My Love Until the Last Goodbye by Alut

Chapter 0075

Fred left the mansion fuming, but not before reminding Maximus that Mary needed to be seen at the hospital. If not, he would have no choice but to inform Catherine of everything.

Once Fred was gone, Maximus approached Mary, who was sitting quietly in the garden, still trying in vain to recover her lost memories. Her mind felt like a puzzle missing critical pieces, her memory frozen at the day after their wedding.

“Mary, how are you feeling?” he asked cautiously.

“Do you want me to help you to your room?”

“I think I can manage. I don’t want to trouble you.”
