[The oddity of that surprises him too much to consider the reason, initially. Does he know this woman? No, surely he wouldn't forget anyone he's met, especially who knows his name, one simply doesn't allow oneself to forget, that's the sort of society he's used to, after all. And yet it seems that he must have forgotten - and how terrible that is.
But no sooner have those questions crossed his mind as he (accidentally) gives her a puzzled look, than he realises the clear answer. Of course it's because of Hyde, she's thinking of his other self, while Jekyll's no memory of her. He isn't sure if it's better or worse that she seems to like him well enough.
His face falls, and Jekyll searches for some explanation to give.]
