Love You Like I Used To? Forget It! Chapter 293
Timothy and Irvin were clearly identical twins, so Magnus didn't understand why Agatha favored Timothy so much—to the point where she had cast Irvin aside without a second thought.Now, with Timothy gone, she still insisted on leaving everything to his unborn child. She expected Irvin to devote himself to the family without getting anything in return. Her treatment of him was more like that of a grudge-holder than a mother."I'm biased? You're the biased one!" Agatha snapped. "Tim treated you so well and listened to your every word. He also always thought of you first, no matter what! She continued, "He hasn't even been gone that long, yet you've already forgotten him. You want to give everything that belongs to him to someone else! How can you be so heartless, Magnus Hardwell!"Magnus' headache worsened.It wasn't that he was heartless. Regardless, their Timothy was gone, so Magnus had to think about the company's future once he had gotten over his grief!Besides, there was no

"Timothy is dead. He died while trying to save Irvin," William said bluntly. "According to the survivors of the cruise ship explosion, you and your mentor weren't the only outsiders onboard. The organization had also invited the real Timothy to the ship to discuss business. "However, he didn't want to get involved with the organization, so a conflict had broken out. And just when he had been about to leave, he coincidentally spotted a cornered Irvin. Seeing that Irvin was badly injured, Timothy had sacrificed himself in order to save his twin brother," he recounted.I was stunned. Hearing the truth had left me at a loss—I didn't know what to make of it."So, the reason the Hardwells insist Irvin is Timothy is to hide that something has happened to Hardwell Group's actual successor. They're doing this to prevent fluctuations in their company's stock prices. Am I right?" I asked.William gave me a look that seemed to say, "Looks like you're not completely clueless."Then, he expl
Love You Like I Used To? Forget It! Chapter 295
Irvin had once loved me with fiery intensity. However, he had also hurt me with his cold indifference.He had also nearly killed me on several occasions. That being said, he had also risked his life to save me just as many times.Before I regained my memories of him, all I could remember was the pain he had caused. Back then, the only thing I felt for him was hatred.After my memories returned, I remembered all his past affections and how he had been my salvation. But I could no longer love Irvin wholeheartedly. And yet, I couldn't go back to hating him entirely, either.I didn't know what to do.Right now, our love suddenly seemed so unimportant when Irvin was in a life-and-death situation.I should just focus on treating his legs. And once they were fully healed, we would consider things between us settled. Then, he would live an endlessly wonderful life while I spent mine exploring vast opportunities.We might not keep our marital vows of being together and living happily eve
Love You Like I Used To? Forget It! Chapter 296
When I had first met Irvin as Timothy, he had coolly told me to focus on his medical records instead of his face. It had been because he felt the urge to wheel himself up to me and hug me tightly whenever he met my gaze.At the time, Irvin hadn't yet suspected that he wasn't Timothy. He had thought he was married to Grace, and as such, couldn't accept that he had been attracted to me.He had refused to believe he was the kind of man who would lust after another woman just because of her appearance. That was why Irvin had acted so standoffish toward me back then.Looking back now, he realized it hadn't been lust at all, but rather instinctual love.Irvin's words reminded me of what I had said to him on our wedding day.I had said life was neither long nor short. And given how handsome he was, he would undoubtedly face many temptations in the future.I had told Irvin that he could just tell me if he ever stopped loving me, and we would get a divorce. However, I had also said he c

"And why not?" I asked.The Hardwells' staff had witnessed Timothy meeting his demise when he had saved Irvin—William had told me so."Judging from how shocked you were when you first saw me, you probably weren't aware I had an older twin brother. That means you also likely didn't know that he was a Hardwell," Irvin started to explain."You're my closest and most important person, so the fact that you didn't know about Timothy's existence means I definitely didn't know about him either. This also means Timothy and I had never met."Plus, humans are inherently selfish. Do you genuinely believe the real Timothy would sacrifice his life for a twin he had never met—especially when he was raised by the Hardwell family, who are known for their elitist and cold-hearted values?" he pointed out.In the time Irvin had spent in Hardwell Manor, he had gained some understanding of the family who lived there. Based on what he had learned about these people, it was impossible they would raise so
Love You Like I Used To? Forget It! Chapter 298
But I couldn't allow myself to feel this way.While Irvin had sacrificed himself to save me, he had also hurt me terribly. Was I supposed to just forget all the pain he had inflicted on me and love him like I did before?No, I didn't want to! I couldn't, and I was also afraid to!Even so, I also couldn't push him away.When I had lost my memories, I hadn't been able to fathom how I could possibly be such a lovesick fool.But now, I could only say to myself, "Those who have never loved deeply will never understand how hard it is to completely let go of the one you had once loved so dearly."This was especially so when that person hadn't been entirely cruel—when he had also loved you wholeheartedly, passionately, and without fear."Please wait for me, Emilia! Just wait until my legs are healed. Once I've dealt with the Hardwell family, we can be together openly and proudly!" Irvin pleaded.His eyes were shining as he looked at me. They were devoid of the closed-off indifference h

"Since you've figured out who I am, you also know I am the true heir of the Sawyer family. So, both of the companies you own belong to me! You better transfer their shares to me while I'm still asking nicely!" Amara demandedShe might have grown up spoilt in the Hardwell family, but the Hardwells favored sons over daughters. As such, she wouldn't receive any inheritance even if she had been born as a legitimate Hardwell, let alone as one who had been birth-swapped.When Amara learned she had been swapped with a boy named Irvin Sawyer at birth, she had immediately looked into him. And when her investigation revealed the Sawyers were a decently wealthy family, she had rushed over to me.She felt she would have been the sole heir of the Sawyer family if she hadn't been switched with Irvin when they were born. That was also why Amara believed she had a right to my companies.I couldn't help but think she was slightly deranged."Maybe you should check again, Ms. Hardwell. My companies

"Oh." William uninterestedly acknowledged.Then, he curtly told Amara he had other things to attend to and had to leave.Amara still wanted to say more but could only stomp her feet at the missed opportunity. She had finally met her dream man. Yet, she had only managed to say so few words to William before he left. She also wasn't sure if he had witnessed her unpleasant behavior.Amara was worried William might have heard how rudely she had spoken to me and that it would affect his impression of her. She felt she could have avoided this situation if I had only cooperatively signed the shares transfer agreement.And for that reason, Amara resented me even more. Her desire to squash me underfoot intensified.…I wanted to review the patient's medical records in the car on the way to meet him.Just as I was about to ask William if he had a copy, he said, "You told Irvin the truth, didn't you? You told him he's actually Irvin Sawyer and not Timothy Hardwell."My eyes widened in sho

"How could you take advantage of your position to seduce my husband! How could you knowingly become the other woman!" Grace accused.The photo she showed me on her phone was from when Irvin hugged me tightly after standing up from his wheelchair.When I first saw it, I was stunned. But then, it hit me—we had been watched this whole time!Based on the direction the photo was taken from, it could have only been taken from outside my work studio's window. And given that my studio was on the 10th floor, there was no way a random passerby snapped the photo by chance.Plus, the camera angle of the photo indicated it wasn't a coincidental shot. Someone had clearly been watching us from a floor above in the adjacent building.I also realized I had never closed the curtains in my studio. So, if someone had been watching us the entire time, they definitely knew Irvin had long since regained full use of his legs—which meant the Hardwells no longer needed my services.Thus, here came the poi
Love You Like I Used To? Forget It! Chapter 310
The young man's ability to stand again had filled his family with overwhelming joy. Coincidentally, it was also his 17th birthday, so they threw a grand birthday party and invited me to attend.I couldn't refuse. I was genuinely happy for him, so I went.Since his family was acquainted with William, they were undoubtedly influential figures in Lestoria. Therefore, the Hardwells were also invited.When I saw Grace pushing Irvin's wheelchair into the venue, attending the party as a married couple, I felt a sharp pain in my heart.I must really be a hopeless romantic.I had planned to use the time spent treating Irvin's legs to treat my withdrawal symptoms from him. I wanted my final decision to be cutting him out of my life completely.But instead of letting go—as I had hoped—the time we spent together only reminded me how good he once was to me.Even though I knew he had no choice, my heart still ached to see him with another woman.I truly…I really hated how I was. It made me

Because of Agatha's favoritism and stubbornness, Magnus had been growing increasingly impatient with her. "I think I've made myself very clear," he said, leaving no room for further discussion."Magnus, you can't do this! You can't just forget about Tim so soon! How could you treat him this way? Let me tell you—"Before she could finish, Magnus cut her off with a stern shout. "Enough! This is not up for discussion. I don't want to hear another word about it. Just leave!"Magnus' authority was absolute in the Hardwell family. Once he made a decision, Agatha had no power to change it no matter what.Though unwilling and displeased, she had no choice but to leave.As soon as Grace returned home, she was informed about the argument between Magnus and Agatha. She immediately rushed to find Agatha.The moment Agatha saw Grace, tears streamed down her face.Upon hearing that the argument had been about Irvin's hypnosis, Grace finally told her the truth, that Irvin had been faking it.

Grace had always wanted to stand at the pinnacle of power.The man beside her raised an eyebrow and suggested, "Then don't let her die. Force her into a dead-end and offer a hand, so she can be used by us."Grace chuckled but said nothing.Now that she had the picture she wanted, there was no need to continue watching. She withdrew her gaze and returned to the couch in the room.After taking a bottle of collagen, she finally looked at the man sitting across from her. "At the rate Irvin is recovering, he'll be fully healed in at most two to three weeks. Have you made all the preparations I asked for?" she asked."Of course! When have I ever failed to complete a task you gave me?" he replied confidently.Grace's lips curled into a smile. "Great."Seeing how she smiled so casually, completely without any hesitation or pain, the man couldn't help but comment. "Ms. Keller, you're ruthless indeed."Grace lowered her gaze and gently stroked her belly. She didn't respond.That night
Love You Like I Used To? Forget It! Chapter 307
Since Irvin had lost his memories, his behavior had regressed to that of his younger self.Although he had difficulty moving and had to avoid the Hardwells, he still prepared small surprises for me every time he came for treatment. Just like how he did when he was pursuing me.Just like when we were newlyweds.No matter how busy or exhausted he was, he always put in the effort to prepare something for me, whether it was a bouquet of flowers, a ticket to a movie I wanted to watch, or a dessert I loved.We were poor back then, and the things he gave me weren't worth much, but I was moved to tears every single time. After all, he was always thoughtful and affectionate. The eyes that were once cold and indifferent now burned with compassion and sincerity. Those naturally affectionate eyes gazed at me with so much love, as if I were his entire world.His one and only.That kind of love was irresistible, drawing me in.And I couldn't help but wonder, if none of it had happened, if

"I'm sorry, babe. Do you not like sunflowers? I… I saw online that…" Irvin stammered.He had searched for information about me online and discovered that I loved sunflowers, so he secretly hid one to give me. But I ended up crying instead of taking it with joy. Snapping out of it, I forced a smile and accepted the flower. "I do love it. Thank you."He stared at me, unsure if I was truly happy or just pretending."But don't call me 'babe' anymore. We're divorced." I couldn't bear to hear him say it in the same affectionate tone as before. That genuine, affectionate tone would only make me feel bad for him.And I didn't want to feel that way.Irvin, who was already anxious, panicked at my words. He grabbed my hands and said, "Babe, I couldn't find anything about what happened between us, but I know that it must have been my fault if we got divorced. "I'll make sure to be good from now on and listen to everything you say. Please, just give me another chance."Irvin had always
Love You Like I Used To? Forget It! Chapter 305
Adolescence was already a time when emotions are most unstable, making it easy to act impulsively and engage in risky behaviors. Being treated that way by my own family, I walked into the ocean, one step at a time.I wanted to die.I wanted them to regret, to suffer, to have everyone condemn them for killing their own daughter over an adopted one.I was so foolish back then, thinking I could punish them with my death. I completely forgot that they needed to actually care about me to feel remorse and pain for losing me. If they didn't care, it wouldn't matter if I died a thousand times.Using my own death to punish others is the most foolish thing in the world. I came to that realization when I was on the brink of death. I struggled, trying to make my way back to shore, desperate to survive. But then, a huge wave dragged me under, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't stand up. I didn't know how to swim back then.Just when I thought I was going to die, a tall young man do

I comforted Mr. Holland for a long time before he finally felt better and ate some oatmeal.When I got home that night, I pulled out Irvin's medical records and the reports of his treatment with various devices. I analyzed his responses to the treatment to plan the next steps. I wasn't sure how I felt about Irvin, so I chose to ignore it completely and focus solely on treating his legs.If his legs could recover and function properly again, we would be even. No matter what happened in the future, I would take it one step at a time.Things would work out eventually.By the time I finished comparing all the data and finalized the device frequency settings for Irvin's treatment the next day, it was already past 1:00 am.I collapsed onto my bed and fell asleep immediately.Ever since my injuries from falling off the cliff, I needed sleeping pills to fall asleep every night. When I lost my memory, I thought my insomnia was due to the pain. But after my memories returned, I realized

William recalled that at the time of his accident, Cordelia and I had also been vacationing on the island.Although he didn't think it was possible, he instinctively asked anyway.I had assumed that William's intimidating presence on the way here was because he was angry at me for not answering his question.I never expected him to suddenly ask such a thing.Although I didn't know why, my first instinct was to admit that I had saved someone while I was on the island.But before I could say anything, his phone rang. It seemed like an urgent call. After answering it, he hurriedly told me he would send someone else to pick me up before leaving in his car.Feeling bad for troubling him when he was so busy, I sent him a message. I told him that he didn't need to send anyone and that I would call my own driver instead.William didn't reply to my text.Instead, Noah called. "Emi, there's an emergency at home. I have to leave for a while. Wait for me, I'll be right back." he said.W
