Love You Like I Used To? Forget It! Chapter 228
Leaning back in my seat, I smiled and replied, "Nope."I had finally gotten out of one fire pit, so I definitely didn't want to jump back into another. In fact, I hadn't thought about dating at all.Noah smiled and was about to say something. But then, I quickly added, "But there's no harm in having a little fun."Just because I didn't want to get into another relationship didn't mean I couldn't fool around with handsome men. Life was hard, so I might as well enjoy what it had to offer whenever there was a chance. Besides, what woman didn't like to check out good-looking men?The car came to a stop before Noah could think of a response. As I stepped outside, I received a call from the lab.Although I hadn't officially started grad school yet, I was already logging hours in the lab by helping out wherever I could. I would only start school in the spring of next year, so I had to wait until then before I could officially participate in the lab's research.I walked as I talked on th
Love You Like I Used To? Forget It! Chapter 229
Women always had little self-control when it came to pretty clothes, bags, and jewelry.However, when money wasn't a question, that resistance instantly evaporated because they could buy whatever they wanted.Originally, Cordelia and I had gone out to shop for outfits to wear on our upcoming vacation. But in the end, we got carried away and also bought everything else—various gold and diamond jewelry, hair accessories, and even food and drinks.Our arms were bursting with bags. And although Noah insisted he didn't want anything, we also bought plenty of things for him—especially clothes.Noah was insanely good-looking and naturally blessed with model-like body proportions. He looked so good in everything he tried on that we couldn't help having it all wrapped up.Just as we were about to give in and make more purchases for him, we heard someone yelling."Emilia, you bitch! How dare you spoil your boy toy with Irvin's money!"It was Simone. She was marching toward me, but my body

Quinton sneered when he saw the large stack of documents by Irvin's hand."Look at yourself, Irvin. Not only are you allowing your hard-earned money to be spent on another man, but now you're even slaving away to support that man's family! Since when did you become such a benevolent lover!"Irvin didn't say anything as he stared at the photos. However, the pen in his right hand was about to snap from how tightly he was gripping it.He had a rebellious nature, so he had never been submissive or tolerant. However, he no longer had the choice or right to behave that way anymore. Thus, he could only endure until I regained my memories."I know you feel guilty because she had been gravely injured. I'm also aware you're trying to make things up to her because of it, but do you really have to go about it this way? Are you really going to just watch her love another man and be happy with him?"All the money you're earning now is going toward supporting her life with another man. What happ

Irvin knew doing so would only drive me further away, so he had to wait patiently until I regained my memories. Once I did and remembered my love for him, things would then return to how they should rightfully be.Besides, he believed he deserved to be punished and should suffer every time he recalled the photos of my injuries. So, in the end, his rationality overcame the beast within him."I can't lock her up—doing so would only drive her further away from me. Emi is only being so resolute because she has lost her memories. She'll remember how much she loved me when she regains them. And once that happens, she'll definitely return to my side!" Irvin declared.A lightbulb turned on in Quinton's head when he heard this. The things he hadn't understood suddenly became clear to him."So that's why she's suddenly acting so heartless toward you! It's because she's lost her memories!" Quinton exclaimed. "I was wondering how she could have such a drastic change of heart. He confidently

Cordelia obliviously threw her arms around Noah's neck while he was lost in thought."What are you daydreaming about, Noah? It's time to board the plane!" she said.She was eager to hit the beach after reading travel blogs the previous night. However, while others read travel blogs to know where the scenic spots are, the blogs she read were on where to find handsome guys. Hence, her eagerness to hit the beach was fueled by the rumor of Daiti being full of chiseled studs.The flight from Claudeville to Daiti was about ten hours long. We all slept soundly during the long flight, so we weren't tired when we landed.We changed into our beachwear upon arriving at the hotel.Cordelia was about to lead us to the beach when Noah received a call. It seemed something had happened at home, and he had to head back.She was about to say the Lowell household was fine but then realized he was referring to his birth family—the Ashfords. It had to be serious given how he needed to leave right awa

I would have immediately ran off to get help if I didn't know how to swim. And if he didn't survive because of this, I wouldn't have it on my conscience as I would know I had tried my best.I definitely wouldn't be standing here hesitating as I struggled with myself.Because I did—I knew how to swim.I had seen a psychologist after I nearly drowned in the pond last time. Thus, I was no longer afraid of the water and could swim again. That being said, I wasn't sure if I could save him. While I had regained the ability to swim, I no longer had the same confidence or stamina.A large wave dragged the man further out to sea while I struggled to make a decision. I realized then that it wouldn't matter if I wanted to save him—I wouldn't be able to if he drifted out any further.Thus, I steeled myself and jumped into the water.I had been lucky enough to be saved every time I was in a life-threatening situation. Because of this, I was eternally grateful that someone had chosen to save m

The guard immediately called for assistance using his radio and instructed them to head to the man's rescue.Seeing this, I stopped worrying about the man I had saved. I hurried back to the villa to shower and change my clothes.As I had been in the water and then stood in the cold wind, Cordelia worried I would catch a cold. Hence, she asked our in-house butler to make a large bowl of stew for me while I was showering.I was about to drink the bowl of hot stew when the head of hotel security knocked on our door. He told us they couldn't find anyone at the spot I had mentioned.The news shocked me. While the man's life was no longer in danger, I was sure he was still unconscious when I left. It was impossible for him to wake up and leave on his own in such a short amount of time.Plus, I had moved him so far up the beach that he was almost at the path leading to the hotel's garden. It was also low tide now, so he definitely wasn't pulled back out to sea. So, how could he have disa

I was so shocked that I spilled my drink.When I snapped out of my shock, I realized the figure was Irvin. He had his fist raised and was about to swing it again. Seeing this, I quickly rushed forward and grabbed his arm."What are you doing!" I sternly scolded.Irvin had looked like a raging wild beast. However, he instantly looked aggrieved when he heard me reprimand him."But he was harassing you, babe," he whined in protest.He had hurt me repeatedly, and we were already divorced. So, I didn't understand how he had the gall to still call me "babe" and behave this way.His behaviour irked me.Irvin kept claiming he loved me and was miserable. Yet, he still kept going to such lengths to help Julianne. This made me never want to see him again. And now that I had, I went from feeling like I was floating in heaven to feeling like I had descended into hell.I flung Irvin's hand away as I couldn't be bothered to deal with him.

Cordelia heard about Julianne's death after she returned from vacation. She also learned I was in denial about it.Because of this, she told me that while love and hate were completely opposite emotions, they actually weren't very different.Loving someone too much would lead one to do anything to ensure the person was happy. Then, if the person suddenly passed away, it would feel unbearable. One would feel the person shouldn't and couldn't have died just like that.On the other hand, hating someone too much would have one doing everything to make the person suffer. And if they abruptly died, one would lose the target of your vengefulness. Similarly, one would also be in disbelief over their death.Cordelia claims this was the reason I felt Julianne wasn't dead.I was at a loss for words.What she said made some sense. However, my hatred toward Julianne hadn't reached the point where it was all-consuming. I just…"Oh, come on! Stop thinking about her!" Cordelia exclaimed, interr
