Chapter 212
Before Jim could finish his sentence, Jonathan interrupted him. “It’s my fault.”
I glanced at Jonathan and said, “He also warned me in this way when I first regained consciousness. All the friends you have around me warned me like this, telling me not to be ungrateful and push my luck.”
I paused, and my tone became gentler as I asked, “Do you still not think we should get divorced, Jonathan?”
After being discharged from the hospital that day, I didn’t see Jonathan again for a long time.
I’d already made my opinion very clear to him, so he should also slowly think things through and let our relationship go.
I figured that I might just be receiving a divorce agreement from him very soon.
My life gradually calmed down, and my career was getting back on track, but there was one thing giving me a headache.
After recovering my memories, Frederick started looking me up frequently.
“So, you really did lose your memories! I was still a bit skeptical before. Who knew it’d actually be true!” he exclaimed with his usual mischievous smile. “Will you consider me after you get divorced?”
“I still haven’t gotten divorced yet,” I said, correcting him. “I don’t even have a divorce certificate yet. You’re currently a third party making advances on someone in an established relationship, so I advise you to watch yourself.”
I said that to him not because I couldn’t bear to divorce Jonathan, but because I didn’t want to get myself into another relationship so soon after ending one.
Besides, although Frederick had never been a third party in a relationship, it was a fact that he’d interfered in the relationship between me and Jonathan before we properly settled things
between ourselves.
I was very grateful that he saved my life back then, but that was all.
“I’m grateful to you, but I don’t have any feelings for you beyond that,” I stated clearly.
“You didn’t have to put it so harshly, did you?” Frederick asked, looking sad for a moment before quickly becoming a little relieved. “I was just trying my luck anyway. I gave up on you a long time ago, Elise. I just got a little angry when I saw that you weren’t living a good life.”
“I understand.”
