Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 295

was already getting up, though he was coughing.Margot and Elias stopped talking, then they both turned around. “You’re awake!” said Margot. “Yes.” Callum smiled weakly.Elspeth stared at him, tears welling up in her eyes. “Callum.”Callum turned around, but his gaze was cold and aloof.Elspeth froze when she saw his gaze. “What’s wrong?”Why is he so distant? Elspeth was at a loss. “What’s wrong? Are you mad at me? I didn’t mean to—”“I’m not mad at you, Miss Lynwood. I don’t think we’re that close.” Callum covered his mouth and started coughing violently.Elspeth couldn’t believe it. She looked at Sonny, her eyes filled with confusion.Sonny looked baffled as well. “Maybe it’s a side effect. He probably lost his memories.”I don’t think so. “But he just called me Miss Lynwood. He still remembers me.” This wasn’t what Elspeth expected. She would rather Callum yell at her than just forget her entirely. She turned her attention to Callum again, still in disbelief. “Do you know who I am, Callum?”Callum nodded. “Yes.”“Do you remember our relationship, then?” Elspeth didn’t think he would forget her.

She stared at Callum silently. “Do you still love me?” she asked coolly, her voice tinged with disappointment.Callum was in a state of confusion as well. He knew this woman was his fiancée, and he could still remember everything that had happened in their relationship, but he just felt nothing for her. “No,” he answered honestly.Elspeth knew this was not his fault. He didn’t mean to forget about her, but still, the answer pained her. Elspeth took a deep breath and forced a smile. “I don’t mind. As long as you still want to be with me, we can solve everything else with time.” I’ll work my hardest to make him remember our love. As long as he wants to.Callum spoke indifferently, not unlike a robot. “Of course.” He felt nothing for her, but she was the woman he chose, and he wouldn’t abandon her just like that.Elspeth noticed the
