Semua Bab Love You Like I Used To? Forget It!: Bab 141 - Bab 150

After leaving the surgical ward, I had to walk past the general ward on my way out.An idea suddenly came to mind just as I did. So, instead of leaving the hospital, I headed to Julianne's room.Irvin had been injured. Because of this, he had been preoccupied with getting examined and treated. He was also worried that I would think there was something going on between him and Julianne.Despite all this, he had still thoughtfully arranged for Julianne to stay in a luxurious VIP room.None of my family members had come to visit me when I woke up after falling off the cliff. When I was discharged from the ICU ward, I had been placed in a noisy eight-person room.Comparatively, her single occupancy VIP room was so much more comfortable. So much so that it didn't even feel like one was staying in a hospital.I knocked on her door.Julianne thought Irvin had come to check on her. She happily opened the door and was about to call his name coquettishly.Her smile instantly vanished whe

Irvin called me before I even made it home."Is this really necessary, Emi?" he asked.He might not have been direct, but I knew what he was referring to. Julianne had surely run as fast as she could and complained to him about what I had said.He was calling me because he wanted to back up his dearest "sister" and stepmother.I huffed disdainfully. "Why wouldn't it be?"Irvin sighed wearily. "Regardless, Emi, she—""Don't tell me that she's still my sister. You may consider her as such, but I don't!"I absolutely hated hearing people tell me Julianne was my sister, no matter what. It was as though I couldn't hold her accountable for anything she did just because of that."You know the drugging incident fiasco happened because of a misunderstanding, Emi. Can't you please let it go?""No, I don't believe that. In fact, I think it was all a scheme to set me up! I'm going to keep digging into it, and you can't stop me! If you can accept this, great. But if you can't, feel free to

Irvin would usually catch Julianne and embrace her fully.It looked as though he was going to catch her as usual, but then he seemed to reconsider it. Instead, he quickly side-stepped her and simply reached out, grabbing her arm to steady her.Julianne was already in a bad mood. When she saw how unwilling Irvin was to embrace her, her expression became thunderous.I couldn't help smirking at the sight of Irvin avoiding her.See, as a married man, he knew he shouldn't behave intimately with any woman other than his wife. He knew that doing so was wrong.Yet in the past, he would casually hug Julianne and even allow her to cling to his arm. They would behave so intimately with each other.When I had called him out on it, he had the nerve to say I was reading too much into it because I had already made up my mind about their relationship.After reading the contents of my journal, I was glad I had lost all memory of him. If I hadn't, I would still be living in a constant state of se

Irvin managed to save her right at the critical moment. He had used his body and blocked her from hitting the wall. In that instant, he looked immensely relieved. He was probably thanking all the gods in existence for helping him to save her.I believed Irvin when he claimed he didn't love Julianne romantically. I also believed that he truly thought he didn't and that I was the one he loved. Otherwise, he wouldn't have transferred his entire fortune to me.That being said, I also felt he wasn't fully aware of his own feelings. He hadn't yet realized that the person he truly loved was Julianne. Otherwise, he wouldn't have behaved the way he just did.Irvin was about to exhale in relief when he saw that Julianne was fine. But then, he met my contemptuous gaze.His heart seemed to shrivel, and his immediate reaction was to push Julianne away. However, Julianne closed her eyes and fainted in his arms.I thought he was going to pick her up in a panic and rush her to the hospital. It

Irvin had just tucked in a sleeping Julianne. He was preparing to leave when I arrived.He came face to face with me when he turned around. Different emotions flashed so quickly across his face that I couldn't describe them. I smiled patronizingly at him. "Let's talk elsewhere. We shouldn't disturb your beloved Julianne's sleep."With that, I turned and walked away.Irvin's expression was so ugly when he heard what I said. But I didn't care.He wanted me to stop bringing up his relationship with Julianne. But at the same time, he was also afraid I would. This was because if I no longer cared about their relationship, it also meant I no longer cared about him.Irvin looked at me once we were outside. He then took the lead and spoke first."I really had urgent work matters to attend to. That's why I didn't wait outside Mr. Holland's house for you," he began explaining. "I only came to see Lianne once I had handled it."Then, he tried to justify his actions. "And the reason I cam
