Lara's memories did not come back all at once. It started from the beginning, about her family, how she grew up, how she met Mike.
In a flash, she remembered the betrayal and how her ex husband had thrown her out of the house, despite knowing that she had nowhere else to go.
Lara remembered the pain, the cruelty. She remembered how destitute she was. How her grandmother, who had been her left chance, had died.
Lara recalled how she lost everything because of Mike and Tolu.
Her heart started to pound in her chest.
Everything Curtis told her about what her ex husband and ex best friend did was the truth. They had lied to her, made her homeless and destitute. Hell, they had almost ruined her life.
Lara gasped as memories after memories streamed into her blood, her bones. It sank into her bones.
Curtis was instantly worried about the look on her face. "What's the problem, love? Is anything the issue?" he asked.
