Chapter 1692 Dilemma
Joyce had always thought of Stanley as a cold and heartless devil. But beneath his
indifferent temperament, she saw how emotional he could be toward her.
Of course, this was her current impression of Stanley.
It could also be possible Stanley was deliberately acting in front of her.
However, she could not deny the current Stanley was attractive and charming.
She now dreamt from time to time, seeing fragments of memories. Perhaps, she was
gradually being drawn to him, resulting in her subconsciously wanting to recall their
shared memories.
In short, she was caught in a dilemma.
On the one hand, she did not want to regain her memory and return to her past self - the
miserable Joyce.
On the other hand, she was drawn to him and was curious about their past.
She did not know what to do. Should she let her memory recover naturally, or should she
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtleave Stanley's side soonest so as not to be influenced by him and run into the danger of
regaining her memory?
However, it was impossible to leave Stanley.
After all the trouble he went through to catch her, Stanley would never allow her to leave.
Unless Stanley gave up his revenge on her and her family and allowed them to leave,
otherwise, she had no way to escape.
The consequence of being unable to leave might be her falling in love with him and
regaining her memories, turning back into the sorrowful Joyce from before.
Joyce had always thought of Stanley as a cold and heartless devil. But beneath his
indifferent temperament, she saw how emotional he could be toward her.
At the thought of that, Joyce bit her lower lip tightly. “Nat, do you think Stanley is being
nice to me on purpose? He wants me to fall in love with him again and abandon me once I
regain my memory, causing me even more pain.”
Upon further thought, that did not seem entirely impossible.
After all, Joyce did not believe Stanley was kind to her because he was in love with her.
The greatest possibility was he was deliberately trying to win her over, only to hurt her
deeply once again.
If that was truly the case...
At that thought, Joyce shivered, her face turning pale.
If that were the case, it would be another trip to hell for her.
When that time came, she did not know if she would have the will to live.
Upon hearing Joyce's words, Natalie immediately shook her head. “No, Joyce, don't
overthink. Stanley won't do that.”
“Nat, how can you be so sure?” Joyce could tell Natalie's tone was certain.
She sounded so convinced that Stanley would never treat her like that.
Natalie lowered her eyelids, seemingly hesitating about something. After a while, she
seemed to have figured it out and sighed, saying, “Actually... you just revealed the answer.
You said earlier you heard Stanley talking on the phone, mentioning that he loves you.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThat statement is true!” On the other end of the call, Joyce was stunned. Her grip on the
phone suddenly loosened, almost causing it to slip from her hand.
What did Nat say? She said it was true that Stanley loved her. How could this be possible?
Joyce's body trembled slightly, clearly having trouble accepting this reality.
“Nat, do you know what you're saying?” Joyce bit her lip. “Are you saying Stanley
genuinely loves me?”
Natalie acknowledged, “Yes, Stanley has fallen in love with you.”
“This can't be!” Joyce suddenly straightened her back, raising her voice. “Nat, we're best
friends. Why are you lying to me?”
Hearing the agitation in her voice, Natalie sighed and comforted her, “Joyce, calm down
first. I know my words have shocked you, but it's the truth. Stanley's in love with you.”
“Nat, you're still lying to me!” Joyce did not know how to react. “I have no memories of
Stanley. My understanding of him comes from what you all have told me. You told me how
much Stanley dislikes and loathes me and that he'll never accept my feelings and want
me to bear his child. I believed all of that with firm conviction. But now you're telling me
he doesn't hate me and that he loves me. Isn't that ridiculous?”
