Chapter 693 Angelica’s Decision

[Have you decided? The clock is ticking.]
"Even if you say you are only giving me a minute to think about it."
'I have always wanted to know about my past, and now that I am given an opportunity, I am having second thoughts! But if I let this chance pass, I will never know anything about myself, and I am going to regret making a wrong decision here.'
After a pause of two seconds, Angelica quietly said, "Yes. Give me my memories back."
[Thank you. I am going to die next year and become a ghost who will be trapped in that tunnel for eight years. That's going to be tough, but I would have long forgotten who I was. And then… I will become you.
Had you said no to my offer right now, You and I, we both would have lived with no memories about ourselves. You are not only regaining your memories, but you are saving me from dying too. You are saving us. We will be born again.]
Angelica smiled bitterly at Jessica and said, "Good luck with life. It's going to be tough."
[I will endure it. After all, the reward is well worth the suffering.]
[Angelica, place your hand on the screen. I will transfer Jessica's memories into you,] the kid Rudy said.
Angelica placed her finger on the screen and closed her eyes without asking.
The kid Rudy turned to Jesicca and asked, [Are you ready?]
[Yes.]
He placed his hand on Jessica's head and pointed his other hand at the camera.
[I am starting now.]
The spot where Angelica's finger was touching the screen glowed as her body also became a little bit translucent. The light traveled through Angelica's body and went to her head, slowly turning her hair white, just like Jessica's.
Jessica passed out on Rudy's shoulder while Rudy struggled to speak.
[Remember, you can't—]
Before Rudy could finish speaking, the connection was cut off, and the video file was automatically deleted without a trace, as though it had never existed in the first place.
Angelica's hair remained white, but her body had stopped glowing. She slowly opened her eyes and looked at the phone's screen, only to realize the phone's screen had turned off.
"It… worked…?" she muttered.
She let go of the phone and held her head with her hands.
"Argh. I feel like someone is pulling my brain nerves!" She grunted in pain.
A few seconds later, Angelica looked at her hands and touched herself.
"I… I have my memories back! I am slowly remembering everything!" She covered her mouth and laughed in excitement. "I know about my past. I remember Rudy came to visit us in 1989 and stayed with us for a year.
I know he was Miss Elena's lover. Looking back at it from an adult perspective… They both were having sex whenever they were alone. They have had more sex in the house than I did after I became Angelica.
But… who is Miss Elena? I haven't seen or known anyone by that name. Rudy never mentioned her, either. Sis must know who she is. But… Miss Elena… she…. oh! Could it be that she is Eleanor?!
Wait… does that mean Eric and Erika are… Rudy's children? I don't remember anything about the early years yet. But I am slowly remembering. I need a nice long sleep to rest my mind, but…"
Angelica picked up the phone and got up from the bed.
"There is something I must do first."
She left the pool house and flew away, disappearing behind the clouds.
A few minutes later, she landed in front of the convenience store Rebecca worked at. She watched Rebecca from a distance and smiled slightly.
'Even though I saw her at the house this evening… I feel like it's been years. I am sure Rudy felt the same when he returned to this timeline after living in the past.'
She took a deep breath and let out a big sigh.
"I feel so nervous right now. I am genuinely curious about what she thought of me when she caught Rudy and me having sex in the bathroom earlier. Maybe that's the reason she was that furious?
Come to think of it, when we met for the first time and talked… I felt an instant connection with her, and I thought we could get along fine. Rudy knew I was Jessica after he returned from time traveling, and that is why he introduced me to sis so we could share a moment.
She knew I was Jessica and I… talked with her about Rudy and the harem. I even told her my exciting sex stories. Argh! Just kill me now! That's so embarrassing! I can't show my face to her!
Maybe I should keep pretending I haven't got my memories back! That would make it easy to interact with her. But… wouldn't she be happy when she learns that I have regained my memories?"
Angelica gathered her courage and made her way inside the store. However, the sensor didn't activate, and the glass door stayed closed.
"Stupid door."
Angelica passed through the door and stood in front of Rebecca, who was the cashier. She was busy counting the money and thought a customer had walked in.
"..." Angelica waited for a few seconds for Rebecca to look at her, but that didn't happen, so she made her presence known by tapping on the glass counter.
Rebecca shot a quick glance at Angelica and focused on counting money again. A second later, she looked at Angelica again and stared at her for a few seconds.
"Angelica…?"
'Of course, she would think I am Angelica… and I actually am.'
Angelica bit her lower lip and nodded, "...yes."
"I almost didn't recognize. What's with your hair? Why are they white? Are you trying to have a new look?"
"Huh?" Angelica looked at her reflection in the glass and realized what Rebecca was talking about.
'I didn't notice my hair color had turned white. But that's not important right now. I have to find a way to tell sis that I have regained my memories.'
She gulped down nervously.
