Chapter 148
Joseph’s suit and shirt were all dirty.
Audrey bought some medicine and band–aids when he returned to the dormitory to change.
When Joseph came downstairs, Audrey pulled him to sit on a bench and treated his wounds.
Joseph spoke up, “That person was just talking nonsense; don’t take it to heart. I don’t believe you’d drug someone and take advantage of them! But… did Nathan really post your picture?”
“Yeah,” Audrey replied and focused on treating the wound.
Joseph clenched his fists. “I’m sorry!”
“It’s not your fault.” Audrey chuckled softly. “You don’t need to feel sorry.”
“Actually… What’s the situation between you and Nathan?”
Joseph widened his eyes and looked at Audrey. “Don’t mind me. I grew up abroad and only

“It’s nothing much.”
Audrey used a cotton swab dipped in iodine to clean the wounds on Joseph’s lip and chin.
“When I was a child, I accidentally saved Nathan, who was kidnapped. He then took me back to the Franklin family, and later, we got together.
“Then… on his 22nd birthday, he took me to register our marriage. But just after we registered, he had an accident and lost his memory while I became a vegetable! After Nathan lost his memory, he fell in love with someone else.
“When I woke up, I tried to make him remember our past, but he thought I had drugged him and posted my picture. Then, I came to Cloudmill University, and you know the rest…”
“So…” Joseph grabbed Audrey’s wrist. “Is the child really Nathan’s? You didn’t have an abortion back

Seeing Audrey’s gaze fall on his hand, Joseph quickly let her go. “I’m sorry.”
“The child isn’t Nathan’s, just mine…” Audrey took out a band–aid and helped Joseph put it on.
“Audrey… if, I mean if, Nathan remembers and regrets his actions, will you forgive him and reconcile with him?” Joseph sounded anxious.
“I feel like Nathan might be starting to regain his memory! I can sense it! His feelings for you… They’re different! Even if he hasn’t remembered the past yet.”
“If you were me, and Nathan had killed your foster mother and covered up for the culprit who drove would you you, my sister to jump off the building, and then he regained his memory and came to find.

Joseph pursed his lips. “So… Do you regret being with him now?”

“Nathan was redemption for the old me. He turned me from a person wallowing in self–pity in the gutter into a resilient one,” Audrey replied.
Audrey uttered these words that seemed both affirming and negating.
However, it was precisely this person who ruthlessly pushed her back into the gutter, trampled on her dignity, tormented her spirit, and hurt her loved ones.
