# Chapter 568: A Memory He Can't Let Go
Hello everyone, it's me again! How are you all doing? Today I will continue to walk with you and review Chapter 568 of "The Untouchable Ex Wife." If you thought the hardest battles were physical ones, think again. This chapter places us inside a tense hospital room where one dangerous decision stands between the past and the future—and no one can agree which one is worth dying for.
The chapter opens with a heavy, helpless sigh escaping Seraphina’s lips. She stands before Stefan, her eyes filled with the weight of a fear she cannot push aside. Realizing that no amount of begging will move him, she surrenders to the hard truth and asks: *“I see you won’t change your mind, but you have to bear the risks of this, including death. Have you really thought this through?”*
But Stefan has already crossed that bridge. After everything he has endured—the pain, the hidden truths, the confusing shadows in his own memory—death no longer frightens him. His answer is simple and steady: *“I can accept that.”*
Those words are the breaking point for Seraphina. Perhaps she hears something in them—not just courage, but distance. Maybe she realizes that the man before her is willing to risk everything to uncover something he lost, and that something has nothing to do with her. Her control finally shatters. She screams at him to do whatever he wants, and then she runs out of the ward, leaving the door nearly rattling off its hinges.
In the silent aftermath, Owen, the sharp-eyed neurosurgeon, pulls up a chair beside Stefan’s bed. A teasing smile appears on his lips as he shrugs: *“I think you made her mad.”*
Stefan watches the doorway where Seraphina disappeared. A bitter smile touches his mouth. He explains that she’s just insecure—probably afraid he’ll change his mind after the surgery. And maybe she has every right to fear that. She was the one who stayed with him through the hardest, darkest times. He knows he owes her something: responsibility, marriage, a lifetime of stability and care. More than that, he believes he truly loves her. He insists the surgery won’t change that. It will only fill the blank spaces in his mind, the missing pages of his own story.
But Owen raises one eyebrow thoughtfully. As a doctor who studies brains, not just flesh and bones, he sees things Stefan cannot see. He offers a quiet observation: all her insecurity stems from low self-esteem. Maybe she believes she doesn’t deserve Stefan. Or maybe—and this is more unsettling—she knows she entered this relationship by dishonest means.
Stefan frowns. *“Not by honest means?”* The words sound foreign to him. He genuinely doesn’t understand.
Owen doesn’t push. Instead he speaks cryptically. It’s normal Stefan can’t see it now, but after the surgery, everything will come into the light. And then he will finally know why Seraphina is so terrified.
Here, the story gives us a chilling glimpse into Owen’s mind. As a neurosurgeon, he knows exactly how fragile memory can be—and more frighteningly, he knows how easy it is to control another person’s brain. He cannot help but suspect Seraphina. Her fear is too sharp, too desperate. But he keeps these dark thoughts locked away. It’s too soon to burden Stefan with such accusations.
Stefan, meanwhile, looks like a man who has already made peace with any outcome. He tells Owen to choose whatever time is suitable for the surgery. He’s ready whenever. His tone is so indifferent that Owen can’t help but chuckle.
*“Don’t act like you’ve got nothing to live for,”* Owen teases. Then his tone grows more practical. It’s a relatively minor surgery, but it shouldn’t happen immediately. Stefan is still recovering. Owen says they need to wait another ten to fourteen days. Stefan simply nods.
Silence stretches between them. Owen leans back in his chair, lost in deep thought. Then he says something that cuts through the stillness like a scalpel. He carefully considers the supposed romance between Stefan and Seraphina.
*“So, she’s your fiancee, huh? The one you loved dearly and experienced a lot with? I thought you guys were lovey-dovey, but now that I’ve seen it… you both look like friends. There’s no passion or anything indicating you both are lovers. It’s very weird.”*
Stefan defends his relationship with careful rationality. He argues that not every couple behaves romantically in public. Even if their relationship feels dull to outsiders, what they feel for each other is real.
But Owen is not convinced. He shakes his head. People in love—true love—naturally show strong emotions toward the person they cherish. He didn’t see that fire in Stefan’s eyes when Seraphina was in the room. Ironically, he saw it when Stefan was with another woman.
The chapter ends right there, on that quiet, devastating observation. Stefan doesn’t answer. The room holds its breath. And we, as readers, are left staring at the terrible question Owen has already forced into the open: if Stefan truly loved Seraphina, why did all of his passion belong to someone else?

**Reader’s Impressions & Star Rating**
This chapter was intense, quiet, and emotionally loaded. The confrontation between Stefan and Seraphina carries a deep, painful tension, but the most thrilling part is Owen’s sharp observation. He sees through everything. The shadow of memory, the manipulation of the mind, and the mystery of another woman all combine to create an unforgettable cliffhanger.

**Next Chapter Prediction**
Something tells me the coming days before surgery will be filled with hidden moves. Seraphina will not sit still and wait for Stefan to uncover the truth. She may try to delay the surgery, change Owen’s mind, or even manipulate Stefan’s emotions again. Meanwhile, the mysterious "other woman" who stirred such passion in Stefan will likely step back into the picture—and when she does, the past Stefan has been chasing may turn out to be far more dangerous than he ever imagined.
