Return, My Love: Wooing the Neglected Ex-Wife

Chapter 1093:

The medical team was puzzled; they couldn’t pinpoint the issue, but Rickey remained unresponsive.

The following morning, Rickey’s father arrived from their home. “Aurora, you should head home to get some rest. I’ll take care of him here.”

“Alright.”

Aurora left the hospital, yet Emma’s words echoed in her mind, fueling her disquiet. She felt compelled to return to the ward.

The door to the ward was shut, and she caught a glimpse of Rickey’s father passing by. Just as she was about to enter, she spotted Rickey sitting up in bed.

She paused in astonishment, almost forgetting to step inside.

His father appeared unfazed, almost as though he had anticipated this moment.

“Rickey, how long do you intend to keep this act going? You can’t just stay in bed indefinitely, can you?”

Rickey maintained a stoic expression as he took the water his father offered him. “If it means she stays, I’m willing to pretend as long as I have to.”

Rickey’s father exhaled deeply, remembering how he had hit himself in frustration outside the emergency room, upset with himself for not being a better guide for his son.

Yet, he had only this one son, and he knew that not indulging him might lead to even more rash actions.

“Do you realize how much worry you’ve caused Aurora these last few days?” He attempted to reason with him. “Consider it. Aurora has her own life to lead. You shouldn’t exploit her concern to keep her tied to you.”

Rickey looked up, his expression growing darker. “Are you suggesting I’m being immature?”

“You are acting quite immaturely, yes.”

“Immature is your opinion, but it doesn’t bother me. I’m willing to do whatever it takes to keep her close.”

At that moment, the door swung open with a bang.

Both turned to see Aurora standing in the doorway, her cheeks marked by tears.

Seeing her, Rickey felt a surge of panic, his legs shaky, but he attempted to approach her, wanting to embrace her.noveldrama

“Aurora, please let me explain!”

But as he stepped out of bed, his legs gave way, and he fell into his father’s arms.

Aurora stepped back, her hand brushing away her tears. “I’ve heard enough. There’s no need for explanations.”

She continued to wipe her tears. “Do you want to know why I chose Dunn over you?”

Rickey’s expression changed to one of alarm, his eyebrows knitting together, a look of dread spreading across his face. Despite anticipating the pain her words might cause, he needed to hear them.

He acknowledged the blame was his.

He had caused the mess.

There was simply no escaping it.

Love often drove people to do stupid things.
