Chapter 1525 A long-awaited
chance
When Amelia fell silent, Ryan flashed a carefree smile at her.
“Do you come today because of my depression?” he asked
softly.
She hesitated on how to respond, but Ryan took the initiative to change the topic, sparing her from feeling too
uncomfortable.
He didn’t actually want Amelia to know, but Mr. Sherwood had
somehow figured it out, so he could only accept this.
“Yeah,” Amelia replied, lifting her teacup again, worry in her eyes as she looked at Ryan. “I heard your depression has reached a severe stage. I want to stay and go through this
difficult time with you.”
Ryan’s heart skipped a beat as images of living together with her flashed in his mind, but that was just wishful thinking.
“Who told you I have severe depression?” He set down his teacup and confidently met Amelia’s skeptical gaze. “I’m just a little depressed, not to the point of being severe. Why would I need you to go through this suffering with me?”
He acted natural, but Amelia didn’t believe him. Ryan often hid his difficulties from her, just like when he used to work at
the restaurant. She had caught him, and he lied, saying it was just to help a friend.
No matter what happened in Ryan’s life, he carried the
burden alone and would never involve her.
Amelia knew him well enough to understand the depths of his emotions beneath his calm exterior.
“Ryan, Eva told me about your symptoms. Don’t lie to me anymore,” Amelia said, pushing away the phone he handed her, as if remembering something.
“The doctor made a misdiagnosis. I haven’t had a chance to tell Eva yet. I didn’t expect you to show up so soon,” Ryan said, pulling out his phone and showing Amelia the number of the depression specialist.
“If you don’t believe me, call my doctor. He can’t lie to you in an unexpected situation, right?”
