Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me?

Chapter 501 Can’t Turn Back

When Elspeth came back out, she saw Yelena crouching on the ground. Panicked, she asked the doctor, "What happened to her?"

"I told her who the donor was, and then this happened." The doctor sighed. Guiltily, he said, "I didn't know he was important to her."

Elspeth didn't lecture the doctor. It wasn't his fault that Yelena was depressed. "I'll take over, doctor. You may leave now."

The doctor nodded and left the ladies alone. Elspeth crouched as well, and she wrapped her arm around Yelena's shoulder. "Yelena," she whispered.

Yelena said nothing. Her head remained buried in her chest, her shoulders trembling.

"I know it's hard to accept the truth."

Yelena still said nothing, but Elspeth could hear her sobbing.

"It's sad. His death is. Sorrowful. And it's not just affecting you and me. Callum, Hank… Everyone's affected." Elspeth pulled Yelena into her embrace and patted the back of her hand. "But we can't bring back the dead. Accidents happen. Nobody could have seen that coming. We need to embrace that fact. At least… At least his memories will live on in us."

"I just can't believe he's gone. And he gave me a part of himself before he left us forever. I… I can't live with that." They were no longer a couple, but still, the memories of their past remained. Max had always been a kind lad, yet that same young man left her forever—all
