Second Marriage to Mr. Rich
Chapter 163

Gregory's suit and shirt were all dirty. While Gregory returned to his dorm to change, Angeline bought medicine and band-aids.

When Gregory came downstairs, Angeline pulled him to sit on a bench and started treating his wounds.

Finally, Gregory couldn't hold back.

"That guy was talking nonsense. Don't take it to heart. I don't believe you would drug someone. But... Did Ned really post your photos?"

"Yes," Angeline responded as she focused on tending to the wound.

Gregory clenched his fist.

"I'm sorry."

"It's not your fault," Angeline said with a light laugh.

"You don't need to feel sorry."

"What exactly happened between you and Ned?"

Gregory looked at Angeline.

"Don't mind me asking. I grew up abroad and only connected with Ned's family five years ago. So I'm not clear about your situation. I heard some really confusing stories." "It's nothing much," Angeline said while dabbing at Gregory's cuts with iodine.

"I accidentally saved Ned when he was kidnapped as a child, and he took me back to the Fletcher family. Later, we got together. Then, on his 22nd birthday, we went to get a marriage certificate. Right after that, there was a car accident. He lost his memory, and I became comatose.

"After Ned lost his memory, he fell in love with someone else. When I woke up, I tried to make him remember our past for two years. Then, he thought I drugged him, so he posted my photos. I transferred to Cloudsville College, and the rest is history."

"So..."

Gregory gripped Angeline's wrist.

"Is the child really Ned's? You didn't have a miscarriage back then?"

Gregory saw Angeline's gaze fall on his hand and quickly let go.

"Sorry."

"The girl isn't Ned's. She's simply mine," Angeline said as she applied a band-aid on Gregory.

"Angeline... Would you forgive my cousin and reconcile with him if he regains his memories and regrets it?"

Gregory seemed anxious.

"I feel like Ned is regaining his memories. I can sense it! His feelings for you... are different, even though he hasn't remembered the past yet."

"If you were me, and Ned caused your foster mother's death, protected the culprit who made your sister jump off a building, and then came back to you after regaining his memory, would you be with him?" Angeline asked Gregory with a forced smile.

Gregory's lips pressed tightly together.

"Then... Do you regret being with Ned?"

"Ned was a salvation for the old version of me. He pulled me from the gutter, from self-pity, and made me resilient," Angeline said ambiguously.

Yet, she remembered Ned as the person who pushed her back into the gutter, trampled on her dignity, tormented her spirit, and hurt her family. With the same hands that pulled her into the light, he pushed her into a more profound abyss.

She wondered how she would not have any regrets or hatred toward him.

Angeline packed everything into a plastic bag.

"Let's go. Professor Dickson is waiting for us in the auditorium."

James chatted and laughed with some school leaders and well-known scientific personalities in the auditorium. He waved at Angeline and Gregory as soon as he saw them. "Angeline, Gregory, come here!"

James was taken aback when he saw the band-aid on Gregory's face.

"I just stumbled while walking. Angeline has taken care of it," Gregory said with a smile.
