Married by Accident, Taming the Billionaire novel Chapter 293

Chapter 293 Her Words Are Gut-wrenching

Shepard's expression showed that he was now quite nervous about any news regarding Cynthia.

After hearing his sister's shout that something was wrong, he became so frightened because he thought Cynthia had complications.

"Come and see Cynth, brother. She doesn't seem to recognize us!"

Ariella pulled her brother inside, and the latter came to the bed, scrutinizing the woman lying on it.

Previously, she couldn't speak and her gaze was vacant, but now she seemed to look better, and her eyes were more flexible.

"Can Cynthia speak now?" Shepard asked, and everyone around him nodded.

Seeing the restored vitality in Cynthia's eyes, Shepard finally felt relieved. He asked gingerly, "Do you remember who I am, Cynthia?"

Cynthia looked at him faintly and simply said, "A doctor..."

Shepard and a group of doctors had been here to examine her earlier, so she remembered him.

"I am a doctor, but I am Shepard, Shepard Nuno!"

"Oh..."

Cynthia's reaction was truly distressing, but Shepard asked persistently, "Do you remember the day you came to watch me play basketball in a match?"

She shook her head, showing she didn't remember. She didn't know who this doctor was and why he was asking her the things she didn't know. It was strange!

"You really don't remember? What about last week when you came to my office and said you wanted to watch a movie with me? Do you remember that? And what about the last time..."

Shepard bombarded her with questions, his tone urgent.

Cynthia viewed him as someone insane.

With her head starting to feel uncomfortable, she didn't want to answer so many strange questions.

She shook her head and turned her face away, closing her eyes.

The atmosphere became cold, and Shepard's eager gaze was met with Cynthia's cold rejection and avoidance.

This was something that had never happened before. When Cynthia was fine, every time she saw him, she would be smiling with eyes full of adoration for him.

But she had forgotten everything now. There was no adoration in her eyes when she looked at him.

This was what it felt like to be suddenly forgotten by someone!

Shepard couldn't accept it, feeling bitter and painful.

He could still remember the scene of pulling her back from the brink of death, but she had no idea how upset, anxious, and worried he had been at that time.

But now, only he could remember that pain!

Outside the ward, Shepard was feeling down. Cecelia consoled him, "Don't be so worried, Shepard. Cynth might remember as she gets further recovery."

"What if she can't remember anything about me?"

As a doctor, he could anticipate the possible postoperative complications for Cynthia, but he was still afraid.

Others didn't know one thing. It was when Cynthia had an accident that Shepard knew his own feelings.

He had vowed that when Cynthia woke up, he would agree to date her and would cherish her with his heart and soul.

But now, things didn't unfold as he had imagined. The roles between him and Cynthia seemed to have reversed.

When he fell in love with her, she didn't remember him!

"Don't think too much, Shepard. It might just be temporary. I believe Cynth will get better."

With Cecelia's comfort, Shepard's mood improved somewhat.

And all of them stayed at the hospital. Cecelia watched her younger brother, and Remington kept her company and would occasionally go check on her sister.
