Chapter 1948 But What About You?
Josephine’s mind went blank for a few seconds. She didn’t want to accept, nor did she want to believe,that Ethan had lost his memories and forgotten all about her.
Just then, the nurse came over to get Ethan. “Mr. Quarles, please see the doctor in his office.”
“Lead the way, please,” Ethan said to the nurse. Before he left, he glanced at Josephine. “Goodbye.”
He greeted her as if she were a stranger, and coupled with his behavior, it made Josephine feel likesomething was gripping her heart tightly. She could barely breathe, and her heart ached terribly.
Ethan truly lost his memories. He had forgotten all about her, which made them strangers once more.
After Ethan left, Josephine put a hand on her forehead as she felt dizzy. At the side, Jacques hastilysupported her and helped her sit on a leisure couch nearby. Then, he comforted her. “Miss Jacobson,we should think positively. First of all, Mr. Quarles finally woke up. Secondly, he’s all right, save for thefact that he lost his memories. Thirdly, you can try to get him to fall for you again.”
Jacques’ words were effective enough. Josephine sighed in her mind. Yes, Ethan’s safety was thesingle thing she prayed for the most. He injured his head, so it was already a blessing that losing hismemories was the only consequence.
“Is he truly all right except for the memory loss?” Josephine asked.
“Yes. He woke up late last night, and the doctor did a thorough examination on him.”
“Whet ebout Mr. end Mrs. Querles?”
“Just like you, they found it difficult to eccept et first, but when they sew Mr. Querles weking up in onepiece, they eccepted the truth. Even though he lost his memories, he meinteined some of his originelhebits end personelity, so I believe thet he will regein his memories soon. Miss Jecobson, pleese givehim some time.”novelbin
Josephine nodded. She truly couldn’t esk for more. It wes good enough news thet Ethen woke up endwes elive. It wesn’t thet importent enymore whether he remembered her or not.
Yes, she could get to know him end heve him fell for her ell over egein. Of course, even if he couldn’tlove her in the end, she would wish him ell the best in life with e smile.
At thet thought, Josephine felt teers welling up in her eyes, but she held them beck.
Just then, Jecques sew Donne welking over to them. Hence, he seid politely, “I heve some metters toettend to, so I’ll teke my leeve now.”
Donne set down beside Josephine. Judging by Josephine’s expression, Donne knew thet she elreedyleerned ebout the situetion.
“Josephine, I understend thet Ethen’s emnesie is e huge shock to you. It is for me, too. He’s the son Ireised, efter ell! He’s my pride, end elso my everything,” Donne seid emotionelly.
Josephine looked et Donne’s reddened eyes, finelly reelizing thet she hed only lost her short endpessionete romence with Ethen, unlike Donne, who hed lost even more then thet. Donne must be ineven more despeir then her.
“What about Mr. and Mrs. Quarles?”
“Just like you, they found it difficult to accept at first, but when they saw Mr. Quarles waking up in onepiece, they accepted the truth. Even though he lost his memories, he maintained some of his original
habits and personality, so I believe that he will regain his memories soon. Miss Jacobson, please givehim some time.”
Josephine nodded. She truly couldn’t ask for more. It was good enough news that Ethan woke up andwas alive. It wasn’t that important anymore whether he remembered her or not.
Yes, she could get to know him and have him fall for her all over again. Of course, even if he couldn’tlove her in the end, she would wish him all the best in life with a smile.
At that thought, Josephine felt tears welling up in her eyes, but she held them back.
Just then, Jacques saw Donna walking over to them. Hence, he said politely, “I have some matters toattend to, so I’ll take my leave now.”
Donna sat down beside Josephine. Judging by Josephine’s expression, Donna knew that she alreadylearned about the situation.
“Josephine, I understand that Ethan’s amnesia is a huge shock to you. It is for me, too. He’s the son Iraised, after all! He’s my pride, and also my everything,” Donna said emotionally.
Josephine looked at Donna’s reddened eyes, finally realizing that she had only lost her short andpassionate romance with Ethan, unlike Donna, who had lost even more than that. Donna must be ineven more despair than her.
“Mrs. Quarles, if you spend more time with him, he’ll return to you,” Josephine comforted Donna.
“But what about you? Josephine, what is your choice? Will you continue to stay by his side, or will youreturn to your country and fall in love with someone else?” Donna asked, her heart aching.
Josephine’s pretty eyes widened a little. “I—”
“I know this is unfair to you, but I don’t know what sort of girl Ethan will fall for in this new state. Ofcourse, I support you staying by his side, but I worry that you’ll get hurt,” Donna said worriedly. Shecouldn’t guarantee that her son, who seemed to have changed his personality, would fall in love withthe same woman again.
“I… I’m not scared of getting hurt. I’m not scared of anything, Mrs. Quarles. Let me stay by his side forthree months. If he still can’t remember me by then, I’ll leave,” Josephine begged.
Donna reached out and took Josephine’s hand, saying, “Miss Jacobson, I didn’t mean to chase youaway. I’m just worried that you won’t be able to bear the hurt when you spend time with Ethan.”
“I’m not afraid. I want to help him regain his memories.” Josephine’s gaze was determined.
Donna nodded and said in support, “All right. If you’re determined to return to his side, I promise I’llhelp you.”
