A Second Chance at Forever

223 - 224

“Your sister also told me your name…
Hearing this, Lisa took her eyes off the photo and looked at George.
“Your name is Elena, and your mother gave it to you”
Lisa cracked a smile at the comer of her mouth.
So, she had a name too – Elena, it’s a pretty name,
She couldn’t help but think back to when she was a kid at the orphanage, peeking over the wall and watching other kids being held by their parents
Her smile gradually faded, tears falling uncontrollably, and the warmth within her heart was replaced by sadness and loneliness
Seeing her like this George gently handed her some tissues to wipe away her tears. Dontery ill hurt your eyes.
Lisa blinked and gave a small nod then asked again, ‘My mother..”
George gazed at her sady, Tm sorry, but Emilia sad your mom passed away when she was liitle”
Lisa kind of expected this cutcome.
Otherwise, Emilia wouldn’t have to take her abroad on the lam.
Something must have happened to her mother and sate.
She noticed that George hadn’t mentioned her father, so she couldn’t help but ask, “My father..
George interrupted her before she finished, I’m sorry, but thats all know
Cleanor didn’t push George further, but was even more interested in the information he had.
As an internationally renowned cardiologist, George had been running around for her sister, Emilia- what was the relationship between them?
George placed the frame on the bedside table and, not cing Elanor’s curious eyes, told her, “Emila. Ethan, and I have been frends for many years.. He briefly explained but didn’t mention the conflict between Ethan and her sister.
After placing the frame on the bedside table. George sat down and continued with her rehab massage.
During the massage, he told Lisa that the first few days of rehab were critical, so he came personally. A female doctor would take over, followed by rehab training.
He also told her they were by the seaside, and she could take a walk on the beach once she could walk again
Having talked for a long time, George concluded today’s massage as time passed.
As he was leaving with his medical kit, Lisa couldn’t help but ask, “When can L.. recover”
George glanced at her senously frowning. “You’ve been unconscious for so long that rehab training will take about two years”
Two years?
She was in a hurry to find Garett and Hailey. How could she wait so long?
Worried that her anxiety would affect her cooperation in the recovery process, George reassured her. 1 will try my best to shorten the time to within a
Lisa stil felt this was too long, Dr. George could you take me back to my country first?”
Although she couldn’t move, it should be doable to transport her back to her country with someone’s help.
Upon hearing this. George realized her urgent desire for recovery was due to wanting to return to her country.
He turned to Lisa with a serious expression, “Ethan wont let you go. He’s already done so much to keep Emilia’s heart close to him, theres no way he’ll let you go back to your country. You better give up or that idea as soon as possible.”
Lisa frame for a moment, almost forgetting Ethan’s existence..
Now that her heart had fused with her sister’s, Etlun would, of course, treat her as he ‘private property and wouldn’t let her go easily.
To find Garett and Haley, she would have to wait until her body recovered and then find a way to evade Ethan’s control and return home…

Chapter 224
In order to recover as soon as possible. Lisa actively cooperated with George’s treatment.
Six months later, Lisa was able to get out of bed and do some simple physical movements.
George said that as long as she kept up with her rehab, shell be able to more normally again in about another half a year.
And her eyesight, it’s gradually getting better too…
Although it’s not as clear as before, she’s already pretty content.
During this time, she’s been calling Garett and Hailey constantly.
She even tried contacting them through various means such as WhatsApp, Twitter, and email, but she never got any replies.
Ethan knew she was doing these things but he was tolerant of her actions and didn’t stopter.
However, when she mentioned wanting to go back to her home country he immediately got serious and warned her not to leave with Emilia’s heart.
Lisa didn’t bring up the topic of going back again, but she never stopped planning in her heart.
In the next hall a year, Ethan still acted like before. Occasionally, he would be down on her chest and Isten to Emilia’s heartbeat when she was asleep.
At first, Lisa was scared by his actions, but after some time, she didn’t mind it anymore.
When he was in a good mood, he would also take her to the brach for a wak.
However, most of the time, she would be left by the road side while he sat on the beach, staring at the sea in a daze.
Every time she saw Ethan like this, Lisa thought he mally loved his sister
But she didn’t know why, her sister would rather die than stay with him.
After getting familiar with him, Lisa asked him about his story with her sister a few times but Ethan kept his lips sealed
Even hearing Emilias name would make him somewhat unstable
It seemed like he couldn’t accept Emilia’s death, or maybe he felt guilty about something, to the point where he couldn’t even bear to hear her name.
This is how they continued to live together…
Until Lisa’s hair grew to the same length as Emilia’s, Ethan’s eyes changed when he looked at her.
It was as if he was looking at Emila because she had a simdar short hairstyle
Whenever Elcanar saw his eyes change, she would purposely cough to remind him to watch his behavior, and Ethan would stop staring at her.
But since some point, he started buying her the same red lang dresses that Emilia liked to wear.
When Lisa saw herself in the mirror looking more and more like Emilia, she was a be scared,
She had already been someone’s substitute once, and she couldn’t believe it was happening again, especially with her own sister this time.
With the help of a caregiver, Lisa went to the hairdresser to have edensions added and her hair curled into waves like before.
Ethan didn’t say much after seeing it, but he cut it all off while she was sleeping later that night,
Lisa was ternfied, but he just rested his chin on his hand and carelessly said, “That’s what you get for not listening to me.”
Lisa locked of him in a daze. “Ethan, have you gone crazy?”
Ethan just laughed lightly. “You’re just realizing it now?”
Lisa was speechless.
She took a deep breath, trying to communicate with him, I’m not Emila, I’m Lisa Can’t you just stop dressing me up like her?”
Ethan tilted his head slightly, seemingly considering something, then casually said. “In my eyes, you are her”
Lisa was left speechless by his comment, and her clenched fists made her want to leave even more.
Ethan seemed to see her thoughts and raised his eyebrows at her, “Since you’ve taken her heart and have woken up, just be her and stay with me forever.”
