Chapter 106


    Eleanor smiled, feeling a bit silly. What did their wedding have to do with her?


    Seeing her bitter smile, Jason furrowed his brows slightly.


    “What’s wrong?”


    Eleanor shook her head, not answering, but her eyes were filled with sadness


    Jason thought she was bothered by what Cedric said and quickly reassured, “Don’t worry about


    Cedric’s words. He’s just targeting me because I called off the marriage with his sister and


    embarrassed him. It has nothing to do with you.”


    Eleanor nodded. No one would care about her feelings anyway.


    Seeing the desperation in her eyes, Jason’s frown deepened. “You look very upset. Did something


    happen?”


    Is it that obvious?


    Eleanor touched her stiff face, which was cold and without any warmth.


    She must look terrifying, right?


    Eleanor forced a smile, “Nothing’s wrong. I just don’t feel well.”


    Jason somewhat believed her excuse, “Is it your leg bothering you?”


    She couldn’t walk, so it must be the problem with her leg.


    However, when he was carrying her earlier, he hadn’t noticed anything unusual.


    Eleanor nodded, “My leg is a bit swollen. It might be due to varicose veins.”


    She was wary of Jason, unsure if he was truly amnesiac or just pretending, so she chose to hide the


    truth for now.


    Though Jason knew the symptoms of varicose veins wouldn’t normally impair walking, he didn’t dare


    ask more. Thest time he inquired about her condition at the vi, she had gotten angry. It was better


    not to provoke her again.


    Jason didn’t press further, but he was concerned about her well–being, “Let Tyler check you out. He’s a


    terrific doctor, and I’m sure he can fix any issues you have.”


    Eleanor’s smile grew more bitter, “No need.”


    It’s almost time for her to die, so what’s the point of wasting medical resources?


    “You…”


    Jason wanted to persuade her further, but Eleanor turned to look out the window, seemingly refusing to


    continue the conversation. He had no choice but to shut up.


    Soon, they arrived at Eleanor’s neighborhood, and Jason parked the car, carried her upstairs.


    Eleanor wasn’t eager to let him know where she lived, but there was no choice under the


    circumstances.


    After unlocking the door, Jason carried her inside.


    “Put me on the couch.”


    Jason nodded, walked to the couch, and gently put her down.


    After sitting up straight, Eleanor looked at Jason. Thank you”


    Although she expressed her gratitude, it was evident that she was implying he could leave.


    Feeling a bit ufortable, Jason remained gentle, “Take a few days to rest at home. You don’t have


    to stay with me for now.”


    He then turned to leave.

    As he passed the dining room, he noticed a picture on the wine cab.


    It was a photo of her and Hailey, both looking young and naive.


    He stopped and picked up the photo, realizing it had been cropped.


    It should have been a picture of three people, but the person next to Eleanor was cut out.


    He subconsciously thought that person was himself, and once that idea emerged, he felt disoriented.


    Seeing him holding their old photo, Eleanor hurriedly said, “Mr. Clowers, have you asked for my


    permission before looking at the photo?”


    Jason was about to recall something when Eleanor’s voice interrupted him.


    He returned to reality, feeling a bit embarrassed as he looked at Eleanor, “Sorry”


    He put the photo back on the wine cab and left.


    After Jason left, Eleanor nced at the photo as well. It was the only photo Hailey kept rted to


    Garett


    Hailey had said that after she went to B City, someone broke into the house they rented and destroyed


    all photos rted to Garett. This photo of the three of them was saved because it was hidden inside a


    book.


    However, when she returned from B City, she cut Garett out of the picture with her own hands.


    She had been fed up since he had kicked her twice back then and she refused to see anything rted


    to Garett


    Looking back, they were probably destined not to be together, which was why they lost contact. But


    that was all in the past now.


    Eleanor snapped back to reality, took out the medicine from her bag, poured herself a ss of water,


    and swallowed the pills.


    After taking the medicine, she turned on the TV, listened to the vague sounds, then closed her eyes


    and fell asleep.
