Rowan had always been held in high regard all her life.
She had been courted by countless people, but she had ignored them all.
Greyson was the first person to do this to her.
How in the world could anyone not like her?
She was the most perfect woman in every sense of the word!
When she was first told that she was to be joined in marriage to Greyson, she was satisfied.
After all, it was thought that only such a man would be worthy of her.
But when Greyson annulled the marriage with her, she didn't know how she felt.
Upset? Irritated? Shame?
In short, all her bad emotions came out.
Her pride did not allow her to make any move to retain him.
But when she got home and calmed down, she was very uncomfortable inside.
Why should she be abandoned by him?
If she was to be abandoned, she should be the one to do it!
The imbalance in her heart felt as if it was about to consume her.
She had been unable to eat or sleep for the past few days. It was all because of that man!
But then she got a call from Finnley today.
Finnley had said that Greyson's memory was faulty and he had mistaken her for that woman?
How ridiculous! So much for his love.
In that case...
Rowan collected her thoughts and looked at the man in the hospital bed. She went up to him and took his hand, "I'm not hard. As long as you're okay."
Although this gave her the feeling of winning without a fight, she couldn't care anymore about that at the moment.
Greyson felt her touch and the warmth of her skin, but he felt a little strange. He even subconsciously wanted to pull his hand back.
But he resisted.
He reassured himself that maybe he was only like this because of the aftermath of the car accident.
It didn't matter! As long as he had spent enough time with Rowan, it must have been fine.
With that in mind, he held Rowan's hand tightly and smiled at her.
Finnley stood aside. Watching the intimate interaction between the two, he nodded in satisfaction. He couldn't stop the smile on the corner of his mouth.
...
Jensen brought Hattie to the hospital.
The doctor examined her carefully but was silent with a frown.
The two of them looked at each other. They both saw unease in each other's eyes.
