Crawling Back To Her Series Redemption and Refuse

Book3 Chapter10.

Jessica's Epilogue When I got the call from the police, I had just finished fixing a leak in the kitchen. I thought it was Ethan coming back, asking me to pick him up, but the officer said he was in critical condition.

It was my second time going to Maplewood. Detective Parker picked me up, and on the way, he told me that Ethan had regained his memory. He remembered his real name and his fiancée, but his fiancée had passed away due to illness, and he was in a lot of pain.

Tears immediately welled up in my eyes. "So, does he want to join her?"

Detective Parker shook his head. "Sienna wouldn't have allowed that.

He promised her he'd live on."

"This was an accident. He got hit by a car while saving a little girl."

I wiped my tears, too choked up to speak. "How is he?"

Detective Parker looked out the window, silent. It wasn't until I saw the doctor that I understood why. The doctor said, "The patient has no will to live. His family should talk to him as much as possible."

Seeing Ethan lying there, I was at a loss. Al I could do was call his name. "Ethan, our restaurant is just starting to take off. We just got married. Please, wake up."
