My Fiancé Returned... with His Wife novel Chapter 7

On the third day after I arrived, I ended up in the hospital. When I woke up, it was

evening, and a group of people, including Detective Parker and Ethan Harris, were

gathered around my bed.

I didn’t have the strength to speak. Jessica was saying a lot, her eyes filled with tears.

I saw someone comforting her with a gentle pat on the back before I closed my eyes

again.

The next time I woke up, it was early morning, and the room was dark. The first thing

I did was reach for my hair. In the darkness, someone gently pulled my hand down

and adjusted my hair. Then I felt a warm tear fall on the back of my hand, and the

person on the bed beside me let out a small sob.

“When did it happen?”

I looked at the shadowy figure and sighed. “About six months ago.”

“Why didn’t you tell anyone?”

I patted her arm. “It’s not all bad. This illness feels like a release for me.”

“I’m so sorry, truly sorry. I didn’t know you were sick. I was so guarded, thinking you

were just trying to get close to Ethan.”

I patted Grace’s hand. “You didn’t do anything wrong. My intentions weren’t exactly

pure. After all, it’s Ethan Harris we’re talking about—the man I loved for ten years,

the man I almost married. Of course I wanted to fight for him.”

The pain in my stomach flared up again. I held my breath, waiting for it to subside

before I could speak. “If it weren’t for this illness, I really would have made a scene.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to let go.”

Grace’s soft crying made my heart ache. “Are you sure you don’t want to tell him?

There’s still a chance, Sienna.”

Her sudden change of heart caught me off guard. I blinked hard, trying to keep the

tears from falling. No matter how much I didn’t want to, I knew I had to accept it.
