she thought the caregiver had lied to her. It was only much later that she found out he had gotten into a car accident and sustained grave injuries, neatly losing his life in the pro
Horrified, she quickly asked to be led to where he was.

Into a car accident. Because of that,
According to the caregiver, he had abruptly lost consciousness while rushing to the hospital that day and ended up getting into Adeline felt a little guilty.
Truth be told, ever since they met up again, she didn’t bother treating him with any sort of country. She insisted that she had never felt any love f But now, as she saw him lying on the hospital bed looking rather frail, she felt a pang in her heart.
He had taken care of her and her parents after their accident, but the only found out about his condition when she had fully recovered.
“I’m sorry, Sullivan”
from him before.
At the end of the day, Sullivan didn’t owe her anything. She was the one
se who forcibly established their relationship all those years ago. It wasn’t surprising that he didn’t return feelings.
But after giving up on the relationship and avoiding her tragic tate, he became the one who started pursuing her. Upset about how their five–year relationship played out, she continued to bear a grudge against him, but he never took her indifference toward him to heart
Adeluar lowered her head. Her voice became a little choked
However, out of the comer of her eye, she noticed that one
r of his fingers jerked a little. Her heart leaped as she quickly called for the doctor. Soon, one came nahing into the room.
Sullivan slowly regained consciousness. By the time he could open his eyes, the doctor had left. He saw a nurse giving instructions to a young woman. When she tumed to look at him, he froze at the sight of her face. Wasn’t that Madeleine, the woman who died five years ago?
As soon as he thought of that, he recalled the invitation he had received from the Emersons and realized this was their adopted daughter, Adeline Instinctively, he frowned. He didn’t have a favorable impression of the Emersons. When he saw her approaching, he swiftly asked, “What are you doing here?” The distant tone in the familiar voice made Adeline pause. She didn’t expect him to react this way. Just as she was about to reply, she picked up on the situation
He wasn’t Sullivan–or rather, he wasn’t the same Sullivan who claimed to love her and wanted to clear all obstacles to be with her, Instead, he sounded like…the original Sullivan in the novel who despised Madeleine completely
Realizing this, Adeline schooled her expression and said, “I came to see you and also to thank you for hiring someone to look after my parents and me when we got into an accident. I’ll transfer the money back to you.”
She walked off without waiting to hear Sullivan’s response. Once she left the ward, however, she slowed down. If Sullivan had now turned back into the original Sullivan… what happened to the previous one?
Had he disappeared?
Adeline exited the hospital loolding a little despondent.
Frank and Cynthia, who were in the car waiting for her, saw her expression and thought she was upset because of Sullivan’s Injuries.
They made a few queries out of concern, but she shook her head and replied, “He’s awake, but I’m guessing he won’t have anything to do with us anymore
Frank and Cyriacouldn’t get an explanation out of her, so they decided to head home first. However, upon arriving at the Emerson residence, the driver stopped The car outside the gate instead of driving straight into the garage.
“I thank there’s someone at the gate,” he said.
All three of the tumed to take a look Thrie was indeed a scrawny–looking mancurled up by the gate. As they couldn’t see his face, Frank and Cynthia both assumed he was a beggar. Frowning, they were about to get someone to usher the man away when a thought occurred to Adeline
After stopping her parents, she got out of the car and started running toward the man. Too late to stop her, Frank and Cynthia got out to go after her, too. However, Adeline had already approachard the man to ask, “Who are you? What are you doing here?”
The man raised his head, revealing the face that Adeline had been in love with for many years. When he saw her, his eyes lit up with joy.
“Addle, I said I would make sure there would come a day when we could be together without any obstacles, I did it. From now on, I’m no longer Sullivan Carter, the ale protagorast. F’in just an ordinary man named Logan Shaw.
But this also ine ans have nothing to how. So, are you willing to make me your sugar baby again? I’ll just need room and board can even keep your bed warm for you!”
Adeline swiftly figured out what meant, Sullivan was the in Logan, a penniless man,
was the male protagonist. He had to live according to the plot, so the Sullivan who loved her had now become
smiling, she nodded and wild, “Sure, but I have high standards, I won’t keep you around if you fail to meet my requirements.” Logan eagerly nodded and promised, “I’ll do anything you want. ”
