Chapter 673
Chapter 673 What Is She Hinting at?
Olive's POV
I originally thought that Cinder was about to leave, but to my surprise, after chatting with Charlie for a while, she actually decided to stay for dinner
And the atmosphere between them was off from the beginning, especially after they returned from the garden. They seemed to have an indescribable understanding as if they had reached a consensus on a certain event
I thought my guess was probably accurate, but at the moment, I couldn't quite understand it
Right now, I wonder what roles we were each playing
If Cinder and Charlie were lovers and had no emotional conflicts, why would Charlie be so determined to repair our marital relationship?
Or perhaps there wasn't such a deep bond between him and Cinder. He chose to return to his family, while Cinder was the one he abandoned
Because she got ditched, she was unwilling to accept it
And because of that, she personally came to my door, wanting to break up Charlie and me
I racked my brains to come up with the motivation for Cinder to come and see me today,
but this is all I could think of
Oh God, actually I was still a patient now, and I didn't have much energy to deal with something
like this
Just as I was feeling very troubled by this, Cinder abruptly asked me right after Charlie was out of our sight, "Is he good to you?"
"What?"
I was a bit stunned and subconsciously asked a question in return
But obviously, I heard her question loud and clear. Was she trying to find out how my husband and I got along with each other?
I shrugged with a hint of astonishment and a little annoyance and replied somewhat ambiguously after she repeated that short sentence, "He's my husband, and if he treated me badly, I don't think I would have chosen to be with him."
To be honest, as a woman, I wanted to give Cinder a hand at this moment
If she insisted on being with the current Charlie, there was no doubt that, given how Charlie cherished this family, he would definitely not allow this extramarital affair to continue, and in the end, the one who would be hurt was probably only Cinder
I was not trying to defend that man who was my husband. I just hoped that things could be back on track soon and that these emotional entanglements would not continue

What I meant was that Charlie was treating me well now, but he was so cold towards Cinder. If she could see all of this clearly, it would be best for her to choose to leave him
But Cinder seemed to not take my words to
heart. Her gaze paused for a moment, and after a few seconds of contemplation, she flashed a nonchalant smile. "If you think he treats you well, then trust your own judgment. I really hope you can be happy."
I just took this as a polite remark in an awkward situation. After all, there was no mistress who would sincerely wish her beloved man and his lawful wife happiness
However, speaking of which, it seemed that I was the only one feeling awkward at this moment
After Cinder finished saying "I really hope you can be happy," the smile on her face didn't diminish in the slightest. In fact, she quickly took my hand and continued to ask very gently "Olive, actually, rather than how Charlie 1s
treating you now, I am more interested in knowing one other thing. In your memory, what was your husband like?"
Oh... God! She clearly knew that I had lost all my past memories, yet she still insisted on asking me these meaningless things!
I felt a bit annoyed, but Cinder's gaze was so genuine like she really wanted to get something out of me
I figured she might leave after she got the answer, so I could only patiently tell her, "I don't care what my husband was like in my memories
As long as he's a decent husband now, that's all that matters to me."
I admitted that there was some hinting in my tone, no, I was almost blatantly telling her to stop trying to mess with my relationship with
my husband
Unfortunately, it seemed that this did not work
As I was giving her a hint, she was doing the same
"What if one day you find out the person in front of you isn't really the husband from your memories? Or what if he changes and becomes someone you don't even recognize? When you figure that out, won't it hurt?"
Her words sent chills down my spine. I figured she must have some deeper meaning behind it, like maybe when she said "not the husband from your memories," she meant his personality or how his attitude towards me
But Cinder's eyes told me she meant it literally: Charlie wasn't really my husband
Or rather, he wasn't the husband in my heart
Could the guy in my heart be... that man I met at the hospital?
There was this urge pushing me to ask Cinder for clarity, but unfortunately, Charlie soon came back, leaving me no chance to dive deeper into the matter with her
