Chapter 330
Yusuf walked over to the porch and leaned against the handrail in a floppy way. Looking at Edmund, he said, “I don’t think you should give up on life because one woman refused to love you back. How about you give her up and move on?”
Edmund rolled his eyes at him. It was easy for Yusuf to say. If giving Chelsea up was that easy, would he be torturing himself like this?
Now, he understood how Chelsea felt all those years. She must have held out hope for a Long time.
No matter how he treated her, she felt that he would one day fall in love with her. She must have imagined a long and happy Life with him. Perhaps she even thought about bearing him a son and a daughter someday.
But how come she was able to throw all her hopes and dreams away?
Once the answer struck Edmund, he felt very remorseful. She gave up because he deeply hurt her.
“I have an idea,” Yusuf said after a moment of silence.
Edmund finally turned to look at him.
Yusuf continued, “Didn’t you think that Chelsea was playing the game of cat and mouse with you before? Why don’t you do the same thing? You can pretend that you no longer care about her and date someone else. She might get jealous and realize that her feelings for you never changed. In the end, she would agree to get back with you!”
“No, I can’t give her up!” Edmund declined without hesitation. He couldn’t let go of Chelsea, not even for a second. Yusuf sighed tiredly. “I didn’t say you should give her up for real.
Just pretend!”

“I can’t pretend!” Edmund turned down the suggestion again.
After staring at his friend, Yusuf spread out his hands and commented, “In that case, I can do nothing to help you.”
Edmund said nothing and took a long drag on his cigarette.
Chris suddenly raised his hand and said, “I also have an idea.”
His friends immediately looked at him.
Their expectant looks gave Chris the heebie-jeebies.
He cleared his throat and said, “How about you pretend that you lost your memory? You will act as if the only memories you can recollect are that of when you and Chelsea were still a couple. The doctor will advise that she stay by your side for you to recover. During this time, she might fall in Love with you again.”
Before Edmund could air his thoughts about the idea, Yusuf said with disgust, “The soap operas you binge-watch are messing with your head, pal. You are a doctor. I thought you were smart. Why did you make such a ridiculous suggestion?”
Chris tried to make Yusuf see reasons with him. “My idea isn’t ridiculous. Selective amnesia is actually a thing even though it doesn’t happen very often. You can’t teach me my job.”
“I think this idea is feasible!” Edmund chipped in before they could argue any further.
Yusuf’s mouth was agape.
Damn it! Why was this dude ready to risk everything? Yusuf pondered.
“Catch you later, guys!” Edmund threw the cigarette butt in the trash can and turned to leave.
Chris pulled him back and asked worriedly, “You aren’t planning to get into a car accident right now just to set the plan in motion, are you?”
