NovelEnglishChapter 805 Dr. Stone had been chatting with her for nearly three hours, and when he finally handed over the diagnosis, he was pretty taken aback.
"Ms. Selena, when you cfor your follow-up six months ago, everything was looking good. You didn't even need the meds anymore. But now, things have taken a tic turn for the worse..." Selena gave a resigned smile, "Six months ago, I was hoping my love would return. Now, he's back, but... he's not the person I was hoping for." "I tried, at first, to love him again, but I realized he's reverted to the person I dreaded most. I'm too scared to love him again, too afraid of being abandoned once more, afraid that I'll never be his first choice." "I want to escape. As long as I guard my heart, I won't get hurt. But he won't let me. He doesn't love me, yet always demands love from me. Doctor, I'm exhausted. I really don't know what to do..." "Now, every twe're close, I feel nothing. He's unhappy, and so am I. I go along with him, try to appease him, but it's useless. Nothing works." She and Everett were caught in a vicious cycle again.
What she wanted and what he wanted were never on the spage.

Dr. Stone did his best to comfort Selena and increased her medication, reminding her to keep a positive mindset and try to stay cheerful.
Finally, he made a suggestion that left Selena stunned for a moment before she nodded in understanding. "Got it, thank you, Doctor." As she stepped out of the consultation room, a familiar figure was waiting at the door.
Selena looked up, first surprised, then a smile spread across her face. "Dr. Campbell, when did you get back?" Callum had previously taken Everett abroad for treatment. Even though Everett had returned hafter recovering, Callum stayed behind to continue his medical research.
Callum smiled, "I got back last night, just visiting family." In reality, that wasn't the whole truth.
He'd heard that Selena had an appointment with Dr. Stone and suspected she might be ill aWorked, he decided to cback and see her.
Judging by her appearance now... she indeed didn't look well.
Callum didn't bring up her illness, but instead, acted like an old friend who hadn't seen her in ages. "It's been so long shouldn't you treatto a meal?" "Of course." Selena was genuinely happy, a rare smile gracing her face. "Cover for dinner. Mateo has missed you." "Alright." As evening approached, the sky was painted with colorful hues.

Ava was thrilled to see Callum, rolling up her sleeves and announcing she would prepare a feast to properly welchim.
Haley, who had been too young to remember Callum before, wasn't the least bit shy now. Perhaps she thought he was handsome, as she ran over, clinging to his leg, refusing totet go. Drooling slightly, she exclaimed, "Uncle, you're so handsome!" Selena could only shake her head.
It seemed Haley was destined to fall for good looks in the future, purely judging by appearances! Laughter occasionally echoed through Crescent Bay, creating a warm and joyful atmosphere.
Everett returned to Crescent Bay at nine that evening.
As his sleek black Bugatti rolled into the driveway, he could hear the laughter from inside, along with a man's voice.
His brow furrowed sharply.
