Chapter 1852 Selena Young

The woman’s eyes dimmed.

“Come, girl. Let’s not think about that for now. You must be hungry. I’ll cook something for you.” The woman immediately went into the kitchen.

Joan scanned her surroundings again before getting down from the bed.

She didn’t know where this was or why she was here.

But for some reason, when she was in a coma, she seemed to have heard a voice. And that voice sounded very familiar.

Could that voice belong to this old woman?

Joan shook her head, dismissing this idea as soon as it came.

No. It was a man’s voice.

“Come now, girl. Have a bowl of lentil soup.” The woman placed a bowl in front of her.

When the aroma wafted into Joan’s nostrils, she unhesitatingly picked up the spoon next to it and dug in.

The woman felt a pang in her heart when she saw the young lady wolfing down the food.

But at the same time, she admired her as well. It’s truly a miracle that she survived after falling off a bridge into a river.

Perhaps God wasn’t ready to claim her life.

This place was a small village in the mountains. It wasn’t far from the city Larry was in, but very few people from the city visited this village.

The old woman went by the name Delilah Young, but everyone in the village liked to call her Ms. Young. She used to be a noble lady, but was framed and forced to stay in this small village.

Later on, she ended up staying because she was discontented by the outside world’s troubles, and also reluctant to part with these simple and loyal villagers. She never married, but took in a child named Lucius.

“Lucius, pour this lady a glass of water. She’s injured and has difficulty moving around,” Delilah said softly, caressing the boy’s hair.

“Granny, would you like some water too? I’ll pour another glass for you.” Lucius cocked his head innocently.

The boy’s kind and sweet behavior made Delilah smile with content.

Lucius was also dealt a bad card in life. Back then, his parents abandoned him by a river in the village, and it was Delilah who took him in as her own.

“Here’s your water, ma’am.” Lucius carefully extended the glass toward Joan.

After lying in bed for so long, there were times when Joan thought she wouldn’t be able to rise again, but she refused to succumb to fate. Inexplicably, she felt some sort of power calling to her.

“Thank you, Lucius.” Joan gently pinched the boy’s cheek.

Joan was very fond of this boy. There were a few times when she wanted to accept him as her godson, but she wasn’t fully recovered yet. Not to mention, she had lost all her memories. Hence, she didn’t have the courage to bring this matter up to Delilah.

As the days flew by, Joan’s situation gradually improved.

However, her name still remained a mystery to her. Hence, she was no longer Joan Watts, but instead, took Delilah’s surname and went by Selena Young.

“How are you feeling, Selena?” Delilah looked worriedly at the woman in front of her.

“All is well, Ms. Young. Look, I’m completely fine.” Selena spun on the spot several times.

Seeing Selena recover so quickly, a joyful smile tugged at Delilah’s lips.

After recuperating at home for so long, Selena felt that it was time to look for a job. Ms. Young must’ve spent a lot of money to take care of my daily needs all this time.

“Ms. Young, I want to look for a job,” Selena blurted out, staring at Delilah with an earnest expression.

The older woman wasn’t all that surprised by Selena’s statement.

“Alright. I’ll keep an eye out for any job openings, but where do you want to work? Here or somewhere else? There’s a bustling city not far from our village which would, of course, have more job opportunities, but I suggest that you stay here for the time being. After all, you’ve only just recovered,” Delilah proposed.

She was right. That bustling city was a foreign place to her, even more so with her memories gone. Even surviving would be a problem there, so it was better to familiarize herself by working here first.

“Alright.”

The two of them came to an agreement. Soon, Selena got a job as a cashier in a supermarket.
