Chapter 8

Author: Nine Fifteen
The clinic's security guards threw Christine out.

Unwilling to give up, she waited outside my apartment building.

One night, a rare rainstorm swept across Skurga. The rain soaked through her thin shirt. She was drenched from head to toe and burning with a high fever. Still, she refused to budge.

She foolishly believed that by making herself suffer, she could perhaps evoke a tiny bit of pity in me. After all, in the past, all it took was a slight frown from her, and my eyes would redden at the

  • Loving Her While She Scripts My Downfall   Chapter 9

    Christine watched the protective amulet that carried all of Maxwell's sincere love slowly sink into the filthy mud. Then, she looked at me walk away hand in hand with Nicole.Unable to take it, she broke down.A sharp pain tore through her stomach. She collapsed stiffly into the muddy water and vomited mouthful after mouthful of blood. As her vision gradually blurred, she reached desperately toward the direction I had gone."Max… Save me…"She believed that, as a doctor, I would instinctively turn back to save her. She believed I would at least look back at her.My steps did pause for a moment, but I didn't turn around. I turned to Nicole, who was beside me, and calmly said, "It looks like someone fainted. Call an ambulance."With that, I got into the passenger seat and closed the car door. And then, we drove away.At that moment, Christine was consumed by despair. She finally understood that I wasn't angry, nor was I trying to get revenge. I had truly and completely erased he

    The clinic's security guards threw Christine out.Unwilling to give up, she waited outside my apartment building.One night, a rare rainstorm swept across Skurga. The rain soaked through her thin shirt. She was drenched from head to toe and burning with a high fever. Still, she refused to budge.She foolishly believed that by making herself suffer, she could perhaps evoke a tiny bit of pity in me. After all, in the past, all it took was a slight frown from her, and my eyes would redden at the thought of her suffering even the slightest bit.Christine stood in the rain for the entire night.Finally, the next morning, the apartment door opened. Holding a black umbrella, I walked out with a calm expression.The moment Christine saw me, she dropped to her knees. The once untouchable heiress of Geirwain had abandoned even her last shred of dignity.With trembling hands, she pulled the tattered protective amulet from inside her coat. Then, she took out a property transfer agreement th

    After more than ten hours on the plane, Christine hadn't closed her eyes once. Her heart pounded so hard that it felt ready to burst from her chest as she imagined ten thousand different versions of our reunion.She believed that as long as she admitted her mistakes, as long as she bared her bleeding heart before me, I would go soft on her just as I always had. She imagined I would feel sorry for how much weight she had lost, gently stroke her face, forgive her, and come home with her.By the time Christine, whose eyes were red from crying, stumbled to the entrance of the private clinic in Skurga, the setting sun had bathed the street in a warm golden glow. Through the glass door, she finally saw the man she had longed for day and night over the past two years.I was organizing some patient files.I wasn't dead. I was truly, unmistakably alive.Tears instantly streamed down Christine's face. Just as she was about to push the door open, she suddenly froze.A Ciernan female doctor

    Two years passed.During those two years, one story became the talk of the city.The once high-and-mighty heiress of the Stafford family, who was known to be a ruthless businesswoman, seemed to have lost her mind.Christine refused to hold a funeral for me and refused to acknowledge my death. She even obsessively bought up every news report about the border attack and had them all destroyed. She resigned as the CEO of Stafford Group and shut herself inside the guest room where I'd once lived.The room remained exactly as I had left it. Even the half-used bottle of lotion I hadn't taken with me had become the most priceless treasure in her eyes.Every night, Christine curled up on the bed where I'd slept. She clutched the mended protective amulet tightly in her hand and buried her face in the old clothes I'd left behind. She greedily breathed in my scent that had long since faded.The moment she closed her eyes, it felt as though her heart was being crushed. The pain was so unbear

    The sound of explosions coming through the phone seemed to send shockwaves through Christine's mind as well.Her phone slipped from her hand and dropped to the floor. Spiderweb cracks spread across the screen."Maxwell… Max!" she cried.Her legs gave out, and she collapsed to her knees. A surge of blood rose in her throat, and she coughed up a mouthful of it.Scrambling to her feet, she roared at Ethel to mobilize her private jet and an overseas mercenary rescue team.She refused to believe it. She refused to believe that the man who had loved her with all his heart was dead.13 hours later, Christine stood amid the ruins of the border conflict zone.The air was thick with smoke, and devastation stretched as far as the eye could see. The destroyed medical vehicle had been reduced to a charred mass of twisted metal. Severed limbs and burned medical equipment were scattered everywhere."Ms. Stafford, it's too dangerous here. There could be another attack at any moment. The rescue

    The next morning, Christine walked out of the master bedroom and found the guest room door wide open. The room was empty.She frowned and walked over to the table, where she immediately spotted the engagement termination agreement.Standing nearby with red, tearful eyes, Lucian pretended to blame himself. "Christie, is Maxwell mad at me? Maybe I should go find him and bring him back…"Christine let out a cold snort. "Don't bother. He's just playing hard to get. He's so in love with me that he can't live without me. He'll be back begging me in three days."She was convinced I was just throwing a tantrum.However, an entire week passed without a single word from me. There weren't any phone calls or text messages. Even the hospital said I had already resigned.The confidence Christine had at first gradually turned into frustration.One day, as she walked down the hallway, she glanced at the trash can that still hadn't been emptied.A dirty engagement ring lay inside. It was the ri
