Five Years of Marriage to Mr. Bradford (by Koi Fish) novel Chapter 678

Chapter 678

Rebecca was in that pattern.

The doctor finally remembered her after she gave such a detailed description, as cases

Nike that were rare in his career.

“You’re…”

“Uh… his friend.”

Rebecca didn’t know how to explain her relationship with Vance, but the doctor’s face softened with understanding. “Are you two married?”

He assumed that the patient must have had a strong bond with her, as she still looked grateful after several years.

Rebecca realized the doctor had mistaken her for Anna. With the passage of time, the doctor might remember his patients vividly, but he tended to forget or mix up their family members.

For some unknown reason, she didn’t correct the doctor or deny the assumption. She simply said, “It’s great to see you again. Thank you for everything you did for him.”

“Unfortunately, we couldn’t save his legs,” the doctor sighed. “You’re truly remarkable to have stood by him through something like that.

Rebecca was stunned by the revelation.

“Rebecca!” A loud voice interrupted their conversation.

Rebecca turned around to see Gabriel approaching them.

“He loved her dishes. If it weren’t a serious situation, he wouldn’t have broken that promise.

Those small, persistent doubts had been gnawing at the back of her toind for weeks, but she’d clung to the fragile hope that he was alright.

She would rather believe he was alive and well, tucked away in some quiet corner of the world out of her reach, than keep second -guessing every tiny detail that didn’t add up.

“He asked me to keep it from you,” Gabriel sighed. “He didn’t want you to feel sad or guilty.”
