Chapter 1088
No matter how composed and natural Garett tried to appear, Eleanor couldn’t fully believe him. She
knew he would do his best to conceal the truth from her Garett always took it upon himself to shoulder
everything ensuring she wouldn’t be affected in any way
Eleanor understood him very well and knew that beneath his calm facade, he might be struggling
tremendously at the moment
“Garett, Hailey has already informed me about your condition. You don’t need to hide it from me,” she
gently confronted him.
Garett acted as if he suddenly remembered something, looking at Eleanor with a faint smile “Actually
the doctors misdiagnosed I didn’t have a chance to tell Hailey before you both arrived”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTo prove his words, Garett look out his phone and found the contact information of the depression
specialist, offering it to Eleanor. “If you don’t believe me, you can call my doctor. He shouldn’t deceive
you when caught off guard, right?”
But who’s to say if he had already communicated with the doctor before knowing she would come?
After contemplating for a moment, Eleanor pushed away the phone Garett handed her “Garett, I plan to
come and see you every day Are you sure you don’t want that?” This was her way of giving him an
opportunity to be together again. How could Garett not want that?
“If you come to see me, what about Bernard” Garett trailed off, subconsciously glancing at the watch on
his wrist. It hadn’t been two hours yet, and he felt a slight sense of relief
“I’ve already discussed it with him, and he agrees to let me come and see you” Depressed individuals
don’t need persuasion or warnings. They need companionship Even without speaking, just having
someone by their side can make them feel slightly better.
Eleanor believed that only through this way could he find redemption, and she could find a way to
resolve her deep–seated quilt
Upon hearing that it was her and Bernard’s arrangement, Garett’s smile shifted from relaxed to
bittersweet. “Eleanor, there are already Yilia, Colter, my father, doctors, and nurses at home. There are
plenty of people, you really don’t need to accompany me.”
He remained upright and honest, even though he truly wished Eleanor could be by his side. However,
to avoid jeopardizing their relationship, he declined.
He understood that if they were to meet daily and be together all the time, he might not be able to
contro! his emotions. He worried not about Eleanor, but about himself. How could he not yearn for her
when she was so close?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHer tears, hot as boiling water, hit Garett’s heart, making his eyes well up too.
“Eleanor, don’t worry. I’ll stay strong”
The one thing that kept him going was Eleanor
“I know you’d be devastated if anything happened to me. So, I’ll stay strong”
It was only because of Eleanor that he could fight depression, otherwise, he would have given up long
ago.
With tears in his eyes. Garett gazed at Eleanor, a faint, pure smile on his face.
“You said you’d be with me in the afterlife. I have to wait for you to leave this world before I can follow.
I’m afraid you wouldn’t find me if I left first
“You’re such a foot..”
Garett laughed again.
“If I weren’t a fool, how could I forget you?”
Those words let loose another wave of tears from Eleanor’s eyes.
