Jonathan frowned and cut me off, "Listen to the doctor. Don't make decisions on your own."
The doctor nodded thoughtfully. "I'll prescribe some painkillers for Ms. Sawyer. It's hard to say for sure. Sometimes it might suddenly improve one day, but it could also be a lingering, on-and-off headache.
"You could get a more detailed exam, but I don't expect the results to change much."
"So, you're saying the pain might never fully go away?"
Jonathan's expression stayed calm, but the cold edge in his voice made the whole room tense.
The doctor's tone immediately grew cautious. "Since we haven't found a clear cause yet, there's no targeted treatment. The best we can do now is keep monitoring."
After a brief thought, he added, "But Ms. Sawyer seems stable, and it's not threatening her health. She should rest well for now. We'll keep trying to find the cause."
After the doctor left, it was just Jonathan and me in the room.
I was relieved they'd only been examining my head, and no one maliced the scar at my wits,
That scat was from my suicide attempt. It was my shamir.
Soe Jonathan didn’t believe me, there yoês no reason to show him or let him know.

After a long pause, Jonathan finally spoke, “be seed you twice,”
That “he” was Frederick
Counting it, he had saved my lite twice.
“yes, I’m grateful to him.” I kept my expression blank,
Then suddenly, Jonathan grabbed my chin, his fingertip pressing gently at the ect of my mouth. “Deskles gratitude, do you feel anything else for him?”
Instinctively frowned. “What kind of feelings could I possibly have for him?
A sharp sting blossomed on my skin. His voice was low and cold,
“Don’t forget, you’re still my wife”
“When yourzemessing around with alicia, de you even remember I’m your wife?” I shot back without heshatter
His eyes deepened with feeling, swirling with emotions that held a touch of sadness.
“Elise, how many times do Llove to tell you? There’s nothing between me and her ‘
s that so? Because your words and actions don’t matchat all.”
I met his gaze fimnly. “No matter how many times you say there’s nothing with her, your actions show you clearly favor ber It Alicia means so much to you, if your feelings for her are exclusive, then why don’t you just dinner ime!
“Don’t worry. I won’t hold you burk if you dgn the papers! I’ll let you go back to Alicia.
