Chapter 16
Grace woke up in the hospital, with the smell of disinfectant filling her nostrils.
Her eyes were somewhat vacant, her mind a jumble, as if she was lost in a fog.
However, at the moment she saw Antonio, the memories of the past flooded over her like a rushing tide.
The adorable smile and gentle voice of my daughter, the kind face and warm embrace of my grandmother…
Then, those beautiful scenes were torn apart by cruel reality.
Talia’s shattered body, her grandmother’s pale face, every detail was like a sharp blade, piercing her heart mercilessly. A strong urge to escape surged within her.
She didn’t want to face it all, didn’t want to confront the painful memories of the past, and even less wanted to face Antonio, who was intricately connected to these tragedies.
Her actions woke Antonio, who was standing by the side, and his tired expression slightly eased.
“Grace, you finally woke up. Do you know how worried I was about you?”
Grace’s voice was cold.
“Thank you, Mr. Kaufman. Where is my brother?”

She silently told herself in her heart that she must pretend to have amnesia, so as not to let Antonio see any flaws. She hated him, but he still risked his life to save her.
No matter what, everything can never go back to the way it was before.
Antonio’s voice was low, but his eyes were fixed firmly on
Grace.
“He went to buy some food for you.”
“The situation was urgent, so we had to take you to the nearest hospital.”
“During the time you were unconscious, I prayed every day for you to wake up soon, Grace. I will never let you be harmed again in the future.”
This was what Grace had once dreamed of, but now it no longer stirred any ripples.
Antonio loved Yesenia so much, but now he is constantly bothering her, and she is a bit confused.
Grace didn’t turn around and said coldly.
“Mr. Kaufman, I really didn’t know you, please leave.”
“I had my own life, and you really caused me a lot of trouble.”
Antonio’s eyes flickered with pain, but he still refused to give
- up.
He constantly recounted to Grace their past memories, trying to evoke her recollection.

However, Grace kept her eyes tightly closed and turned a deaf ear to his words.
She was filled with pain in her heart, and every word felt like it was reopening the scab of her just–healed wound.
Zackery walked in carrying porridge and noticed Grace’s unpleasant expression, causing him to furrow his brows.
“Mr. Kaufman, thank you for saving my sister.”
“I also roughly understood the matter of your wife, I am sorry, but my sister indeed is not her.”
Antonio’s gaze turned cold.
“Is that so? But from the way I saw you looking at her, it wasn’t exactly innocent either.”
“That’s enough.”
Grace had already grown tired and couldn’t understand why Antonio wouldn’t let her go, even though she was already dead.
Seeing Grace getting angry, Antonio and Zackery both stopped talking.
Antonio was filled with disappointment, and he couldn’t wait for his lover to recover her memory quickly.
In the following days, Antonio would come to the hospital every day to visit Grace.
He would bring her favorite flowers, tell some interesting stories, and try to make her happy.

He didn’t talk about the past, but instead talked about the present and the future.
But Grace always turned a blind eye to his gestures of goodwill, no matter what Antonio did, she remained indifferent.
Because it was late at night and quiet, Grace lay alone in bed.
She remembered her daughter’s laughter, she remembered her grandmother’s advice, and the pain in her heart became even more intense.
The past hurts are irreparable, and she can never forgive Antonio for those mistakes.
