Dexter's POV:
The moment I stepped out of the hall after the banquet, I felt all the cells in my body come back to life.
I was finally freed.
Caroline's enthusiasm really made me feel at a loss.
I still needed some time to adapt to the abrupt change in our relationship.
One minute, we were siblings, and the next, we were a couple.
I was told that I had lost my memories, even forgetting something as crucial as dating my sister.
I was even asked to marry Caroline.
All this was simply too outrageous! I planned to go to see my mother.
I wanted to ask her what on earth had happened.
She was the only one who could help me.
But as soon as I stepped foot outside the banquet hall, Caroline stopped me.
"Dexter, wait for me!"
She caught up with me and slipped her hand into mine.
She looked up at me with a sweet smile, but I couldn't help but shrug off her hand.
