A Love Forgotten

“I want a divorce. Elijah, let’s part ways peacefully if you have any decency as a man,” I said.

I looked him in the eyes with determination. “I was young and naive back then. I made mistakes. Let’s set. each other free. Elijah”

With that, I turned and left the hospital with Frank by my side.

After that, I saw Elijah standing alone in the hallway as the elevator doors slowly closed.

I lowered my eyes and refused to look at him again. I couldn’t quite describe the feeling in my chest, but I knew I felt lighter.

I was proud and beautiful when I was 18. However, I fell in love with the wrong person and became emotionally damaged because of that

But I was still just 25 and could still start over.

I just had to be more careful with my heart this time.

When I returned to the Wood residence, Frank continued administering my IV drip and medication, and I

cooperated without protest

Then, before Frank left, he looked at me and seriously said, “Ms. York, everything will be fine.”

I was slightly surprised and asked, “Dr. Drake, do you know about me?”

Frank smiled “It’s a small circle. But don’t worry. I don’t think you’re like what everyone says you’re like

I felt a sense of warmth upon hearing his words.

After that, I dozed off for a while after Frank left before being woken up by a call from Ter

I picked up the call

Ten sounded as if she was out of breath as she said, “Ari, look at this! I can’t believe this woman is so

shameless She then sent me a screenshot

i opened up the image–it was a picture of a cozy candlelit dinner.

Fine steak, red wine, glowing candles, and a striking bouquet of roses were on the table. In the picture. there were also two hands clasped together

The hand belonging to the woman had slender and fair fingers, and there was a dazzling pink diamond ning on it too Meanwhile, a man was gently holding her fingertips. Only a blurred glimpse of his tailored suit sleeve along with a blue diamond cufflink could be seen in the frame

Immediately recognized the cuffink–it belonged to Elijah He had worn the same suit earlier when he d confronted me that afternoon and harshly accused me of forcing Jocelyn out of Halton City

The caption on the photo read. “With you I’ve found my home

Tert was getting impatient as she ated for my response “Are you done? Did you notice anything?”

I looked at the photo again carefully before saying the flowers are beautiful. That pink diamond ring is quite large it might be around the carts and must be expensive

“Do you know what that means?”

I certainly knew what it meant–diamonds had always symbolized unwavering and eternal love.

I gently said, “Teri, calm down.”

Teri was momentarily stunned by my calmness. She asked, “Ariana, are you alright? You normally would’ve stormed over to catch them red–handed by now!”

Upon hearing that, I suddenly felt tired. “Catch them? Have I ever done that?”

Teri finally spoke up after a long pause, “Yes, you have. It was quite a scene. You would embarrass Elijah every time. Meanwhile, Jocelyn, that perennial bitch, would cry her crocodile tears. People would then start to criticize you behind your back.”

“Exactly. You already know that Jocelyn is baiting me on purpose so that she can act as a victim and be all innocent. Why should I fall for her trap again?” I said.

Teri’s anger immediately subsided. She was puzzled and asked, “Ari, are you truly not angry?”

I pressed a hand to my aching chest. I couldn’t bring myself to say that I was not angry.
