Chapter 15

ผู้เขียน: Anonymous
Ian couldn't believe Wendy would forget such a monumental incident. He felt even more indignant on my behalf and even more disdainful of Wendy.

"My, my. What a busy woman you are that you even forgot something as significant as what happened that night on New Year's Day six years ago. Not only did you not even thank Nathan for what he did, but you're even treating him like this now!" Ian huffed.

The more he spoke, the more indignant he became. He talked about all the sacrifices I'd silently made for Wendy throughout the last two decades, including what happened that perilous night six years ago. He even got his phone and showed her a photo of me being hospitalized after the incident back then.

Wendy wasn't sure how she managed to leave Ian's house. She was in a complete daze, feeling like her world had fallen apart. The sky had come crashing down. Everything was dark, and there was no light to be found.

According to her memories, it was Harvey who had saved her that night six years

  • Ghosts of What We Had   Chapter 26

    I told Wendy she could attend my wedding. That night, I had someone bring her the wedding invitation and a bag of candy, the pre-wedding treat we prepared for our guests.She unwrapped a piece of candy and slowly put it into her mouth. It felt like ages since she last tasted sweetness.…Many guests showed up for our wedding. Even Professor Kelley and the others at the research lab, who were also on their breaks, rushed over for the ceremony.Professor Kelley patted me on the shoulder in excitement, remarking, "You sly young man! I didn't expect you to marry my youngest protege. You sure are a lucky one."The others who'd been mentored by Professor Kelley joined in on the teasing.When I looked at Cecily, who was dressed in a white wedding gown as she stood beside me, it was as though my heart would burst from all the joy I felt. After meeting her, I finally got a taste of what unbridled love was like.The wedding ceremony began. I watched as Cecily walked down the aisle with he

    Wendy smiled weakly and replied, "It was. It must've hurt this much when you saved me too."Seeing how hard it was for Wendy to speak, I quickly told her to rest and stop talking. However, she shook her head and said slowly but steadily, "I didn't mean to follow you. I thought a lot about what you said last night, and I get it now."I was wrong for the way I treated you in the past. I'd carelessly exhausted all your feelings for me. I just wanted to tell you today that I regret everything, but I kept hesitating. I didn't know how to get the words out. I ended up seeing that guy pull a blade on you. At the time, the only thought that came to mind was that I couldn't let you get hurt."I never expected to hear these words from Wendy. If this happened a couple of years back, I would've been moved to find that she had changed at last. But alas, things were different now. I was no longer the same Nathan who loved her deeply.Right now, I felt nothing but gratitude toward her.Seeing my

    The pain I was expecting never came. I swiftly turned around, only to find that Wendy had shielded me from the assailant. She was clutching her abdomen, her face ghostly pale. Blood was still gushing from the spot her hand was pressed against.Seeing that she was about to stumble to the ground, I quickly held her steady before calling for an ambulance right away.Wendy couldn't really think straight anymore. The tremendous pain took up most of her attention. She noted how painful it was to get stabbed and figured I probably felt the same amount of pain back then.She tried her best to keep her eyes open. When she saw my anxious expression, she couldn't resist chuckling, but that only strained her abdomen, causing her even more gut-wrenching pain.All I could think of was to stop her bleeding at once, so I quickly pressed my hand against her wound. When I saw her eyelids fluttering shut, I yelled, "Hang in there, Wendy! Don't fall asleep! The ambulance is almost here! You have to st

    Wendy looked confused. She didn't understand why I asked her that.I continued, "If you love me, why have you never once prepared a gift for me on your own accord? If you love me, why have you always refused to take vacations with me? If you love me, why would you get pregnant with another man's baby and even do a wedding photoshoot with him?"I'm human, you know. My heart hurts and bleeds just like everyone else's. If this is what it means to be loved by you, then I'm sorry, but it's not for me."Every word I said made Wendy's face turn a little paler. The old memories flooded into her mind. She wanted to refute me, but after searching through all her memories, she realized everything I said was fact.These were all the things she'd done before. She couldn't argue with me.In the end, all she could do was cling to the part about Harvey and explain sheepishly, "I only treated Harvey special because I mistook him for my savior. If I'd known it was you, I would never have—""That's

    Before I could respond to Wendy's question, she became agitated and cried out, "I can explain everything! At the time, I assumed Harvey was the one who had saved my life before. I never felt anything else for him. Nothing ever happened between us."After you left… It was only after you left that I found out…"Wendy choked on her words. Tears trickled out of the corners of her eyes. It took a while before she composed herself and continued speaking."You're the one who saved me that night on New Year's Day six years ago. I'd mistaken someone else for you."Wendy looked at me with teary eyes. I saw a mix of regret, remorse, and vexation swirling in them. However, there was also a subtle hint of anticipation. She hoped that once I knew the truth, I would forgive her and start over with her.Unfortunately for her, she was wrong about that.I was indeed rather taken aback when I found out the savior Wendy referred to was the person who saved her on New Year's Day six years ago.

    Mom and Dad were also sitting in the living room with matching conflicted expressions.When I decided to cancel the wedding two years ago, I didn't tell them the real reason for my decision. I simply said I wanted to restart my career in scientific research. Thus, in their eyes, we were responsible for the wedding getting called off.Even though they didn't think Wendy loved me all that much, they still felt guilty toward her.Not once did I return to the house in the past two years, but Wendy still showed up in the neighborhood from time to time. Though she never came to the door to talk to them, they knew she was looking for me.Six months ago, Wendy began showing up almost every two days. Mom and Dad tried to convince her not to come anymore. After all, I was very adamant when I decided to cancel the wedding. Moreover, I was still at the research lab and didn't come back at all, so it was pointless for her to camp in our neighborhood waiting for me.That being said, they saw ho
