Gwen Grant looked at Miles Sterling lost in thought, fearing he might actually remember something, and hurriedly interrupted his contemplation, saying, "Okay, okay, let’s not continue this. Let’s go downstairs and eat. After dinner, how about we do a puzzle together?"

Miles Sterling said nothing, appearing deep in thought, and just followed Gwen Grant downstairs.

"I made all your favorite dishes, but I tried a new method today. See if you like it."

Miles Sterling sat down, gazing at the table full of dishes, but seemed to have no appetite, holding his chopsticks for a long time without picking up any food.

Gwen Grant poured him a bowl of soup and asked worriedly, "What’s wrong, Miles?"

Miles Sterling put down his chopsticks, stood up, walked away from the table, and said, "You go ahead and eat. I’m not hungry yet."

Gwen Grant paused, watching Miles Sterling walk into the living room and stand by the couch, looking at the kitten playing with the tassels on the couch pillows.

Gazing at the table she had carefully prepared, Gwen suddenly felt that Miles Sterling cared more for that stray kitten than for her, his wife.

Since Miles Sterling was discharged from the hospital, he hadn’t expressed a single word of gratitude towards her.

She cared for him meticulously every day, but what she received was not understanding and affection, but rather impatience.

Even though Miles Sterling doesn’t remember Vanessa Sterling, could she still not win his heart?

Gwen was unwilling to give up; this opportunity was also her last chance, and she had to grasp it well.

She believed that over time, Miles Sterling would truly fall in love with her.

She put down what she was holding, walked over to Miles Sterling, and hugged his waist from behind, her voice filled with grievance and on the verge of tears, saying, "Miles, please don’t be like this...I know you’re feeling bad, and I also hope you’ll remember soon. You’ve been so cold to me lately; it really hurts me..."

Miles Sterling listened to Gwen’s tearful plea, furrowing his brows in frustration, but inside he indeed felt somewhat guilty towards Gwen.

After a long silence, Miles Sterling said, "I’m sorry, I can’t remember anything right now. I don’t even know what we were like in the past. Everyone seems like a stranger to me; I don’t know what kind of emotions I should have towards everyone, including you."

Gwen held onto Miles tightly, saying, "I understand how you feel now. I just want to support you through this tough time. I don’t hope you’ll love me as you did before, but could you please not be so distant..."

With that, Gwen began to cry, filled with grievance.

Listening to Gwen’s sobs, Miles Sterling felt nothing but guilt.

To him, Gwen was not a deeply loved woman, but just someone who stayed and took care of him during his illness.

He felt grateful to her and didn’t want to see her sad, but Miles Sterling couldn’t relate to Gwen as a husband.

After a long silence, Miles Sterling gently removed Gwen’s hands from his waist, turned to her, and said, "How about we take a break for now? Until I regain my memory, can we just stay as friends?"

Gwen was stunned, wiping the tears from her face, and said, "Miles...are you leaving me?"

Miles took a deep breath and said, "Everything between us, I’ve only heard from you. I don’t remember having those experiences. It’s like hearing a story unrelated to me, so I can’t fully immerse myself as the protagonist of this story yet."

Gwen said urgently and painfully, "But those were indeed the things we went through! Just because you don’t remember doesn’t mean our past doesn’t exist. Why can’t you trust me?"
