Waking up with my nemesis baby novel Chapter 258

Chapter 258

Back then, when her mother and Bradley’s father divorced and

she and her mom were leaving, Bradley seemed to have said

the same thing.

What had she said back then?

She seemed to have said:

Bradley, you’re a big boy now. When you grow up, you have to

learn to accept people leaving and losing things.

Charlotte felt a pang of regret. She wondered if her words back

then had been too cruel, making the boy’s subsequent years of

growing up a bit… rough.

And even causing him to develop feelings for her that he

shouldn’t have.

“Bradley, you’re drunk.”

She tried to pry Bradley’s hand off, but failed. She could only

force a calm tone and say, “I’m not leaving you, I’m just going to

get someone who can take care of you.”

“I don’t want anyone else.”

Bradley shook his head stubbornly. His gaze was unfocused,

but he tried hard to stare at her.

Like a drowning man clinging to a piece of driftwood.

“You said you’d take care of me forever. Why… why did you go

back on your word? Charlotte, you’re a liar.”

“Bradley!”

Charlotte didn’t look into Bradley’s eyes. She turned her head

away, her own eyes turning a little red.

She took a deep breath.

“If you want me to take care of you for the rest of your life as a

sister, of course, that’s not a problem.”

“You know that’s not what I want.”

Bradley gripped her hand even tighter.

He gritted his teeth and used all his strength to sit up in bed,

closing the distance between him and Charlotte.

“I like you, I love you, Charlotte… I love you so much I’m going

crazy. Why do you keep pretending… you don’t know?”

“You’ve actually felt it for a long time, but you keep avoiding it.”

“Charlotte, do you think I’m a pervert too?”

“Or do you think… I’m dirty.”

As Bradley spoke, he somehow slid off the bed.

He was practically kneeling on the floor, his head resting

against Charlotte’s hand, which was on her lap.

“Not a day goes by that I don’t think of you. Only… when I’m

seeing patients, during surgery, can I forget you for a little

while.”

“Charlotte, I found so many people who look like you. I didn’t

mean anything by it, I just wanted to see you through them.”

Bradley cried.

His tears were scalding hot, falling on Charlotte’s hand, then

soaking through the pajama pants on her lap.

“I know this is wrong, I know it’s bad, but if I didn’t do this… I

would’ve gone crazy long ago.”

“Charlotte… Charlotte, could you really bear to watch me slowly

go insane?”

Charlotte froze completely, as if struck by lightning, her mind a

total blank.

Bradley’s words grew heavier and more desperate with each

sentence.

Like dull knives, repeatedly slicing into her heart.

The feelings she had always tried to ignore, to escape, were

bloodily dissected by him in the most humble, most painful way,

and laid bare before her.

“I know it’s wrong… I know it’s bad…”

Bradley’s voice was muffled against her lap, filled with endless

pain and self–loathing.

“But I can’t control it. From the day you left home, I couldn’t

stop thinking about you, to the point where my heart ached…”

“I looked for them only because I missed you so much… I

wanted to see eyes that looked like yours, hear a voice that

sounded like yours… Even if it was just a little bit similar, it let

me breathe. Charlotte, I never touched them, not a single one. I

just… missed you so much…”

He choked on his sobs, his shoulders trembling slightly from
