Alex’s eyes narrowed gradually as he looked at Dave. Side effecrd
Dave explained, “Clinical trials have shown that most patients suffered from abdominal pain and the duration of the pain varies from person to person.”
“Get out!” Alex shoved Dave’s hand away forcefully, causing the white pill bottle to drop to the floor with a thor
Alex bent down and picked up the still–unconscious Ellie, and then strode out of the consulting room. She had been afraid of pain since childhood; he couldn’t bear to give her such medicine.
Alex persuaded himself that there must be another way
Late at night, on the streets of downtown Yorksure, Alex, dressed in black trousers and a white shirt, leaned against the car door, smoking
His gaze was fixed on the distance, lost in the foreign night. It seemed as if he was trapped in this darkness, unable to find his
way
At this moment, his mind was filled with the ticking of the clock. His grandfather, Carlos, only had approximately three months left to live.
When the time came, no matter how things stood between him and Ellie, Ellie would have to return to the Thompson residence.
He brought Ellie to Yorksure, and Aaron set a time limit for him. In one week, Alex must take Ellie back to their home country.
Even the doctor said that the newly developed drug requires time for verification. However, Alex really didn’t have the time.
Alex slightly tilted his head back, holding back the moisture at the corners of his eyes. He gently closed his eyes to hide the redness beneath.
In just over three months, merely about a hundred days, if they weren’t married and didn’t have children, he wouldn’t have any excuse to keep Ellie at the Warren Manor.
Once Ellie returned to the Thompson residence and regained her memory, he wouldn’t have a chance anymore.
She had lived at the Warren Manor for more than ten years. He had plenty of time to keep her there, but he never did. Now, even the thought of having a little more time with her by his side seemed like a luxury.
Hearing the back door of the car open behind him, Alex snapped back to reality. “Are you awake?” he asked as he turned to see Ellie getting out of the car. Alex flicked away the half–smoked cigarette in his hand and reached out to pull her to his
side.
“Alex, how did I end up falling asleep? What did the doctor say?” Ellie asked, looking around at the unfamiliar surroundings and trying hard to recall what had happened before she dozed off.
Alex lowered his eyes to avoid Ellie’s gaze. He wrapped his arms around her and gently pressed the back of her head against his chest with one hand, preventing her from seeing his expression.
He gently coaxed her with a low voice, “Maybe you didn’t rest well last night and you’re really tired. The specialist said that you’re mentally resistant to recalling things, so relax. We’ll go again in three days.”
“Perhaps because it was our first meeting, I wasn’t fully trusting of him. Next time. I’ll do my best to cooperate, Ellie said, without the slightest doubt about what Alex told her.

“It’s still early, let me shose you around, Alex said, taking Ellie’s hand and walking along the interests. A dark bark Jordiony car followed them at a proper distance
“Wait here, and I’ll get it for you” Alex said as soon as he noted Ellie glance at the small box–mam chop where people were

Ellie watched from afar as Alex queued up to buy her ice cream In the past, she wouldn’t have even dared to deram of warts a thing. Standing tall and handsome in the queue, he was truly eye–catching
