Chapter 200 - Smitten

Ethan left the following morning while Moriah was fast asleep. Moriah was saddened that he left while she was asleep. Days went by, then it turned to weeks. Ethan was away for almost two months now. He rarely made a call. Moriah was busy perusing a patient's medical file when Cindy barged into her office. "Do you have any idea who your patient was?" Cindy asked her once she entered Moriah's office, not bothering to say an overture. "Who are you referring to? I got so many patients," Moriah replied with her eyebrows knitted together. "This," Cindy showed her phone to her. "The famous football player Harry Williams." Moriah looked at the photo and recognized him. "So what's the problem about it? Having a famous patient?" Moriah wasn't fond of sports, hence she doesn't know that Harry is a famous football player. She deduced that Harry was injured while he's playing football. "He posted on his social media account. Cindy searched the post and showed it to Moriah. In the post was

Chapter 201 - Bouquet of Red Roses

"Dr Miller, do you need anything?" Moriah's secretary said. "Please, give me Harry Williams' phone number," Moriah said. "Okay," the secretary left and was back after two good minutes. Moriah dialled the number. Her call was answered after a few rings. She heard laughter coming from the other end of the line. "Hello, who's this?" Moriah heard a magnetic voice. "It's Dr Miller," Moriah replied. In an instant the laughter stopped and silence prevailed as if they stop breathing all together. "Hi, Moriah, is something the matter?" Harry asked. The way her name rolled in his tongue sounded intimate. Moriah frowned. "Are you available tonight? Can I meet you to discuss something with you? It's very important." She couldn't tell him on the phone so she chose to talk to him in person. "Yes, I am, actually I'm with my friends now. You can come over, I'll send you the address," Harry said, his heart bursting with joy. "No, I can't, I'm on my shift until 6 in the evening," Moriah said

Chapter 202 - Genuine Praise or Flattery

The next morning, when Moriah showed up in the hospital. The reporters who had been waiting for her swarmed around her the moment she disembarked from the car. They blocked her path and fired questions at her. Her chauffeur couldn’t do anything as the reporters were adamant to get something they could write. "Dr Miller, are you and Mr Miller divorced?" Moriah was shocked at the question and froze. "No, we aren't," she answered while shaking her head after she recollected herself. "Are you and Harry Williams in a relationship?" Another reporter asked, making her grit her teeth in anger. "No, we aren't," Moriah replied and tried to walk away but she was blocked. "Why did you have dinner with him?" A lady reporter asked with an obvious malice that laced her tone. Moriah didn't answer her. "Please, excuse me. I have to attend to my patients and stop blocking my way," Moriah said with a stern voice, her jaw was set, exuding an imposing aura gone was her sweet demeanor. The reporters

Chapter 203 - Ugly Truth

"If you think that you'll trip and fall while we dance, it won't happen as I'll take care of you," Harry said, wearing a lazy smile. Other ladies who see him smile like this would be euphoric but Moriah never reacted like that instead she narrowed her eyes in displeasure. "Mr Williams, are you not ashamed of pursuing a married woman? I'm sure that you knew, I'm married to Ethan Miller. I love my husband and will never be parted with him," Moriah sounded furious and her beautiful face red with rage. Harry looked tenderly at Moriah and shook his head. "You might not want to let go of your husband. But a marriage will only work if both of them want the marriage. It seemed that Mr Miller no longer wanted the marriage." "What nonsense are you talking about? My husband never gave up on us," Moriah scolded him, her face was like a feral cat. "Aren't you surprised why am I here? I have no connection or whatsoever with the organizer of this charity ball. This ball was organized by your husb

Chapter 204 - Give Her Away

Stunned, Moriah froze and tried to process what she heard. After a while she laughed while tears streamed down her eyes. "I see, you are giving me away because you're fed up." Ethan was rendered speechless. He took her in his arms. "Let go of me, Ethan. Just tell me if you're already bored and tired of me. I will give you back your freedom. But please don't push me into another man's arms. I'm not a cheap woman," she extricated herself from his hold. "We can file a divorce once I'm out of the hospital," Moriah felt her heart was bleeding as she mentioned the divorce. However, she can't keep him if he is no longer happy with her."Even if I didn't regain my lost memory. I still found myself in love with you and that'll remain until the end of my life. I will never love another man, even if you choose to love another woman. And since I love you and I won’t hold you back. I will set you free." Ethan thrust his hands on his trouser pocket and balled them into a fist. Moriah lies down

Chapter 205 - Lost His Temper

Moriah's question was like a thunderbolt and struck a nerve. "I don't want to talk about memory loss," Ethan said with a hard and harsh tone, his voice was a little loud. "Ethan?" Moriah called his name in shock and couldn't hide her anguish, it's written on her face and it laced her voice. Her eyes were red rimmed.  What's with his sudden outburst? Is he angry because she forgot their three year marriage? Moriah tried to find an answer to justify his behavior. Ethan suddenly regained his composure when he heard Moriah's tone. He hugged her tight."I'm sorry, love," his countenance and voice turned considerably gentle and remorseful at the same time.

Chapter 206 - Can We Talk?

 Moriah was excited to clock out as there will be a simple celebration in the mansion for the triplets who are now three months old. When her shift ended, she hurriedly went out of her office. She was surprised to see Ethan outside waiting for her. "Love, you're here to pick me up?" Moriah was high in spirit that Ethan came to pick her up. He had been so busy and had no time for her over the month. Thankfully, she was occupied taking care of Dillon and the triplets, so she had no time to have a pity party, though she was hurting. Ethan didn't say anything and just started walking. Moriah just shrugged her shoulders, she became used to his mood swings. There were times that he would be warm to her and then shift back to becoming distan

Chapter 207 - Keep Her In The Dark

Slowly she opened it. Her hands shook violently as she read the content. Tears kept streaming down her cheeks like a river. Her chest rose and fell, as she tried to contain the waves of emotions inside her chest. "I don't need your money, all I want are the kids," she was surprised that she managed to speak calmly, she couldn't believe that it was her who spoke. Ethan was about to speak but she raised her hand, beckoning him to be silent. "I can take care of the children. I'm a surgeon, with my income, I can give them a decent life. I have a dowry that is worth millions of pounds. My cousin called me two days ago saying that they were going to give me my inheritance and my parents left me a large amount of money. Plus, I have mum, dad and Dylan. We don't need your money," Moriah was breathless after she spoke without pause. She panted as tears kept flowing. Moriah already regained her memory however she didn't tell him as he was so busy and had no time for her. Ethan's face darkene

Chapter 208 - A Stubborn Woman

"Let me take you to the couch," Ethan broke the silence after a long while. "No, I can do it," she's a doctor and had an idea what was going on with his body. Moriah sat next to him. She placed her feet on the couch and hugged her knees. She waited for him to speak."I have a blood clot in the brain," Ethan said, his voice trembling. Moriah was still stupefied despite having an impression that his physical condition wasn't good. "Why are you divorcing me then?" Moriah broke down and sobbed. "I refused to have a surgery because of the risk of losing my memory. I would rather die remembering you than to live forgetting you. To forget you is worse than death," Ethan replied, tears escaping his rims. The reason he allowed Harry to pursue Moriah was so she would fall in love with him and it wouldn't be hard for her when he dies. Although it was difficult to let her go, he can't be selfish and leave her without someone who would love and take care of her. And Harry was the right man w

Chapter 209 - A Proposal?

The following morning after they arrived at the countryside estate where they got married, they went for a walk in the woods."Baby, let's go back," Moriah said when they were half a mile away from the house. "Let's take a picture first," Ethan pulled up his iPhone to capture their moment."Look at me, love," Ethan whispered in her ear. Ethan titled his head and captured her lips when she turned her head towards him. Moriah had not refused him, but kissed him back while she wrapped her arms around his waist. Ethan held the back of her head and kissed her deeply. While his other hand lifted his phone, recording their moment. Everyday they would walk leisurely around the estate to relax. The estate had so much beautiful scenery that Ethan had not explored yet as he had been working hard for the years and rarely had time to relax. Dr. Houston, instructed Moriah to convince Ethan to have a vacation and time to relax before the surgery. It was imperative that Ethan have a sound mind
