Chapter 1679

Nalani finally grasped how terribly misguided her previous actions had been. The age gap between herself and Elwood stretched across ten years. So, when Elwood and Carola had been together, Nalani had still been quite young.

When Tamara later orchestrated the psychological manipulation to erase Elwood’s memories of Carola, Nalani hadn’t done anything, but she had agreed to let it happen. In every sense that mattered, she had been Tamara’s accomplice.

Later, when she fell in love and faced opposition from Tamara, who adamantly forbade their relationship and demanded a breakup, Nalani resolutely chose to stand by her husband. Back then, wasn’t Tamara also doing what she thought was best for her? And didn’t she detest such overprotective actions?

Therefore.

Nalani believed that Tamara could no longer meddle in things as she used to. As time went by, Elwood was bound to gradually remember his past. Nalani could only hope that when the fog lifted and he finally remembered, he would…

She caught herself. No use thinking about that now. Whatever was meant to happen would unfold in its own time.

Without another word, she rose to her feet, ready to leave. The source of th?s content is

But just then, Tamara’s phone buzzed on the coffee table, slicing through the silence. Nalani’s gaze flicked toward the screen. The caller was Dr. Brooks.

A flicker of curiosity lit her eyes, and she stopped. After a brief pause, she sank back onto the sofa.
