My Fiancée Hates Me novel Chapter 104

I fell into a deep sleep. During that time, I slowly regained bits and pieces of my memories of my second life. My memories seemed to play back as if I were flipping through the pages of a book. The contents were filled with sad as well as happy memories. Those were exactly the memories I was longing to remember.

They soon led up the I woke up in the hospital after the bookcase fell on me and saw Garett. I saw the face of true relief on Garett's face, yet the bitter memory of me witnessing the desecration of Garett's dead body popping into my mind up all of a sudden, released all of my pent-up aggression onto Garett.

I ended up lashing at him and calling him a fake and imposter...

I hated myself for saying such hurtful words to him.

Garett had been struggling with being called an imposter his whole life because of his origins. When I said those things, I was just rubbing salt on his wounds. Even after all of that, he still looked genuinely more concerned for my wellbeing despite all of my screaming at him.

When I woke up, I saw that very same face of relief on Garett's barren face. His face was unhidden by his glasses and revealed his tear-stricken face. It was a first time in both lives that I had seen such a face covered in tears.

"...Arielle, you are finally awake," Garett said.

I felt my hands being gripped when he said that.

"Garett?" I said in surprise as I took my hand back.

"Are you in any pain or discomfort right now?" Garett asked.

"...Not necessarily," I answered.

"Good...Now, I am going to scold you," Garett said as he took in a deep breath.

"Scold?"

"You are a fool, Arielle Maddox! How could you take a suspicious drug and forego the directions on the prescription? Do you know what the people around you went through to find you a Doctor who could help you? Why is it that you must become a regular guest as a patient? Are you a masochist? Do you like hurting yourself so often? Why don't you think of the people around you for once, you self-sacrificial girl!" Garett said in one breath.

I was surprised to have been nagged like this for the first time in my life.

"...I'm sorry," I said weakly.

"As you should be!" Garett said.

"...Why are you here?" I asked.

"Charlotte Castile said that you had hurt yourself because of me and that I needed to come over to apologize to you. When I came over to see you, everyone was panicking because you were vomiting blood from something you drank. The Prince told me that you drank a memory enhancing drug but was unsure of the contents. I had read some articles on the base plant used for the drug. It had been illegal for some time, so research on it was banned until now. Thankfully, the base plant had not changed, and so we were able to treat your symptoms rather swiftly. If it had been any longer, it could have been fatal," Garett explained.

"Thank you for saving me," I said as I tried sitting up.

Garett said that he hated me...Does he still feel that way now? If it was a lie, why did he say such a thing?

"...I hate it," Garett said.

"Hate?"

"I hate how you are always hurting yourself for that Prince. Over and over again, you hurt yourself and end up in a sorry state like this. One day, you are going to end up dead! Is that man worth dying for?" Garett asked.

I did end up dying already. This is my second life, but it seems almost as wretched as the first one.

"...Yes," I answered.
