The Man Who Knew the Truth
The memory haunted Maya all night.
"Never tell anyone your real name."
The woman's voice echoed in her mind.
If Maya wasn't her real name...
Then who was she?
The next morning...
Ethan noticed the dark circles beneath her eyes.
"You didn't sleep."
She forced a smile.
"I kept thinking about my memories."
He gently cupped her face.
"You don't have to figure everything out today."
"We'll find the truth together."
She nodded.
"I know."
For a brief moment, the world outside disappeared.
Only the two of them existed.
Ethan kissed her forehead before leaving for an emergency board meeting.
"I'll be back before dinner."
"Promise?"
"I promise."
Hours later...
Maya was walking through the mansion garden when her phone vibrated.
An unknown number.
