A Night's Mistake: The Besotted CEO's Obsession novel Chapter 276

Chapter 276 

Anthony stayed in the cabin for several days. He either followed Theodore around, trailed behind Isabella, or cooked dishes in the kitchen every day. Even though he usually turned the kitchen into a mess, he still found great joy in it. 

In the past few days, labella’s attitude toward him changed. Anthony could feel that her resistance was gradually disappearing. 

Everything moved in a good direction, and Anthony greatly enjoyed the 

present moments. 

The unexpected happened one day. 

On that day, Isabella decided to go up the mountain to gather herbs to keep at home for emergencies. 

Anthony was worried, so after leaving the child with George and Layla, he followed along. 

Concerned about Anthony’s health, Isabella didn’t go into the mountains. Instead, she searched for herbs along the 

e riverbank. 

The riverside was densely vegetated, with plenty of weeds underfoot. The herbs were covered by weeds, so one had to bend down and search carefully to spot them. 

Isabella was focused on finding herbs, so she didn’t watch her step and missed her footing, falling straight into the river with a splash. 

“Isabella,” Anthony exclaimed in shock, and his heart skipped a beat. A familiar fear surged from deep within him as if he had experienced this before. His head throbbed with intense pain, feeling as though something was on the verge of bursting our 

“Ah!” He couldn’t help but b 

burst into a low growl. 

As he saw Isabella sink gradually, a voice in his heart kept reminding him, Anthony, save her. Quickly save her. Don’t let the past regrets repeat themselves.” 

Enduring intense pain, Anthony braced himself and jumped into the river. At the instant he grabbed the sinking Isabella, his mind cleared up suddenly. The fragmented images that had always been blurry in his mind connected 

In the water, a touch of affection glimmered in Anthony’s eyes. His body trembled as he held Isabella tightly. It was as if he embraced a precious 

treasure reclaimed. 

After being dragged onto the shore, babella was already unconscious from drowning. 

Anthony laid her flat on the ground, swiftly cleared her mouth, and bent over to perform mouth–to–mouth resuscitation. His breathing was rapid, and his eyes were filled with urgent crimson. “Izzy, wake up. Please wake up. I finally found you. You can’t leave me. 

As time went by, Isabella still had no sign of waking up. Anthony’s hands trembled uncontrollably. 

Finally, at the last moment, Isabella coughed out a mouthful of water and slowly regained consciousness. 

Anthony secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He held Isabella tightly in his arms and only then felt the aftershock. “Are you feeling okay?” 

Isabella felt rightness in her chest. She coughed forcefully for a while before feeling her breathing ease. She shook her head in case Anthony would 

worry 

“I was just focused on gathering herbs and didn’t watch where I was stepping, Isabella explained as she lifted her head. Just as her gaze met Anthony’s, the froze momentarily. His gaze was too familiar, sending a shiver through her. It wasn’t the look Anthony had shown in the past few days. 

Terrified, Isabella escaped from Anthony’s arms and stood more than ten feet away. She stared at him with a wary expression, and her voice trembled as she spoke. “H–Have you regained your memory!” 

Anthony’s eyes were full of concern, but his face was frozen with shock because of Isabella’s guardedness. He smiled slightly and didn’t answer the question directly. He just teasingly remarked, “Is this how you treat someone who saved your life? 

“Answer my question first Isabella insisted stubbornly, wanting to know the answer. 

*Do you want me to regain my memory?” Anthony asked in return. 

Isabella shook her head without hesitation. 

In the past. Anthony was paranoid and dangerous. In their relationship, her predominant feeling was fear. 

Anthony squinted slightly, and the mole at the corner of his eye looked unusually sinister. He gently rubbed his forehead and thought, ‘Seems like she really doesn’t want to have anything to do with any past self. If that’s the case, I’ll keep things as they are for now and wait until she fully accepts me before mentioning my memory recovery!

ith that in mind, Anthony squinted his eyes, and upon reopening them, his gaze reverted to its clear state. “Toxy, I was just in a trance, but I stil ven’t remembered anything from before. 

athony pretended to be weak as he spoke. “I’m feeling a lot of pain in my heart right now. Could you please check if I injured myself when I saved ‘u just now?” 

abella harbored doubts in her heart. She observed Anthony’s eyes and found no abnormalities. Worried that his heart might indeed have oblems, she quickly approached and supported Anthony. “Let me take a look” 

abella unbuttoned Anthony’s collar and carefully examined the surgical wound on his chest. The weather was hot, so Anthony hadn’t bandaged it. se wound had just healed and was now soaked, looking somewhat pale and scary. Worried it might affect his heart and without a stethoscope arby, Isabella instinctively lowered her head and leaned against his chest to listen carefully,
