Chasing Back My Ex-wife

Chapter 84

"Can we talk another day?" Arthur was still unconscious. She really didn't have the mood to chat with him!

Chad shook his head. "Sister-in-law, there are some things that I want to talk to you about now."

"Alright, then let's try our best to cut to the chase." Lucy looked in the direction of the ward, took a few steps forward, and stood by the window.

Honglong!

The sound of thunder suddenly rang out, and the rain fell on the ground.

The rain came too suddenly. The patients who were taking a walk downstairs, as well as the family members of the patients, rushed to the hospital.

"There are some things that can't be said in a short amount of time." Chad's gaze shifted from the window to Lucy. His gaze was deep as he said, "Sister-in-law, I know that Arthur used to treat you as Sheng Wan's substitute and he didn't treat you well. There is resentment and hatred in your heart, and that's why you pretended to be dead when the plane was off and cut off all contact with Arthur."

Lucy's pale face became a little uglier. When she thought of that period of time, she felt a burst of pain in her heart, as if thousands of needles had pierced into her fingertips at the same time.

The substitute was a thorn in her heart that was difficult to remove.

The more she loved Arthur, the deeper this thorn was buried! It was so deep that it was stuck in the

center of her heart. Even if she cut the whole heart, she might not be able to find it!

"But since you left, Arthur has never had a good day." Thinking of Arthur's decadent life back then, he still had a lingering fear. "He found a lot of people on the plane to look for you on the scene. He turned the whole place upside down just to find you." Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Lucy looked out of the window at the increasingly heavy rain. His heart was incomparably complicated.

Five years ago, she signed the divorce agreement and sent him a text message before leaving. Although she had made up her mind to leave at that time, she still hoped that he could persuade her to stay.

However... he didn't even ask!

She was so disappointed that she made up her mind to go to Southerland and completely forgot him! She didn't expect that the traffic jam was so serious that she missed the plane!

Later, she heard that Arthur was looking for her, but she didn't contact him. Since she wanted to end it, then it was all over!

But she didn't expect that he would spend so much effort looking for her!

Chad took a deep breath and continued, "Everyone said that they couldn't find you. You must be dead. But Arthur didn't believe that he abandoned all his work in the group and spent the whole year looking for you at the place where the plane was parked."

"During that time, he seemed to be crazy. He only slept for four or five hours a day. When he opened his eyes, he continued to look for you. He was so thin that he looked like a bag of bones. I was persuading other people to persuade Arthur to give up the idea of looking for you. Later, he got annoyed and gave me a beating. He almost broke up with me because of this!"

She had never heard of these things before. Lucy's limbs went weak, as if he was about to fall onto the ground. She could only forcefully support herself against the wall to maintain her standing posture.

Arthur had never told her about these things...

Chad blinked his eyes and forced back the tears in his eyes. "One year has passed, but Arthur still hasn't found you. Uncle and Aunt are worried that Arthur will go crazy, so they want to find a new daughter-in-law so that Arthur can divert his attention."

"But Arthur was not interested in other women. Uncle and Aunty drugged him and arranged for Lizbeth to sleep with him. But that day, he threw the naked Lizbeth out of the room and struggled to survive!"

Lucy bit his lower lip. His heart couldn't help but feel bitter, and even his voice was a bit hoarse. "Didn't he have a woman outside? Why didn't he look for them?"

He often mocked her, saying that except for the title of Mrs. Johnson, she was not much better than other women!

Every time she replied with a smile, there seemed to be a big hole in her heart. Blood flowed out and hurt so much that it was empty!

"You're the only one who believes in Arthur's nonsense." Chad's smile was very soft, and it was even

uglier than crying. "Arthur has never had any other woman other than you. Sheng Wan has always been the only one in his heart. I've found a lot of women for him, and he never touched them."

Hearing the name 'Elyse', Lucy's face stiffened. His heart, which was a little bitter and warm, instantly froze.

Seeing this, Chad lit a cigarette and took a deep breath. "Sister-in-law, tell me the truth. If it weren't for the fact that you look exactly like Elyse, you wouldn't have done anything good even if you drugged Arthur!"

Lucy wanted to say, "I didn't drug Arthur, but in the end, I didn't say anything. Since it has already been so far, who would care about this insignificant matter?"

In fact, even if Chad didn't say that, she could guess the truth.

That night, Arthur sprinted frantically on top of her, but he kept calling out Elyse's name! She knew that she was probably no match for that dead woman for the rest of her life!

"Sister-in-law." Chad spat out a mouthful of smoke and looked at her through the smoke. "I know you'll still mind Elyse, but she's dead. You're the one who's with Arthur now, and he cares about you as well. Why do you care so much?"

He put out the cigarette and raised his voice. "A while ago, you were kidnapped. He didn't sleep all day just to save you. This time, you have to leave. In order to keep you here, Arthur is still lying in the hospital bed in a coma! This doesn't mean that Arthur cares about you?"

Lucy's face was burning hot, and the corners of his eyes were dry. His heart was hot and guilty.

Arthur had done so much for her and almost died. However, she had been running away from his feelings and was still blaming a dead person. She was too narrow-minded!

"Cough, cough!"

Suddenly, two coughs came from the ward. Lucy's pupils constricted and he immediately entered the ward.

There was a hint of joy on Chad's tired face. He ran to the ward in a hurry. When he ran to the door, he made another turn and shouted—

"Doctor, my Arthur is awake!"

...

"I just did a check-up for Mr. Johnson. The wound on his body is quite serious. He must have a good rest," the doctor said after the check-up.

Chad couldn't hide his joy. "Thank you, doctor!"

...

"Are you... feeling uncomfortable now?" Lucy looked at Arthur and hesitated for a long time. He didn't know what to say.

In the hospital bed, Arthur looked at him without blinking. He didn't speak or do anything else, just like a

dummy.

"Hey! Arthur? Can you see me? Can you hear me?" Chad swayed a few times in front of him, and the joy on his face faded away little by little. His voice was full of fear. "Sister-in-law, Arthur seems to have become stupid. I'll go find a doctor!"

After that, he was about to run out!
