I Got Married Without You

Chapter 1525 A long-awaited chance 

When Amelia fell silent, Ryan flashed a carefree smile at her.

“Do you come today because of my depression?” he asked softly.

She hesitated on how to respond, but Ryan took the initiative to change the topic, sparing her from feeling too uncomfortable.

“Yeah,” Amelia replied, lifting her teacup again, worry in her eyes as she looked at Ryan. “I heard your depression has reached a severe stage. I want to stay and go through this difficult time with you.”

Ryan’s heart skipped a beat as images of living together with her flashed in his mind, but that was just wishful thinking.

“Who told you I have severe depression?” He set down his teacup and confidently met Amelia’s skeptical gaze. “I’m just a little depressed, not to the point of being severe. Why would I need you to go through this suffering with me?”

“If you don’t believe me, call my doctor. He can’t lie to you in an unexpected situation, right?”

Who knew if he had already spoken to the doctor before knowing she would come?

Amelia furrowed her brows, pondering for a moment before reaching out and pushing away the phone Ryan offered.

“Ryan, I planned to come and keep you company every day. Are you really saying you don’t need it?”

It was like giving him a long-awaited chance to spend time together with her, how could Ryan not want that?

“If you’re here with me, then what about James…”
