Chapter 160
Elijah sounded very masal, and 1 couldn't help but ask, “Elijah, are you alright?"
He sounded surprised. "Ai, are you worried to me?
I could only choose to divert the topic. "wanted to ask you why you made that public apology."
In a deep and low voice, Elijah answered, "I was in the wrong so felt like I needed to apologize to you
I sighed. "You don't have to do that. Elijah, you don't have to humble yourself like this."
In that same deep tone, Elijah replied. "Ari, I'm nuly sorry. I didn't think that I would've hurt you so badly. It really broke my heart to see that look in your eyes at the beach that day-
Évo hurt you
Tinterrupted him immediately. "That's enough. I don't want to talk about that."
An artigidity
around me because I was not mentally prepared to face that dark past at all. Even though so much time had passed, I still wished that I could disappear from this earth whenever I thought about that time. Elijah apologized, "Thery, ALI-
Feeling annoyed, I said, "You don't have to apologize. I don't need your apology"
in a dull voice, he asked, "What would you like me to do, then?",
ped, "Divorce me since you're aware that you were in the wrong, let's just have an amicable divorce and not go to couLL"
On the other end of the call, Elijah started guttowing all of a sudden. A he laughed, he started coughing intensely
I waited patiently
Finally, he was done laughing and coughing, in a low voice, he remarked, "Ari, so, it turns out that you're calling me to get me to divorce you."
I said, "That's right. Our relationship can't go back to the way it was before. Your apology isn't going to do anything."
It was an of Elijah hch't heard what I said. He asked, "Ari, you love me very much. Why did you change so quickly?
I didn't dare to blurt out just any reason. In a soft voice, I said, "I-I just don't love you anymore. I've been hurt enough. I don't love you anymore. Elijah—”
Heisterjected. "Ari, do you know? 1 teel that you've changed ever since that fight and after you came back from the hospital in the past, no matter how badly we fought or how mad you were, you would forge me within a week. We'd then be able to reconcile. Why is it different this time? Why must you divorce me? I don't get ir ".
I really couldn't continue this conversation with him
I said, “Elijah, that's enough. I've given you my reason cimless times I don't love you anymore. I've had enough, and I w
want to leave you!
Suddenly, Elijah utteredcoldy, "Ari, you've lost your memories and forgotten. Because you forgot me, you no longer remember the fact that you love me. Is that right?"
I paused for a few seconds. Fould't focus on listening to what he said after that. Lended the call mercilessly, then blocked his number again.
Noticing that I looked upset, Teri inquired cautiously, "What did he say?"
After a while, 1 explained, "He knows that I've lost my memories."
Teri covered her mouth immediately. "How did he know!"
Anriously, the continued, "Do you think you shouldn't have made that call? Webb told us not to be in contact with Elijah privately. Damn it. That cunning Elijah must have been trying to trick you into saying things you shouldn't say. Bloody hell!" Tell was completely repirital
After a momented repet, I felt at ease,
I failed to hide the fam that i had lost my memories, but someone as bright as Elijah would have figured it out sooner or later. It was just that I hadn't expected him to figure it out so quickly. Alter calming myself down, I said, "Moving forward, you shouldn't be in contact with him in private either. Let's just wait for the court hearing"
1 I looked at my leg, which was in a cast, then let out a long exule
This journey to getting a drore was much, much more difficult than I had imagined.
