Female Novel
Chapter 1385
“No, it’s fine.” Jovan sounded gloomy and pathetic. An existence like this made him wonder if he wasstill alive, and he had no courage to meet Renee again. He sighed and said lightly, “I decided to leaveher to set her free, and I don’t regret it.”
Knowing Renee’s character, she would not say no if he wanted to use her guilt to make her take care ofhim for the rest of his life. She would’ve readily abandoned her brother she had just been reunited with,her children, and her career half a year ago to lead a secluded life with him in Varangia, if Jovan hadasked.
During those six months, she took care of him as if he was a baby and never complained. Jovan felt itwas enough; in his opinion, it had been more than worth it giving up his eyes and body in exchange forhaving her by his side for that time. Those memories were something he looked back on fondly, and hecouldn’t ask for more.
However, Eloise couldn’t figure out why the smart, sensitive, and competitive Jovan had become sopassive.
“You haven’t forgotten about Miss Everheart, Master Jovan. Why don’t you just give it a try? What ifshe still thinks about you?novelbin
What if she’ll be surprised to see you, and decides she wants to spend the rest of her life with you?”Eloise refused to give up persuading him because she knew how miserable he was living like this.
‘I wouldn’t want that even if she does.” Jovan chuckled bitterly and said,’ Any man with dignity wouldn’twant to live like useless trash in front of their beloved.” Even though he had been cunning and deviousin the past to get what he wanted, as a man, he couldn’t abandon his dignity.
“Ah, Master Jovan… Everyone says that you’re wicked and cunning but you’re actually a caring andloyal man. Yes, they say Stefan is honest and righteous, the superior heir of Hunt Group, but I find him
to be very hypocritical. He isn’t righteous at all!”
“Hmph, what would you know?” Jovan was amused.
“I know. Miss Everheart sacrificed a lot for him. She married him and had his children but he betrayedher and wanted to marry Miss Seraphina instead. Only a man without a conscience can do that!”
“There are a lot of things you don’t know,” Jovan said wearily.
‘No, I do know things! Although I’m a maid, I’m no fool. You’d rather give up your eyes and body to be adisabled person to ease
Miss Everheart’s mind, but what about Stefan? He only values profit, so his love can’t be compared toyours at all!”
“So what?” Jovan’s deep-set eyes were blank and listless. “It’s not like you can overcome everythingwith love.”
“I’ll stop if you don’t want to win her over, but Miss Everheart has been seriously injured lately. Shecan’t take care of you either…”
“What did you say?” Instantly, Jovan’s body tensed and he asked urgently,” When and how did she gethurt? Is it serious? Why didn’t you tell me?”
‘I… I…” It had been a long time since Eloise had seen Jovan this agitated. Frightened, she swallowedand answered, “I thought that it might affect your mood, so I decided to inform you only after I got moreinformation about it…”
“What happened? Tell me!” Jovan demanded coldly as he clenched his fists. Renee was the only lightin his dark world, and he couldn’t bear it if anything happened to her.
‘I heard it was an activity organized by her kids’ kindergarten. She fell off a high platform and hurt herlower back… But I don’t know the specifics because that’s all I heard on the news.
