“M-Me?” Jackson stuttered, as he was visibly confused.
Shane pursed his lips. “Of course. You were the one who released her, allowing her to harm my two children and
flee. Consequently, I ordered my men to break her legs so that history wouldn't repeat itself. This time, even if she
is freed, there's no way she can run.”
“Wh-What?” Jackson stumbled backward in shock.
It's my fault! Due to my actions the last time, Shane broke her legs so that she can't escape. I'm the one
responsible for what happened!
Lowering his gaze, Jackson looked at his hand. For some strange reason, he could see them drenched in blood
despite the fact that his conscience was clear.
Suddenly, he couldn't tell if he was a doctor or a demon.
As a doctor, he was kind and helped the sick. However, his decision to let Jacqueline go resulted in the children

Am I truly a doctor? Am I really helping the sick? Why do I get the feeling that I keep hurting someone else?
With his hands shivering violently, Jackson fell into an abyss of self-doubt.
Sensing how distraught he was, Natalie gave Shane a nudge. “Shane, there's something wrong psychologically with
Dr. Baker.”
Jackson's reaction was so obvious that even a layperson like Natalie could recognize that something was amiss.
Naturally, the phenomenon wasn't lost on Shane as he narrowed his gaze. “Silas.”
“Yes!” Silas grunted from outside and came in.
“Wake Jacqueline up,” Shane ordered.
The words brought Jackson back to his senses. “Let me do it!”
When everyone turned to look at him, he broke into a depressing smile. “Given that she is drifting in and out of her
consciousness, she needs to be woken up in a specific manner or risk having her mental constitution affected.
Shane, can you wait outside and give us some space so that I can speak to her in private? Don't worry. I just want to
ask her some questions and won't free her this time. Besides, you will be outside and there's no way I can help her
flee. So please...”
He bowed deeply at Shane.
Natalie let out a sigh. “Shane, let him do it.”
When Shane saw that Natalie didn't object, he was in no place to do the same. Hence, he led Natalie and Silas out.
Upon hearing the footsteps, Jackson looked at them gratefully and cried out, “Shane, thank you.”
Shane stopped for a fleeting moment before making his way out.
As Silas closed the door, the three of them waited outside.
Back in the room, Jackson woke Jacqueline up in a professional manner.
The moment she opened her eyes, all she saw was a blur. It took a while for her vision to focus on the person
looking down on her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmStaring up at his babyface, she could see the turbulent emotions in his glistening eyes. It was filled with devotion,
disappointment, regret, and pain.
For some inexplicable reason, the sight of his emotions caused Jacqueline's heart to ache as if he had lost
something important but can't tell what it was.
Jacqueline parted her pale lips and called out to him, “Jackie.”
Jackson acknowledged with an icy grunt.
Jacqueline widened her eyes slightly. “Jackie, it's really you. Why are you here?”
The instant she woke up, she noticed that she was in her own room. The room in which she had grown up.
As a result, she was surprised to see Jackson there.
Jackson sat down by her bed. “Shane called me and told me that you were in J City. That's why I came.”
At the mere mention of Shane, Jacqueline's eyes flashed with so much fear that her already pale face ashen

“Shane, Shane's here?” she asked in a raised voice.
