Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1704 âYou didnât lose your memory. During our marriage, you frequently contacted your ex- girlfriend, and you relied on her and trusted her. She was the reason that we got divorced. Because you had a mental disorder, she took the opportunity when she was treating you to tamper with the memory in your mind.
All you remembered was the unpleasant things between us, and you deleted the good times we had like a computer. It was a very tough time for me. Later, we divorced and got back together, but not long after, you ended up like thisâ¦â
Shaun was so shocked that he remained silent for a long time.
The complexity of the past probably caught him off guard.
He had simply listened to Rodney talk about the past, but he did not know that the reason for the divorce was so complicated.
Furthermore, he could tell that Cathy somewhat resented him when she recounted the story.
âCathy⦠Did I used to make you very tired?â It seemed like he was finally aware of this problem.
âIt would be a lie if I said no.â
Catherineâs voice was filled with bitterness. âYour memory may never be restored. Youâll have a new life, and you shouldnât be responsible for the past. Shaun, perhaps you relying on me and wanting to sleep with me is like a baby bird depending on its mother. At the same time, Iâm the first young woman youâve come in contact with, so itâs normal for you to have your needs when youâre with me. Itâs just an instinctive reaction of your body.â
âIâm the childrenâs father. Of course I have to take responsibility,â Shaun hurriedly said.
âOf course you do, but only for the children. You can teach them how to read, write, and play. You can pay for their tuition fees and buy clothes for them. You can fulfill your duty as a father.â
Catherine said softly, â I hope you can go to work and expose yourself. That way, you can make friends and meet more women. Maybe one day, youâll understand what your feelings for me are now.
Remember, I donât need you to take responsibility for me. Weâre divorced, so no one is responsible for the other.â
Then, she turned and left.
Although she felt depressed and in pain, she felt inexplicably relaxed.
It seemed like the uncertainty and fear she felt in the past few days had been relieved.
Shaun stared at her back and suddenly said in a low voice, âCathy, you said all that because you donât want to be with me anymore, right?â
â Shaun, Iâm scared that if I get together with you and finally see a ray of hope, youâll forget me again.
Itâs because youâve never given me a sense of security. I care about you, but Iâm always the one being left behind. Thatâs how you used to be, and now, you donât even know what love is. How will I dare to entrust my future to you?â
Once Catherine finished speaking, she went downstairs to look for the children.
Shaun stood rooted to the ground for a long time before entering the other bedroom like a robot.
Then, he sat on the bed.
When he thought about what Catherine said, his heart hurt like it was whipped.
However, he did not blame Cathy. He did not blame her at all.
In the end, the old him was to blame for being too useless.
After all, he could not even protect his woman. Since something went wrong with his brain time and time again, he really could not give Cathy happiness.
He wanted to be a powerful man. He wanted to protect Cathy.
His dark eyes flashed with resolute determination.
