    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“If you don’te back, you can forget about negotiating a divorce!” Elijah texted.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">I watched as my phone continuously chimed from his iing messages,</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">When myst shred of patience had vanished, I blocked Elijah’s WhatsApp for good. But he seemed to have noticed that I’d blocked him. So, he phoned me instead.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">At that point, I decided to block his phone number too</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Now, I had finally gotten rid of him from my world. Every muscle in my body rxed as if I had just let out a breath I was holding in.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">I should have gotten rid of Elijah a long time ago.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">I wasn’t an easy target for others to pick on, so why didn’t I fight back when Elijah had previously kept. showing off his true love to my face?</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Now, I started to regret not going berserk and trying to reim my spot two days ago.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Just then, the door suddenly swung open, and Logan entered as a light cast a glow from behind him.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">I immediately hid my phone and smiled at him, saying. I’m feeling much better, Logan.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Lame close to examine my face. Then, he nodded. “You seem better, but you should still go to Dr.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Quinell and have him examine you. On top of that, you should also get some tests done.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">had only a</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">I nodded obediently. Although I disliked check–ups, I knew that Logan me to get them. done because he genuinely cared for me</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“What did Jonathan say to you yesterday?” I cautiously asked.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Logan’s hand stiffened as he poured himself a ss of water. “He asked me to take good care of you because he’s temporarily unable to return,” he replied.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">I was a little disappointed but still understood Jonathan’s decision.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“What else can you remember?” Logan suddenly asked. There was an expectant yet doubtful look in his eyes that I couldn’tprehend.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After some thought, I answered, “I remember what happened before I was 18. I can recall what happened before the summer vacation of my freshman year, but nothing after that time in my life.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Logan stayed silent for a while before slowly raising his head and smiling softly at me. “It’s okay if you’ve forgotten. Those memories weren’t anything important anyway.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">My lips pursed into a bitter smile. “What do you mean they aren’t important? That was seven years of my youth!” It felt like God had deliberately taken away those seven years of memories, I couldn’t recall anything from that period, no matter how hard I tried.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Ever since waking up, it was like I had be a despicable side character. I was stuck with an indifferent and overbearing husband. Not to mention, his heart yearned for his true love–another woman he could never be with.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Their love story was the reason for my disastrous and loveless marriage.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Just then, Logan’s phone rang. He nced at the caller ID before casually declining the call.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Yet, the caller stubbornly called again.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">I stared at Logan in confusion, wondering why he refused to answer the call.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Once again, he tapped the decline button,</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“It’s Elijah,” he spoke in a dull tone, as though he were discussing something mundane like the weather. He sounds slightly upset, which differs from how the rumors describe him.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“I’ve always thought that someone of his caliber should be able to manage his family affairs well. s, how he’s doing it in reality seems very disappointing.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Logan’s criticism of Elijah shocked me, but a bigger question arose in my mind when I finally realized who was phoning.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">When did Elijah be this crazed and obsessed with me? He’d even resorted to calling Logan because he couldn’t reach me.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Wasn’t Elijah my greatest hater and the person who most eagerly wanted me to go away or die? If that was the case, what was he up to now?</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Why aren’t you answering it if it’s from Elijah?” I asked</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Logan retorted, “Why should I answer him?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">His response abruptly cut the conversation off.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Soon, a nurse soon entered the room to change my IV drip and bring me lunch.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After making sure that I was okay, Logan headed out.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">He seemed busy, yet he’d managed to make the time to visit me amid his packed schedule.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">I found it challenging to understand Logan as a person. He was obviously down–to–earth, yet he put up walls and distanced himself from everyone.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">I just couldn’t figure him out</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Time went by quickly.</font></font>Têxt ? N?velDrama.Org.


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">In the afternoon, Frank dropped by to check in on how I was doing before taking me to the hospital for a check–up.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">As expected, Dr. Quinell was specially waiting for me at the hospital. He performed acupuncture and some massages on my sprained waist and legs. Then, he applied some medicated cream onto my arms before telling me what I needed to pay attention to.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Everyone took great care of me, and Frank had even stayed with me throughout my check–up.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">The only thing that bothered me was that Logan hadn’t shown up even though he’d said he would apany me.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">My chest sank in disappointment, but I quickly shrugged the thought off.</font></font>
