Shane sniggered, “I sure hope that's the case.”

“Don't worry. I won't do anything foolish and end up disappointing my parents. Therefore, Shane, thank you for your

concern and the fact that you came here because you were worried that I would kill myself.” Looking at Shane

earnestly, Jackson expressed his gratitude.

A grim expression descended upon Shane's face. “You're overthinking it. I wasn't concerned about you and didn't

come all this way for your sake.”

“Oh? In that case, are you here for a stroll?” Jackson teased.

Shane snorted, “I was just passing by.”

Jackson chuckled in glee. “All right, all right. Passing by it is.”

There was no way he was going to deflate his friend's ego.

After giving him the side-eye, Shane did not say anything further.

A while later, something occurred to Jackson, causing him to turn toward Shane. “By the way, are we still friends?”

Shane furrowed his brows. “No.”

Upon hearing the answer, the hope on Jackson's face gradually dissipated. With a darkening gaze, he lowered his

head and smiled wryly. “Fine. I thought that you have forgiven me, but it looks like I have gotten ahead of myself.”

Shane pursed his lips. “We may no longer be best friends, but I don't mind treating you as an ordinary pal.”

As the spark in his eye was reignited, Jackson broke into a vibrant smile. “That's wonderful.”

Even though his status was lowered, Jackson was willing to accept it as the price to pay for betraying Shane.

In fact, he felt satisfied and was more than happy to do so.

Amidst their chat, the door to the makeup room swung open. As the cosmetologist stepped out, she removed her

mask and nodded at Jackson. “Dr. Baker, I'm done. You can head toward the furnace and wait there.”

“Thank you.” Jackson nodded.

Subsequently, he, together with Shane and Silas, proceeded to the furnace.

Soon, Jacqueline was pushed out in a gorgeous wedding gown. Given how exquisite her makeup was, one couldn't

help but think that she was asleep if one was unaware of her death.

Jackson didn't approach her. Instead, he stood where he was together with Shane as they watch the staff place her

body into the furnace.

Under normal circumstances, corpses were not allowed to be wearing any clothes or jewelry during the cremation

process.

However, exceptions were made for the wealthy. After all, one just needed to pay for the cleanup once the

cremation was complete.

Just like that, the doors to the furnace were shut right after Jacqueline was wheeled inside.

The next second, the staff pushed a button.

When Jackson saw an inferno ignite within the furnace, his eyes began to moisten.

As for Shane, he gave Jacqueline an expressionless stare as he watch her body being incinerated. Instead of the

feelings reserved for a sister or an enemy, he felt as if she was just a toy doll that wasn't worthy of his feelings.

“Shane, do you know that I was there when Jacqueline was born?” Jackson remarked suddenly.

Shane cocked a brow. “You saw her being born?”

I wasn't aware of that.

Jackson nodded. “Yes, I was four that year. When I was playing in the hospital one day, I saw Jacqueline's mom

being wheeled into the delivery room. Coincidentally, the doctor who was responsible for her caesarian operation

was off duty. Hence, my dad had to step in and take over the operation instead. As for me, I snuck in out of curiosity

and hid inside the room where I watched Jacqueline being delivered.”

At that moment, Jackson paused to let his emotions sink in.

A few minutes later, he took a deep breath and continued, “The reason I have such strong feelings for her is that I

watched her being born. To me, she's just different, for it was the first time I witness the birth of life. The reason I

chose to walk in my dad's footsteps to become a doctor was also because of her, for she made me understand the

beauty of life and medicine.”

“Unfortunately, you ended up witnessing a demon being born.” Shane didn't mince his words at all.
