Chapter 668
Chapter 668 Making the Same Mistake Twice
Olive's POV:
I originally thought that the reexamination that day was just a normal part of my recovery process, but I didn't expect the little episode about that mysterious man, which gave me a headache for a whole day and night
Charlie was calling my name from behind the door of the examination room, but my ears could hear it, yet my body lacked the strength to respond, let alone the energy to speak back to him
The doctor was still afraid of causing further damage to my brain nerves, especially since my
amnesia was already related to a head injury
Therefore, he did not use the most common painkiller injection, but instead chose to give me pain relief in the form of the mildest tablet medication
Obviously, the mild dosage of medication had no relieving effect on my pain, probably just slightly stronger than a placebo. Or perhaps, my pain simply cannot be resolved by medication
At first, I could still hear clearly what the man who carried me in was saying to Charlie, but soon my consciousness became less clear, until Charlie repeatedly called me, and I woke up groggily, but only woke up
The pain, like being pricked by a needle, still occasionally stimulates me. By now, the sky outside has already turned completely dark, and my condition remains far from optimistic
Therefore, the doctor told me that I must immediately transfer to the ward for hospitalization and treatment
And so, I, who had originally come for a follow-up examination, hastily checked into the ward that was exclusively assigned to me once againExclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
That ward was at the end of the top floor corridor, and usually, apart from doctors and nurses, hardly any strangers could be seen
Charlie said that it was the ward location he specifically requested from the hospital after my accident, in order to prevent any disturbances during my recovery period
And when I was discharged last time, I told him that while it was indeed quiet here and met my requirements for the environment, I hoped to never stay here again
To my surprise, in the blink of an eye, I found myself lying on this bed again in such a disheveled state
"Olive, it was all my fault. I shouldn't have brought you to the hospital today... No, I should have arranged everything at home. It was just a follow-up appointment, and we didn't need to come in person..."
When my symptoms finally eased a lot, Charlie knelt by my bed and remorsefully recounted his regrets
In his opinion, if he hadn't suggested going to the hospital for a check-up, I wouldn't have encountered that man, and subsequently wouldn't have had a sudden headache that tormented me until dawn
His logic sounded correct, but at the same time,
it made me laugh and cry

I didn't know what kind of emotion to face Charlie with, the reason being his excessive self-blame and also because I sensed a hint of panic in his words
Yes, when mentioning that mysterious man, he felt not only anger but also panic
I didn't know where that panic came from, but what I can be sure of is that the man brought a very strong sense of crisis to Charlie
And I just lost my memory, it wasn't a cognitive impairment, so... I could roughly guess the reason behind it after calming down
Just like the romantic movies that girls often enjoy watching, I clearly found myself caught in a whirlpool between two men
As soon as I saw that man, my body would have a huge reaction. This undoubtedly served as a reminder to me, proving that even though I had lost my memory, I still had subconscious emotional impulses towards him
I think he was probably the silhouette that kept appearing in my dreams during the time when I had just returned to Marilyn's house
He was my former lover, and when we were in love, I was already Charlie's wife
Back then, I chose love above all else, and I turned against my husband, almost abandoning our infant child still in swaddling clothes. No matter what, I was unwilling to continue maintaining my own family
I didn't know if that man had a family at that time, let alone how he made his choices, but
whether he was alone or not, the fact that we loved each other was already morally wrong
Charlie loved me, just as I had once loved that man. He was even willing to lower his standards for me repeatedly, as long as I could return to the family, as long as I could stay with him
Even though I didn't have him in my heart, he was willing to gradually close the distance between us
I pieced together the hazy story from the past in my mind once again. I have to say, looking at it this way, my amnesia might really be a rare opportunity for Charlie
The opportunity to bring back one's own wife to the family was given
But the appearance of that man today
undoubtedly set off alarm bells for him
Especially after seeing my reaction, he probably found it hard not to overthink and felt like everything from the past was about to repeat itself
But I would not allow such a thing to happen
I looked up at Charlie's bloodshot eyes and shook my head gently, "It's not your fault, Charlie. I won't make the same mistake again."
