Chandler said, “I don’t want to impose my fate on her. The curse was originally my own business. If I hadn’t met her, I probably would have taken a gamble and extracted the curse from my body.”
“But the Hunter family saved Tina and her mother’s lives! If it weren’t for the Hunter family, they would have lost their lives long ago. And now they are doing this. No, I will go to the Stephenson family and reason with them!” Adele said unwillingly.
“Mom!” Chandler shouted, “If you really want me to survive, then don’t go looking for Tina any more.
She doesn’t owe me anything! When she was missing and couldn’t be found, I felt that there was no meaning in living. But when she came back, I wanted to live, even until now.”
Tina is his motivation to live!
Adele’s tears fell even harder, “For one Tina, how much are you going to torment yourself?”
“It has nothing to do with Tina, this is my own choice!” he said.
“You…”
“Enough!” Colin interrupted his wife, his gaze on his son’s face, “You know, I have never interfered with your decisions because I always believed that you would make the best choice. Even when you were a child, I let you make your own decisions. But this time, your decision, are you really not going to regret it? If one day, Tina recovers her memory and regrets divorcing you, what will you do?”
“If Tina regrets and still loves me, then I will naturally be with her. But if she never regains her memory and doesn’t love me, then this is fine as it is,” Chandler said.
“But what if she regrets when you are no longer alive? Have you thought about how she will feel when she recovers her memory and regrets?” Colin said.
Chandler chuckled bitterly, but still firmly said, “Dad, I will survive!”
Colin didn’t know how to persuade his son at that moment!
In the end, the old Mr. Hunter sighed, “Such a tragic fate! Well, you can do as you wish!”
“Dad!” Adele shouted, “Are you just going to watch Chandler die?”
“What else can I do? Can I force him to have a child with
Tina?” the old Mr. Hunter said.
Adele was taken aback.
“Let’s leave it at that for now,” said the old Mr. Hunter. “Now that Chandler and Tina are like this, we can only think of other ways to remove the curse from
Chandler’s body.”
Adele and Colin glanced at each other. Adele wanted to say something, but Colin stopped her with his eyes.
After leaving their son’s ward, the old Mr. Hunter went back to the Hunter family first. Adele turned to her husband and said, you really agree with Dad’s plan? It’s so dangerous to try to remove the curse. If it were that easy to succeed, the Hunter family wouldn’t have lost so many people before!”
“What else can we do? You know Chandler’s personality. Once he makes up his mind, do you think you can change it?” Colin said.
Adele remained silent and didn’t say anything for a while. Finally, she said, “Anyway, with such a big matter as their divorce, I still need to talk to the Stephenson family!”
Colin nodded. “That’s fine!” This matter indeed required a meeting with the Stephenson family.
Soon, Hadwin and Lina received a call from the Hunter family, saying that they needed to have a serious talk about the divorce of the two children.
It was only at this moment that Hadwin and Lina learned that their daughter had already officially divorced Chandler.
After agreeing on a meeting time with the Hunter family, they came to their daughter’s room.
“You and Chandler are divorced?” Hadwin asked.
Tina was taken aback. “He told you?”
“It was Chandler’s parents who called, saying that the adults from both families should meet and discuss this matter,”
Hadwin said.
“Oh.” Tina’s eyelashes trembled slightly, and she responded.
Divorce? Although she had the divorce agreement signed by Chandler in her hand when she was about to hand it over to the lawyer to proceed with the divorce procedures, an indescribable feeling suddenly spread in her heart.
Uneasiness, fear, and reluctance!
It was as if she couldn’t bear to go through with the divorce. Was it because of the lingering emotions in her body? How much did the old her really love him?
If the old her had known that Chandler’s kindness towards her was only because their child could remove the curse from him, would she still love Chandler?
Would she still choose to marry him?
She didn’t know the answer, but in the end, she kept the divorce agreement in her hand and didn’t hand it over.
So strictly speaking, she and Chandler are not officially divorced yet.
But since the Hunter family now thinks they are already divorced, it’s fine. Anyway, in a few days, she will proceed with the divorce procedures, and they will be officially divorced then.
“Did his parents say how Chandler is doing now?” Tina couldn’t help but ask.
“Chandler is in the hospital,” Hadwin said.
Originally, they should have visited Chandler in the hospital, but after learning that their daughter had divorced him, they decided not to go to the hospital temporarily to avoid awkwardness.
Tina was stunned. He’s in the hospital?!
“Why is he in the hospital? Could it be because of his health…” Tina’s mind suddenly flashed with thoughts about the curse of the Hunter family.
Could it be related to that curse?
“The specific situation is not clear yet, but ever since you disappeared, his health has not been good,”
Lina said.
Speaking of this, she felt a pang of heartache for Chandler.
During that time, she watched the child become increasingly thin, watched him collapse stiffly from exhaustion, and watched him get injections in the hospital. But once he regained consciousness, he would pull out the needles and still want to go find Tina.
How many men in a woman’s life would care for her like this?
Meeting him was indeed fortunate!
Tina was stunned. Chandler’s health has not been good all along?
But she had no idea about it. When she woke up in the hospital and saw Chandler, he always appeared in a normal state in front of her.
“Alright, Tina, don’t think too much. Your dad and I will talk to the Hunter family and discuss the details of your divorce. Since you’re already divorced from Chandler, just live your life as you want from now on,” Lina said.
Tina felt heavy-hearted.
Can she really live a good life from now on?
Can she live the life she wants?
The next day, Hadwin and Lina went out to meet Chandler’s parents, while Tina came to the hospital alone after her parents left.
She couldn’t explain her state of mind. Clearly, she wanted to divorce him, to put an end to it.
But why couldn’t she help but want to come to the hospital to visit him when she found out he was hospitalized? Wanting to know how his health was?
He seemed fine that day! Why was he hospitalized?
Chandler’s ward was the hospital’s VIP ward.
Tina walked to the door of the ward, feeling inexplicably anxious.
What should she say when she sees him?
“Tina?” However, a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind her.
Tina turned her head abruptly, and that familiar figure came into view.
The only difference from what she had seen before was that he wasn’t wearing a suit at the moment, but a hospital gown. His slightly pale face gave him a touch of fragility.
“You’re not in the ward?” It took Tina a while to finally utter a word.
“I went to the attending physician’s office to have a talk,” Chandler said.
“Is there something wrong with your health? Is it serious?” Tina suddenly became nervous.
Chandler looked at the person in front of him. If it weren’t for her insisting on getting a divorce, her current nervousness would have made him misunderstand and think that she liked him!
No misunderstandings, and he must not indulge in his feelings because of this.
Since they were already divorced, his health should no longer concern her, so she didn’t need to worry about it, right?” Chandler said.
Tina was taken aback. Chandler’s voice sounded distant.
It was the first time she heard him speak to her in such a tone as if there was a great distance between them!
“Of course, it’s also possible that I misunderstood, and you were just asking casually, not really concerned!” Chandler’s voice continued.
“I am genuinely concerned!” Tina blurted out!
After saying this, Tina was stunned. Did she really worry about him? He approached her and treated her well for a reason, and she should hate him, shouldn’t she?
Choosing to divorce was also because of this!
But why did she still worry about him?
After hearing Tina’s words, Chandler showed a bitter smile. “Tina, don’t say these things to me anymore. Since you don’t love me, since you don’t want to be with me, then don’t say things that will make me misunderstand in the future!”
That would only make it harder for him to suppress his feelings for her, and in the end, it would only make them both more miserable!
Tina uncomfortably bit her lip. “I just don’t want there to be anything wrong with your health. After all, we have known each other for so many years, and my parents told me that during the time I was missing, you were not in good health because of looking for me.”
Chandler said calmly, “Then you can rest assured. There’s nothing wrong with my health. I just talked to the attending physician, and I should be discharged tomorrow.”
Tina breathed a sigh of relief. If he could be discharged, then everything should be fine.
“Since you’re fine, I’ll go back now,” Tina said.
Just as she turned and walked towards the elevator, she heard Chandler’s voice behind her. “Tina, if it’s not necessary in the future, don’t greet me, don’t care about me. Just treat me as a stranger, okay?”
Only if she disregarded him could he have no expectations, and only then could he properly control his emotions and continue to live!
Otherwise, he was afraid he couldn’t suppress these feelings and would end up doing something to hurt her!
