I Can Wait, but I Won't Anymore Chapter 13
Sheila's POVSometimes, Zack would just sit by the window reading, waiting for me to finish my shift so we could have dinner together. He never rushed me.If I needed ten minutes, he would really wait for ten minutes. If I told him I was tired, he would just tell me to rest well and that he'd drop by again the next day.I gradually began to understand something. Someone who truly loved you wouldn't wear you down with disappointment. They would remind you that your time was precious, your feelings were important, and your family deserved respect.One evening, just as I was closing my flower shop, Henry showed up. He stood outside the door. He had become so thin that I almost couldn't recognize him. He was wearing a very old coat, and his eyes were bloodshot.Even when I saw him through the glass, I still remained calm.Zack asked, "Want me to deal with him?"I shook my head. "I'll do it myself."I walked to the door. When Henry saw me, his eyes instantly turned red. "Sheila, I

Sheila's POVThe evidence included records of Henry applying medicine to Mina, accompanying her to checkups, and leaving his post without permission. There was also the screenshot of the eight calls I had made to him that night in the emergency room.The incident caused an uproar. The hospital suspended him from his position. Later, he had his professional license revoked for serious violations of medical ethics.My friend had mentioned that when Henry got the news, he sat outside the hospital all night, clutching the list I had left him.He even asked other people these questions. "Was she very scared that day? Did she cry when she signed those papers alone?"No one ever answered his questions. After all, the answers no longer mattered. His regret and concern came too little, too late.Mina wasn't much better off. After the incident with Henry, she immediately dumped him because he was useless. Instead, she hooked up with a man who had luxury cars. She thought she had finally

Sheila's POVWhen Zack saw Henry blocking my way, he quickly walked over. He asked, "Sheila, are you okay?"I looked into Henry's eyes, which were filled with suspicion and possessiveness. Then, I made a sudden decision. I took Zack's hand. He visibly stiffened, but he didn't pull away.I looked straight at Henry and said calmly, "Let me introduce you. This is my boyfriend, Zack Lowe."Blood immediately drained from Henry's face. He muttered, "You're lying. Sheila, I can't believe you'd even tell such a lie to spite me."I didn't bother to explain myself and just tightened my grip on Zack's hand. "It doesn't matter what you think. My point is that you shouldn't bother me anymore."Henry's eyes were red at the corners. He asked, "How is he better than me?"I looked at him pointedly. "In every way. At least he won't let my mom wait when she has a medical checkup. He replies when I text him, and he treats me with respect."Henry felt his heart bleed at my words.Just then, a sh

Sheila's POV"I won't give you another chance," I declared.Henry wanted to approach me again, but Zack immediately called security.When Henry was stopped, he stared at me unwaveringly. "Sheila, I won't give up."I turned Mom's wheelchair around and said softly yet firmly, "Suit yourself. I won't wait for you anyway."…Henry hadn't given up. In the past few days, he had come to the hospital every day. He brought flowers, fruit, supplements, and even a wedding ring.The nurse brought the things to the door of the ward and asked me if I wanted to keep them.Yet, I said, "Please return those."Henry's face turned ashen when he heard my words from where he was standing at the end of the corridor. He had even sent me many text messages."Sheila, I have looked at the list you left and realized how much I've wronged you.""I've rewritten and memorized every single offense of mine.""I won't make you wait anymore.""Let's get married, okay?"I simply texted. "Too late for that.

Sheila's POVIn the days that followed, Zack often helped me. When Mom needed to go for a checkup, he helped wheel her there, and he even kept an eye on her IV drip while I was running late from buying food.He never crossed the line or tried to curry favor with us. He simply said, "It's no big deal."Mom really liked him. She whispered to me, "Zack seems honest and kind."I chuckled at her words. "Mom, you've only known him for a few days."Mom huffed at that. "I'm a good judge of character."I didn't think much of what she said.That afternoon, Zack was taking Mom to her follow-up appointment. Just as we reached the department, we noticed Henry.He had lost a lot of weight. There were also dark circles under his eyes, and he hadn't shaved properly. The shirt he was wearing was wrinkled. He looked nothing like the neat, well-put-together doctor I once knew.When he saw me, his eyes turned red. "Sheila."I stopped in my tracks. I felt nothing at all, as if I was just seeing s

Third-Person POVHenry suddenly turned to look at Mina and asked, "Do you know why I didn't pick up Isla that day?"A flicker of uncertainty appeared in Mina's eyes. She answered, "Wasn't it because my dog went missing?""Did your dog really go missing?" he retorted.She bit her lip nervously, then replied, "Of cour—"He opened his phone and clicked on Mina's post on X from that day. At 10:00 am, she had posted a selfie. The caption read, "Gummy has been so clingy today. He's just lying nearby and refuses to leave."In the photo, the supposedly missing dog was lying on the carpet.Henry froze at what he read. He finally realized he had been deceived. However, he realized something even more ridiculous. Even if Mina had lied to him, he had still chosen her over Sheila.He didn't go to the train station.He hung up on Sheila. He even said Isla could wait.He looked down, his voice hoarse as he uttered, "Mina, you lied to me."Mina panicked at his words. "I-I just wanted you
