Falling for my Billionaire Ex Again!
I stepped inside the office and sat before the doctor. But my thoughts suddenly drifted.
"Mr. Blackwood?" The doctorâs voice pulled me back to the present.
"How is she?"
The doctor sighed, flipping through Natalieâs chart before meeting my gaze. "She suffered a severe head trauma. We managed to stabilize her, butâŠ" He hesitated.
My stomach twisted. "But what?"
"She has retrograde amnesia. Right now, her memory is⊠fragmented. From what weâve assessed, she doesnât recall the last five years."
Ethan froze. "How do you mean, five years?"
"She believes itâs still 2018. In her mind, sheâs still your wife."
The words punched the air from my lungs. Still my wife.
"This kind of memory loss can be temporary or permanentâwe canât say for sure. She may recover bits of it over time, or it may come back all at once." The doctorâs gaze softened. "Itâs important, Mr. Blackwood, that no one tries to force her to remember anything. Pushing her could make things worse, even more dangerous."
I swallowed hard, my pulse roaring in my ears. Five years of pain, five years of regretsâwiped away.
"Can I see her?"I pleaded.
The doctor hesitated before nodding. "Go easy on her....And Mr. Blackwood?"
"Stay strong."
