. “If that’s what you think, then I’m glad.” 

She paused before explaining, “Do you remember the time when I was bedridden for a month because of Julian?” 

“How could I ever forget?” 

At the mention of that, a cold light flashed in Lucas‘ eyes. He would never forget that darkest month of his life. 

 

During that time, Aurora had been unresponsive, and he’d spent his days beside her, watching over what felt like a lifeless body. 

Seeing her like that had torn him apart–he’d wished he could trade places with her or just follow her wherever she had gone. 

Without her, the world had felt utterly meaningless. 

There was no way he could ever forget it; that month had carved itself deep into his memory. 

So, when Aurora suddenly brought it up, he couldn’t help but sense something unusual. 

“You remembered something from high school… what does that have to do with that month you were in the hospital?” 

Aurora met his eyes and answered earnestly, “Because everything I remembered about us–those memories–I saw them in my dreams. During that month, it felt like I went back to my childhood.” 

“Are you serious?” Lucas asked, genuinely curious. 

“Of course I am,” Aurora said with a soft laugh. “In that dream, it was like I lived my whole life all over again. Even I can’t explain how strange it felt.”
