She did not bat an eyelid nor open her eyes. She looked like she was soundly asleep.
Liam thought that she was asleep and softened his footsteps. Carefully adjusting her covers, Liam gently
stroked her head.
Ivy could not help but flinch.
Liam smiled. " V, you’re awake, aren't you? Open up your eyes if you're awake. Take a look at what delicious
food that I've got for you."
Ivy then slowly opened up her eyes.
Liam showed a lunch box in front of her and said, "Look, I've made you dessert. Would you like to try some?"
Ivy took a glance at him and nodded, still staring at him, she then said, "Liam, you're Miss Yanne's fiance, you
should go back to her."
Liam did not expect that this would be the first thing that Ivy would say to him.
He kept silent for a moment before holding her hand in his. "V, I told you, haven’t I? That I'm not marrying
Yanne and I will spend the rest of my life by your side."
"I'm fine being alone, I don't need you to stay by my side, " She replied.
"But I want to be with you." Liam leaned over and kissed her on the lips. "V, you are the person that I love and that is why I want to stay by you."
"If you really love me, why would you get engaged with some other woman and even get her pregnant?"
Liam seemingly froze, staring at her, he asked, "What’s wrong, V? Did someone stop by earlier?"
"Liam, that's not the point."
"V."
"Please. Call me Ivy," Ivy went on, "I've embarrassed myself in front of you countless times in the past months, and for that, I'm sorry."
"V, you...you've remembered everything?"
"Yes, I have,” Ivy nodded and added, "I’ve remembered everything."
Liam was at a sudden loss for words.
After a moment, Liam uttered slowly, "V, I'm really sorry. You won't blame me for what I've done, right?" © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
"Blame you for?"
"Don't you think that I was taking advantage of you?"
"It's fine. It's not like I'm naive or anything like that," Ivy shook her head and went on, "besides, I am really
grateful for you for the past few months. If it wasn't for you, I might be roaming out in the streets."
"No, that will never happen." Liam shook his head. "V, even if I didn't bring you back to Jay mansion, you wouldn’t have been out in the streets because you still have Josiah and Meredith."
At the mention of their names, Ivy who was calm suddenly got all worked up.
Covering her ears with both of her hands, Ivy shook her head furiously and said, "Don't! Don't mention their names in front of me! I don't want to hear them!"
"V, what’s wrong?" Liam asked, worried.
"They must be praying that I'd just die like that, right?” Tears were rolling out from her eyes as she sobbed,"
And especially Meredith, she must hate me a lot, she must...”
"No, V. Don’t think like that." Liam removed the hands on her ears and comforted her gently, "Listen to me, Joe
and Meredith knew that you only did what you did out of desperation. They've never blamed or resented you.
Quite the contrary, they were worried about you after knowing that you got into a car accident."
"How is that possible? I even hate myself for what I did, how could they not hate me?" still sobbing, Ivy went
on, "Liam, do you know why I don't want to see anyone?
Because I can’t bring myself to. I'd rather that I never woke up."
"I don't understand why I woke up, I really didn't want to
IV
"But don't you know how badly all of US wanted you to wake up? Be it Joe or Meredith, even Cooper was
wishing and praying that you'd get better soon."
"Cooper..." Ivy felt a wrench in her heart as she said, "I am most indebted to both Meredith and Cooper, I know
Cooper hates me all this while and he would never wish that I woke up."
"V, you're overthinking it. They are not as calculative as you think."
Ivy suddenly paused before saying, "You’re right, they are all kind souls and why would they hate me? How
could I think of them that way?"
Wiping away the tears on her face, she went on, "I am the worst. Who am I to even assume what they're
thinking."
