My Love Until the Last Goodbye (Mary and Maximus) novel Chapter 839

“What happens next?” Marcus asked seriously.

Technically, he was the only person who had been around Peter at that time. He remembered that dinner vividly, but one thing was clear—Peter back then was nothing like the man he had become.

The Peter he remembered was a first-class womanizer, the kind of guy who could walk into a bar alone and leave with two or three women. He woke up next to a different woman—or women—every morning, drank heavily, never took things seriously, and prioritized money above all else.

The life he had chosen in recent years was nothing like the one he had lived back then.

“Dr. Wagner, can we see him?” Celeste asked, her voice full of concern.

“Mrs. Palmer, I know your husband was very agitated earlier, and I understand your worry. But I want to reassure you—no matter what he said or did, as he stabilizes, we’ll be able to talk to him. However, at this moment, the only person he feels comfortable with or wants to speak to is Mr. Bartz.”

“What?” Everyone turned to Marcus, who looked just as bewildered as they did.

“Mr. Bartz, I know this is surprising to hear, but you have to remember what I just told you—Mr. Palmer believes he’s 27 years old. I haven’t told him anything yet because this is a delicate matter, and we need to break the news to him carefully.”

“So, what do you recommend we do?” Celeste asked, her face filled with worry.

“I believe the best course of action is for Mr. Bartz to go in and try to explain the situation to him.”

“What the hell are you saying?” Maximus snapped, visibly frustrated.

“Uncle, we all knew something like this could happen. We need to stay calm and deal with it properly,” Alden said, trying to mediate the situation. “Dr. Wagner, can you tell us if this memory loss is temporary or permanent?”
