Chapter 233 Chapter 233 Love Has Conditions I turned to meet her eyes, noticing the flicker of uncertainty. At that moment, I knew Julian's suspicions were probably right.

Leonard hadn't sustained any serious damage to his nervous system from his injury, so there had to be something else. Most likely, it was Amelia who had manipulated the situation. She was skilled, and I had to give her that. Not only had she fooled everyone around her, but she had also managed to escape the scrutiny of the doctors.

Maybe, like she said, fate had thrown her a lifeline, giving her this chance to win over Leonard.

I repeated my question, watching her closely. "Amelia, would you ever hurt Leonard? "You remember he was poisoned by Lily before. That toxin will take three years to leave his system fully. And when he saved me, he was exposed to radiation that damaged his body." She shot to her feet, glaring at me. "Is this your way of bragging about how much he loved you? "So what? He doesn't even remember anymore." I stayed calm. "Amelia, his body can't take any more stress-physically or mentally." I didn't want to say too much or push her too far. After all, we had lived together for four y years in college, and I knew her temper well. She had always been sensitive to anything that made her feel inferior.

Sure enough, when she heard how fragile Leonard's health was, she paused, considering my words. Then she nodded seriously.

"As long as you back off and he loves me, I won't hurt him." With a cold look, she turned to leave, but I stopped her one last time.

"What if he remembers everything? What will you do then? "If he went back to being the Leonard he used to be, can you still promise not to hurt him?" She froze for a second, her back stiffening before she walked away without another word.

I sighed, realizing that Amelia was determined to keep Leonard at any cost. Her love had conditions. She couldn't tolerate anything-or anyone-threatening their relationship.

She needed Leonard to love her and only her. Even if he woke up one day and remembered everything, she would demand that he stay loyal to her alone.

But her expectations were unrealistic. If Leonard ever regained his memory, she would likely destroy him. Chopp! 233 Love The Conditions I sat there for a while, feeling drained from the confrontation. I was still on that bench when Jill found me, deep in thought.

"Where have you been? Your phone's been switched off, and Julian's been looking for everywhere." She tuggedup, urgingto move, but I felt numb.

you I had no idea what Amelia planned to do next. My mind felt like it was completely frozen-I just couldn't think of a solution.

Jill rubbed my cold hands. "Eva, how long have you been sitting here? Con, let's get back to your ward" "My ward?" "Yeah, Julian said you need to start your treatment. Remember the new drug trial? I had completely forgotten about that. Before I knew it, Jill was practically draggingback to my hospital room, the sVIP suite I had been staying in before.

I laughed bitterly, "It's like I'm living here now. Might as well put my non the door." "If it means you'll get better, I'll have a plaque made exclusively for you myself," she joked, but I shook my head. No one wanted to live in a hospital, no matter how luxurious the room was.

Julian was waiting, having already changed out of his white coat. He glanced at me, hist expression serious as always.

He glanced at my somewhat pale face and clicked his tongue in disapproval.

"Trying to speed up your journey to the afterlife?"

e Jill nudged him, but he just stareddown. "Eva, weren't you talking about repaying Jill? Well, start by cooperating with my treatment. 'If we get the data we need, consider that your good deed for this life. Maybe you'll get a better start in the next one." He handeda contract. "Sign this contract. It's for the clinical trial of the new drug. You'll need to stay in the hospital for it."

He must've seen the hesitation on my face. He then added, "Don't worry This has been tested abroad for a long time. The side effects should be manageable, and the treatment has shown. promising results."

The contract mentioned an extended stay in the hospital. I hesitated. If stayed here too long, especially now with the chaos in the family, Leonard might end up the target of everyone's frustration and blame.
