Broken Memories, Intertwined Hearts novel Chapter 155

"Ines, there's no such thing as endless passion," Ethan laughed. "Every marriage becomes mundane, and it's the mundane ones that stand the test of time."

Ines nodded and said, "Lately, I've been feeling very restless inside. I suddenly feel like an idiot. Each day is just another day, why not just take it easy."

"You're doing great, Izzy," although she hadn't been back in A City long, she'd been through a lot. The uncovering of unknown truths, baseless accusations, even her once despised relative falling ill with an incurable disease. Each was a significant challenge.

"Hmm, I'll try harder."

Ethan really admired her spirit of self-encouragement. It seemed like nothing could knock her down.

The following day, Ines got a call from Silas when she woke up. He said that Emma was coming home and wanted to invite her and Ethan over for dinner.

Ines frowned, she knew this was Silas' idea.

Seeing that Ines was silent, Silas continued, "Ms Ines, Mr Galeana's treatment is pretty risky. If anything goes wrong, he might not make it back. Please consider it as his last wish. He's been waiting for this day for a long time."

The expert that Ethan recommended had arrived in A City. After examining Hunter, he suggested that Hunter should go abroad for treatment. Hunter had agreed.

Ines pursed her lips without directly refusing. "I'll let you know by noon."

After hanging up, Ines looked at Ethan with frustration and went to help him with his tie. Ethan lowered his head to cooperate with her. It was Ines' first time doing this, but she did it smoothly. In a while, a beautiful tie was ready.

"What happened? Didn't you say last night that you've come to realize you need to stay calm and face everything? What did Silas say that upset you so much?"

"These people are paving the road to hell with good intentions. I just eased up a bit, and he's asking me to come home for dinner because Emma's coming home. What's it to me?" Ines was indignant.

"You didn't refuse, did you?"

"I didn't want to upset Hunter anymore."

"Izzy, we're just going over for dinner. I'll go with you if you want. If not, that's okay too."

Ines made up her mind, recalling Silas' words. "Let's go then." Hunter was due for his second treatment in a few days, she wanted to check on his condition.

"Okay, I'll pick you up after work."

Ines called Silas back. He was thrilled and quickly told Hunter, "Mr Galeana, Ms Ines agreed. She said she'll come over for dinner with Ethan."

Hunter's eyes flickered with happiness, but he didn't show it. Silas knew Hunter had been waiting for this day for a long time.
