Chapter 774


    Chapter 774 I Have Trust in Her


    James fell into a short silence that gave her some hope. Perhaps, he was hesitant to


    call off the engagement because he could sense her efforts and sacrifice. Her eyes


    were sparkling with hope, which didn’t escape James’ keen observation.


    He chuckled. “Did you really think I’d feel sorry to do so?”


    Startled, the color on her face quickly went away again.


    “I’ll announce the canction publicly in a few days. You can leave by then, ” he


    informed her. She felt cold from head to toe as she sensed the disdain in his eyes.


    Yes, he was mocking her.


    She maintained herposure with what was left in her. Perhaps, she had matured


    after going through ups and downs in life. She took a deep breath and uttered, “Sure.


    Let’s do that.’


    With that, she retired to her bedroom, the only ce that belonged to her in the vi.


    The tiny space wouldn’t be hers for long, though. She couldn’t hold it in anymore and


    sobbed in the nket. Even then, she had to keep the volume down so James


    wouldn’t find out.


    On the other hand, James was surprised at how calmly she returned to her room. He


    expected her to cry and beg him not to call off the engagement. Hence, he was


    mentally prepared to deal with the scene, but the announcement went so smoothly


    that it almost felt surreal, even disturbing.


    On the next day, Jenny contacted different hospital departments for a medical


    consensus on Alec’s condition. After a discussion, they decided on the best strategy


    and the date of the surgery. Later, Jenny had the hospital staff inform Alec about the


    surgery date instead of doing it herself, mostly because she didn’t want any personal


    contact with him outside of work. She’d delegate anything that she could.


    When Alec received the call from the hospital, he agreed to the date but was bothered


    that Jenny didn’t personally contact him to ry the news. He thought, “She really


    didn’t want to have anything to do with me.’


    “Was that from the hospital? Informing you about the date of the surgery?’ ke sat


    across from him and pieced the information together from his conversation.


    “Mhmm.” He didn’t deny it.


    She lowered her head, an unreadable look shing in her eyes. “Is it fixed? I heard


    that the risk is quite high. What if…”


    “I have trust in her,’ he muttered. She unknowingly clenched her fists tighter under the


    table but kept on smiling. “Is that so? I have heard of Dr. Walter’s reputation. They


    said she never had any failed surgeries. I guess you have a reason to trust her.”


    Alec did not utter a word. Due to his memory loss, he could not recall anything about


    Dr. Walter, but he had an unexinable trust in her, perhaps because she was Jenny


    Walter.


    “In my opinion, your mental health is in good shape now, but if you choose to regain


    your memories, your current condition might be affected,” ke voiced her concerns,


    which she had brought up to Alec earlier but ignored. Still, she wanted to remind him


    of the downside, mostly because she was secretly against the surgery.


    She couldn’t be sure if Alec’s love for Jenny were due to some psychologicalplex


    or purely out of attraction. No matter what, if Alec regained his memories, she would


    be at a disadvantage beProperty ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
