Chapter 1088


    No matter howposed 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”


    To 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 alreadymunicated with the doctor before knowing she woulde?


    After contemting for a moment, Eleanor pushed away the phone Garett handed her “Garett, I n 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 youe to see me, what about Bernard” Garett trailed off, subconsciously ncing 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 mee and see you” Depressed individuals


    don’t need persuasion or warnings. They needpanionship 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 rxed 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 apany me.”


    He remained upright and honest, even though he truly wished Eleanor could be by his side. However,


    to avoid jeopardizing their rtionship, 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?

    Her 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..”


    Garettughed again.


    “If I weren’t a fool, how could I forget you?”


    Those words let loose another wave of tears from Eleanor’s eyes.
