Lost Me Gained Regret

Dr. Andrews nodded. "That's one way to put it."

My heart sank.

"Jane."

Suddenly, I heard my mom's voice and turned to see her walking towards me, enveloping me in a warm hug. "I've missed you so much, honey."

"Mom!"

I let out a sigh of relief, feeling a bit more grounded, though I hadn't had the chance to explain the situation to her before the door behind us burst open.

And there, I watched, stunned, as Victor wrapped my mom in a tight embrace.

Grinning foolishly, he exclaimed, "Honey!"

Me: ?

Christine: ??

My mom: ???

After about two seconds of silence, my mom let out a shriek that nearly lifted the hospital's ceiling.

Luckily, Victor was weak, and she managed to break free with a little struggle.

"What the heck?"

My mom shivered, brushing herself off as if she'd been touched by something filthy.

Victor looked hurt, turning to my grandmother, "Mom, why?"

My mom was speechless.

My grandmother hadn't fully grasped the situation yet, but it was clear she was getting the picture.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

"You've got the wrong person. She's not your wife."

"But she is. She's my wife."

Victor reached out for my mom's hand, but she quickly stepped back several paces, dodging him as if he were the plague. "Why?"

Victor grabbed me, standing beside him, desperate and turning to my grandmother, "Daughter, mom, look, this is mine and Bella's daughter, Bella is my wife."

Me: "..."

Christine quickly intervened, separating me and Victor.

Victor started to cry, his face turning red with urgency, asking my grandmother, "Mom, why won't they talk to me?"

We all looked at Dr. Andrews.

Dr. Andrews cleared his throat, "It's exactly as you see."

I was desperate, "There's really no cure?"

This was even more frightening than when he was lucid.

Dr. Andrews shook his head, "Being alive is already a miracle. The damage is irreversible."

"...Okay, thanks, Dr. Andrews."

Dr. Andrews replied with a "You're welcome" and went on his way.

My mom couldn't take it anymore and said, "Jane, I'll wait for you in the car."

With that, she made a quick exit.

I didn't really want to stay either, but my grandmother was still here.

Our eyes met. "Ramona..."

"You go ahead. I'll be fine here."

But how could I leave her, especially when she was still feeling under the weather?

That sounded like a plan.

I was about to inform Gregory when I learned Dr. Andrews had already filled him in.

"Lost his marbles?"

Hearing this, Gregory stopped twirling his pen, "He's not faking it?"

Dr. Andrew's replied, "If it's not genuine madness, he couldn't fake this level of reality, especially considering he was once the head of the Myers family."

Gregory pondered for a few seconds, then said, "Alright, got it."

"And how's Ramona?"

Dr. Andrew's informed, "She's with

normal I've checked her over, no issues. As long as Victor is okay, she should be too."

Gregory hummed in acknowledgment, then noticed an incoming call.

He glanced at the caller ID, telling Dr. Andrews, "I've got to take this. Talk later."

Holding my phone, I started speaking in a deflated tone once the call connected.

"Gregory..."

"Yeah, I'm here."

His voice was tender on the other end, "Why do you sound so down?"

I wasn't quite sure how to explain, so I just sighed.

Gregory chuckled, "Did you call me internationally just to let me hear you sigh?"

Taking a deep breath, I shared everything about Victor with him.
