Love You Like I Used To Forget It (Millie Bridge) novel Chapter 563

I couldn't stop myself from feeling pained. It hurt that we had ended up like this. Back then, Irvin had treated me half as well as he did now, our relationship wouldn't have become what it was now.

The pain Irvin had inflicted on me truly ran too deep. It was so deep that, no matter when, I just couldn't forget it. That was why I had looked forward to him waking up. But now that he had, I had no idea what to say to him or how to face him.

The nurse quickly called all of Irvin's doctors. When they saw he was actually awake and even sitting up on his own, all of them widened their eyes in disbelief and immediately exclaimed that it was a miracle.

It was just like all those years ago when I had woken up in the ICU. All of the doctors involved in my emergency treatment had exclaimed it was a miracle too.

After a round of collaborative evaluations, they unanimously agreed that Irvin's physical condition and motor functions were still pretty good. Once he took care of his body properly, he likely wouldn't have any lasting effects.

Irvin and I were left alone in the hospital room after the doctors had left. It was so quiet that it felt suffocating.

Back when Irvin was still unconscious, I used to talk to him nonstop every day. Most of the time, I would talk the whole morning. But now that he was awake, I had no idea what to say as I looked at him.

Irvin also seemed unsure of what to say to me. He just sat there and wordlessly stared at me.

Unable to stand the awkward silence anymore, I was about to ask him if he was thirsty and wanted some water.

But then, he suddenly spoke. "Even though I couldn't wake up all this time, I could still hear everything you've been telling me, Emi."

Irvin hadn't been able to move all this time. And no matter how hard he tried, he hadn't been able to open his eyes too. However, he had been able to hear everything going on around him, especially everything I had said to him.

Irvin really was an idiot. He had clearly felt it was me that night. He was certain it had been me. But when Grace claimed it had been her, he had feared that it had just been his imagination.

He had thought he had smelled my scent and felt my presence. So, when Grace had told him otherwise, he had been afraid that it had all just been a drug-fueled illusion. That was why he had believed her and thought he had slept with her.

Irvin couldn't believe it. How could he be so gullible? Especially when he thought back to the day I had asked him to meet me at the cafe.

It was likely because I had found out I was pregnant and had planned to reconcile with him for our children's sake. Yet, he had told me he and Grace were expecting and wanted to sever ties with me completely.

Irvin's disbelief at his own stupidity only intensified as he realized how much of an idiot he had been.
