Female Novel
Chapter 1022
After one night, Renee gradually regained her strength and woke up.
“You’re awake. How are you feeling now?”
Jovan sat beside the bed with his head low, peeling an apple.
He sliced the skin into a thin and long stripe. It did not even break until the end.
It was just like what he always did, meticulous to the last detail, leaving no space to turn around.
A painful headache pounded Renee’s head as she looked at the white ward. For a moment, she wasstunned. “Where am I? Am I still alive?”
“Of course you are. You’re so tough. How could such a puny river defeat you? What’s more, you have agreat will. You hurt your leg from the fall, but you held on until downstream. I admire that very much!”
Jovan appeared like a warm younger man as he smiled tenderly and handed Renee the apple he hadjust peeled.
Of course, she was not in the mood for apples. She frowned and asked, “Where’s Stefan? How is he?”
“Don’t worry. He has stronger willpower than yours. He lost so much blood, yet he survived theexperience. I’ve got to hand it to him too.”
Jovan sounded indifferent, but it was a fatal blow for Renee.
“What? He… Did he lose too much blood… Ah!”
She tried to stand up because of the deep shock. But she felt so much pain that her face scrunched upas the wound on her leg tore open.
“Why are you so anxious? You’re in pain now, aren’t you?”
Jovan quickly supported her wavering body and gently helped her to lie in bed. “The doctor stated thatyou need to rest. You can’t get out of bed before half a month, or ten days at least.”
“I’m fine. The key is Stefan. How is he now? Why did he lose too much blood? Is he seriously injured?He…”
“Calm down. He’s out of danger now, and Seraphina is taking close care of him. He’s pretty good.”
“Well… that’s good.”
Renee heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, her eyes turned gloomy.
Although she had long prepared herself to give Stefan up to Seraphina… When the time came, she stillcould not help feeling excruciating pain.
“His body is fine, but it looks like there’s some problem with his mind. It’s pretty troublesome.”
Jovan cut a large piece of apple and ate it casually. He then stated absent-mindedly.
“What’s wrong with his mind?”
“Hmm, he seems to have forgotten about a lot of things, and he relies so much on Seraphina until it’spathologically sick. He doesn’t let anyone get close to him except Seraphina. I could only stand at thedoor when I visited him. How pitiful!”novelbin
“Why… why did that happen?”
“No one knows. He might have hit his head hard, or it might be the severe blood loss that deprived hisbrain of oxygen. Suffice it to say; he’s lost some parts of his memories. In short, the doctor said a lot,
but I didn’t really understand much.”
When Jovan reached that point, he smiled and looked at Renee. “But you don’t care, do you? After all,you broke up with him. He’s long betrayed you. You were too silly to risk your life for that kind ofperson.”
“That’s not true. He didn’t betray me. He did everything to protect me. I was too stupid to keep hurtinghim in so many ways.”
Renee’s eyes turned watery as she sobbed and confessed.
“So, do you want to get back together with him?”
Complicated feelings washed over his eyes as he asked.
