Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard) novel Chapter 422

Chapter 422 Wake Up Already 

I had no idea what Alisa and Leonard were saying to each other. But when I was wheeled out of the CT room, her expression looked grim. Leonard stood at the doorway, his emotions noticeably calmer now. 

“How is she, doctor?” 

Alisa and Leonard spoke simultaneously, causing the doctor to glance between them. He was clearly caught off guard. 

“Dr. Pope has gone to a conference and is on his way back. The patient is stable for now, but it’s only temporary. Family members need to prepare themselves mentally.” 

Alisa had been holding it together until that moment. She could no longer hold it in and immediately lost her composure. 

She shoved Leonard aside with fury in her eyes. “Get out! Eva doesn’t want to see you! If it weren’t for you, she wouldn’t be in this state! How dare you think about announcing a remarriage? Eva never agreed to it! It’s all your fault she fell ill; you’re a scumbag!” 

Leonard didn’t seem the least bit offended by her words. Instead, he scoffed. 

“Alisa, have you forgotten what Keenan did to Eva’s father? What right do you have to point fingers at me? Keenan killed her father and nearly set her up! What gives you the right to judge me when you’re the daughter of a murderer?” 

Alisa’s face flushed with anger as she tried to approach him again, but I held her back. 

“Let me handle this, Alisa.” 

I looked at Leonard, my expression devoid of emotion as I slowly sat up in the hospital bed. 

Alisa rushed over to support me but remained silent. 

“Leonard, I never said I’d remarry you. Don’t put words in my mouth. I, Eva Green, will never remarry you.” 

I didn’t know if cameras or recordings were nearby, but I needed to clarify my stance. 

Leonard paused for a moment, his intentions unreadable as he stepped closer. But the next second, everything around me went black, and I lost consciousness. 

This time, I wasn’t drifting in and out of dreams. Instead, I found myself back in college, reliving my life with Leonard. I had pursued him relentlessly, and he had kept his distance, but in the end, I captured his heart. 

When we were together, he treated me wonderfully, always putting me first. He had been a struggling student, yet he didn’t care what others thought. He kept striving to improve his situation. He had promised me happiness and a loving home. 

And he had delivered on that promise. It was just that we could never go back to that time. 

In my dream, Leonard was still that guy from college–genuine, never plotting against me or anyone else. He always spoke his mind and never resorted to behind–the–scenes manipulation. I seemed to dream of our wedding day, where he was about to slip a ring onto my finger. 

But something felt off about the ring. Hadn’t I sold it? 

Suddenly, I heard someone asking if I was willing to marry Leonard, and I hesitated. I lifted my head to look at Leonard, but his face was starting to blur. Then, someone burst into the wedding hall, shouting, “I object!”
