Love You Like I Used To Forget It (Millie Bridge) novel Chapter 643

These thoughts left Cordelia even more stunned once she came back to her senses. She felt there was something seriously wrong with her.

How could she keep speaking up for Irvin like this? A scumbag was a scumbag. Regardless of how terribly he suffered while trying to win me back, he was still a jerk.

Seeing how utterly overwhelmed Cordelia looked, I couldn't help but laugh and say, "Don't overthink it, and don't think you've gone crazy either.

"The Irvin you see now really isn't the same man he used to be. So, it's totally normal that you think he seems like a good person, feel sorry for him, and can't help wanting to forgive him.

"As the religious teaching goes, 'To know your wrongs and correct them is the greatest virtue.' If someone truly realizes their mistakes, then it's only natural to want to forgive them," I reassured.

Cordelia couldn't help protesting when she heard this. "But he hurt you so badly before. If you forgive him so easily, doesn't that mean all the pain you experienced in the past was for nothing? And what if he turns back into his old self after you forgive him?"

Despite saying this, a part of her instinctively knew this wasn't possible. The current Irvin would unlikely ever hurt me again. Still, she couldn't keep herself from thinking like this.

This was the effect of being emotionally scarred. No matter how good Irvin was now, his past self had left deep wounds in both me and Cordelia. And wounds like this didn't just vanish.

Therefore, no matter how good we think he is now, we still couldn't bring ourselves to forgive him completely or forget the pain he had inflicted.

"All we need to do is appreciate how good he is right now. There's no need to think too far ahead, nor is there any need to keep dwelling on the past," I stated.

People just needed to live in the present. Right now, I only cared that our babies were doing well. And as long as Irvin treated them well, I would allow him to be a good father to them.
