Bedmates Soulmates novel Chapter 657

He stayed with her and adopted her last name, Taylor

Austyn pushed back his chair. “Let’s break for lunch. I have a personal matter to take care of. Let’s meet backhere in an hour

He drove towards Rindon ceneral

He had turned down the woman’s request for ameeting today, but somehow, guilt niggled at his mind

He had a feeling that she would be crushed if he didn’t show up

His phone was switched to silent made during the meeting 

He saw half a dozen missed calls from her and another unknown number 

I was now one o’clock, way past the appointed tinw

Maybe she’d given up and left

But he saw her as soon as his car turned into the hospital carpark 

He remained in his seat and watched her

It was late September now, but the weather in Hinton was still warm

She stood on the steps outside the hospital’s main entrance

She was sweating, but she didn’t move away from the spot where they’d parted last night

Austyn tapped a finger on the steering wheel

He was thrown into a panic when he woke up four years ago and realised his memory was blank 

It took him a long time, plus Gwen’s companionship, to get over the feeling of anxiety and to come to grips with reality

Now he had settled into his new life

He had a steady job

He was soon to be married

But then this woman jumped out of nowhere and claimed to be his wife

Austyn had not slept a wink last night, trying to process the bombshell news

Back then, he woke up with no ring, no wallet, no phone and no identity papers on him

He did briefly consider the possibility that he had been married before

After all, he was in his midthirties

But if he had a wife, or any family left at all, they would have been looking all over for him 

Yet, he saw nothing about a missing person who matched his description when he trawled through the news archive online

Gradually, he moved on

Maybe he was an orphan, like Gwen

But owen’s family found her and took her back

He, on the other hand, was not so lucky

After seeing a neurologist almost every werk for two years, he had been prepared to accept that he might never recover his memory

He was ready to move on to the next chapter of his life

But this woman

Could she really be his wife

Austyn found it hard to believe

But she clearly knew him

If she was lying, what w she hoping to get from him

Austyn scrolled through his contact list

He was about to call a private investigator he knew and give him Kira’s name 

Maybe the woman was hiding something

But before he could dial, he glimpsed a man approaching Kira

The man heldest a bottle of water to her 

She took it and smiled up at him 

Austyn kurted his brows when height that smile

The two of them started talking 

What Game is She Playing

Austyn was out of earshot

But the two clearly knew each other

They were standing close together

Then the man suddenly reached out and drew her into his arms

Austyn watched the scene with a stony face

Then he tossed his phone onto the dashboard and started the engine

Act Fast: Free Bonus Time is Running Out

Austyn Is A Godsend 

Me you all right 

Kisa tell light headed

Jesse repeated his question three times before Kira finally registered it

You almost fainted there,Jesse put both arms on her shoulders and examined her face. I think you are getting a heat stroke.” 

Kira blinked several times and regained her balance

She pulled out of Jesse’s amas 

You don’t look fine

Kira massaged her throbbing temples

I’m fine, really. It’s just low blood sugar. I haven’t had lunch.‘ 

Are you sure?Jesse frowned

He touched her forehead. We are literally on the doorsteps of a hospital. I think you should get yourself checked out.” 

Kira looked up when she heard the sound of an engine

But all she saw was a black sedan pulling out of the carpack 

she checked her phone

It was now more than ninety minutes past nODIL 

Austyn was not going to show 

Kira hid a bitter smille

It was hard for her to accept the way he was treating her

After having experienced how passionate his love could be, she could never go back to being just a stranger to him

I think it’s time to call it quits.Jesse scanned the plaza. ‘He’s not coming.” 

Are you sure you don’t want to see a doctor?he asked again

You are a doctor,she said. You can tell I’m fine, right?‘ 

Jesse shrugged and gave up.. 

He took Kira by the elbow and guided her to a shady spot under anelm tree

to hold me 

You need to take better care of yourself,he grumbled. Or Charlotte’s going to hold me responsible.” 

Kira said nothing

Jesse sighed 

We can’t just stay here and wait for him to show up. Whoever that patient he was visiting has already checked out. We need to be proactive here. Do you know where he’s staying?” 

What about his place of work?‘ 

Kira shook her head

Jesse sighed again, exasperated

Maybe it was time to call in a private investigator 

Rinton had close to a million people

With just the two of them, they’d been looking for Austyn forever

Mass Taylor Samantha stood up when she saw Gwen approach
