Semua Bab The Wedding That Will Never Be: Bab 11 - Bab 17

Dante crashed into an armchair, his eyes clouded red. He was grasping a report he had just received. He said, "Isobel, you're not the one who saved me five years ago."Isobel stiffened, but she kept a gentle smile on her face as she tried to take his arm and say, "Why are you saying this all of a sudden, Dante? Are you tired—"She hadn't finished speaking before Dante flung her off him and snarled, "Drop the act! I reviewed the surveillance footage from the alley at the time. It was Nina who saved me. She was the one who stayed with me when I was on the verge of death!"All the color drained from Isobel's face.At the time, she'd come across Dante at the hospital by sheer coincidence. He'd just woken up and immediately assumed she saved him. She should've clarified things right away. However, in a moment of weakness, she gave in to her selfish desires and played along with his assumptions.Later, her family sent her abroad, which resulted in them losing touch.

He was clutching his abdomen with one hand, but it was bleeding profusely anyway.Swaying, he ended up crashing on top of me."Dante!"I quickly tried to keep him steady as I called for an ambulance. The only thing I could think of was to stop his bleeding at once."Have you lost your mind?" I cried out as I pressed down against his wound.My fingers were covered in his blood.Dante was already losing consciousness. His face was colorless, but he struggled to keep his eyes open and look at me. With a faint smile on his face, he said, "Now I know… how much it hurts… Was this the pain you felt back then?"My heart clenched, and my nose prickled.Dante only fainted when he heard the siren of the ambulance just moments before it pulled up beside us.…The surgery lasted three hours.
