Chapter 1088 No matter how composed and natural Garett tried to appear, Eleanor couldnât fully believe him. She knew he would do his best to conceal the truth from her Garett always took it upon himself to shoulder everything ensuring she wouldnât be affected in any way Eleanor understood him very well and knew that beneath his calm facade, he might be struggling tremendously at the moment âGarett, Hailey has already informed me about your condition. You donât need to hide it from me,â she gently confronted him.
Garett acted as if he suddenly remembered something, looking at Eleanor with a faint smile âActually the doctors misdiagnosed I didnât have a chance to tell Hailey before you both arrivedâ
To prove his words, Garett look out his phone and found the contact information of the depression specialist, offering it to Eleanor. âIf you donât believe me, you can call my doctor. He shouldnât deceive you when caught off guard, right?â
But whoâs to say if he had already communicated with the doctor before knowing she would come?
After contemplating for a moment, Eleanor pushed away the phone Garett handed her âGarett, I plan to come and see you every day Are you sure you donât want that?â This was her way of giving him an opportunity to be together again. How could Garett not want that?
âIf you come to see me, what about Bernardâ Garett trailed off, subconsciously glancing at the watch on his wrist. It hadnât been two hours yet, and he felt a slight sense of relief âIâve already discussed it with him, and he agrees to let me come and see youâ Depressed individuals donât need persuasion or warnings. They need companionship Even without speaking, just having someone by their side can make them feel slightly better.
Eleanor believed that only through this way could he find redemption, and she could find a way to resolve her deepâseated quilt Upon hearing that it was her and Bernardâs arrangement, Garettâs smile shifted from relaxed to bittersweet. âEleanor, there are already Yilia, Colter, my father, doctors, and nurses at home. There are plenty of people, you really donât need to accompany me.â
He remained upright and honest, even though he truly wished Eleanor could be by his side. However, to avoid jeopardizing their relationship, he declined.
He understood that if they were to meet daily and be together all the time, he might not be able to contro! his emotions. He worried not about Eleanor, but about himself. How could he not yearn for her when she was so close?
Her tears, hot as boiling water, hit Garettâs heart, making his eyes well up too.

âEleanor, donât worry. Iâll stay strongâ
The one thing that kept him going was Eleanor âI know youâd be devastated if anything happened to me. So, Iâll stay strongâ
It was only because of Eleanor that he could fight depression, otherwise, he would have given up long ago.
With tears in his eyes. Garett gazed at Eleanor, a faint, pure smile on his face.
âYou said youâd be with me in the afterlife. I have to wait for you to leave this world before I can follow. Iâm afraid you wouldnât find me if I left first âYouâre such a foot..â
Garett laughed again.
âIf I werenât a fool, how could I forget you?â
Those words let loose another wave of tears from Eleanorâs eyes.
