Joseph didn't know what to say but when they were almost to the White mansion, he asked, "What are you planning to do about Anna?"
Kate turned around and looked at him, "Are you sure that you will stay away from her matters?"
Joseph frowned, staring at her eyes, "Kate, all those things were Anna's scheming."
Kate realized that he shouldn't have asked him, she smiled, "Anyway, it is none of my business. I just would like to remind you, don't drag me into your things anymore. From now on, let's just stay on our own sides, okay?"
Then Kate opened the door and leaned in to say, "Thank you for all of your help this week!"
Joseph watched her walk away, feeling miserable.
The rain was slowing down when Kate walked into the house. Daisy was just about to go pick Kate up from the cemetery because she knew Kate didn't have an umbrella. She was shocked to see Kate walked through the door, "You were picked up?"
Kate was still caught up in her emotions and didn't respond.
"Kate, are you alright?" Daisy frowned worriedly. "You have to tell me, okay?"
"It is nothing, I just feel a little tired," Kate said and shook her head.
"Well, go lay down and get some rest. I will prepare some food for you!"
So that Daisy didn't get upset, Kate chose to calm down and not say anything. However, before Kate could get into her room, Anna walked out with a toy rabbit in her arms, and fearfully asked, "Do you live next to me?"
Willing herself not to react, Kate turned to look at Anna standing in her pajamas and nodded.
"Then from now on, we are neighbors!" Anna gave her a sweet smile.
Kate looked at her, and her memory suddenly went back to the scene where she and Anna met for the first time.
"Sister Kate, this is a gift for you. We are a family now. I hope you will not hate me."
At that time, Flora had just passed away. Kate was still immersed in the grief of losing her mother. She ignored Anna's enthusiasm and hated Dora. Later, she slowly opened her heart to accept and trust Anna with all of her secrets. It was precise because of that, there became a love triangle among herself, Joseph and Anna.
No matter if Anna lost her memory or not, Kate did not want to be close to her again. Kate thought being tough to Anna was the best way to protect herself.
"What about the other girl? Does she live here, too?" Anna asked curiously.
"Sister ..." Anna, pouted and asked, "What about me?"
Kate couldn't answer the simple question.
After watching Anna, Kate thought if she was faking amnesia, then she couldn't behave so naturally. After all, her eyes would not be so innocent looking and Anna was a very impatient person.
A few days earlier, when Kate asked Joseph how it was so easy to find out the truth. He told her that there was no longer a connection between Leo and Dora, each of them had their own plan so if someone stirred up suspicion the truth would easily be exposed.
"As long as you don't cause trouble, she will not hurt you!" Kate handed the rabbit back to Anna.
"Alright, I'll be good ..." Anna hugged her rabbit tightly and smiled at Kate.
Kate went back to her room and closed the door. She thought she would feel better if those responsible were punished, but it didn't make her feel as good as she expected. She chose to sleep so that she didn't have to deal with her sadness.

Lisa had been worried about her and decided to visit after work.
"Kate, why don't we go to Emely University tonight?" Lisa asked.
Kate cheered up and asked with a smile, "Why do you want to go there?"
"Rowen is back, he is working as a graduate tutor so we can hear his lecture tonight, remember?" Lisa was afraid Kate might not be interested so she continued, "You should get out more and meet new people. I am sure Rowen will provide us with some new knowledge, especially…"
"Alright, I'll go!" Kate thought that if she said no, Lisa wouldn't give up until she said yes.
"Really?" Lisa didn't expect that Kate would agree that easily.
"But, don't talk about the old things between him and me," Kate warned her.
Lisa raised her hand and promised, "Don't worry honey! Never!"
"By the way, how are you and Joseph?" Lisa thought that since she and Joseph were spending time together, their relationship would have improved.
"What else can we be besides being strangers?" Kate said emotionless.
"Strangers?" Lisa raised her eyebrows in astonishment, "He has been helping you deal with so much the last week. I thought you would have reconciled with him."
"Reconciled?" Kate ironically smiled, "Should I forget all the suffering he caused me just because he helped me the last few days?"
