“Jimmy, you’re here.”
Alyssa blinked, then smiled at him. “Thank you for coming to visit me. Have a seat.”
She gestured toward the sofa, but Jameson only wanted to sit as close as possible beside her. He wanted to hold her, embrace her, kiss her.
A dry lump formed in Jameson’s throat as he sat by the bedside. He asked, “Where are you hurt? Are you in a lot of pain? How did the accident happen?”
“It’s just some minor wounds, nothing serious.”
Alyssa’s eyes curved with a hint of a bitter smile.
“It’s just unfortunate for my limited La Voiture Noire. It’s probably scrapped.”
“It doesn’t matter. What’s a car compared to your well-being? You being unharmed is more important th
Jameson couldn’t help but reach for her hand. He held it tightly in his.
“I can get whatever car you want for you, even if there’s only one in the whole world.”
He wanted to give everything in this world to his beloved Alyssa.
Alyssa’s pupils contracted, and she hastily withdrew her hand from Jameson’s grasp.
A trace of discomfort flickered in her eyes, causing a pang of pain in Jameson’s heart.
Amid the perceived improbability of a future with Jeremy, Jameson was left bewildered by Alyssa’s apparent indifference.
Questions swirled in his mind. He wondered whether he was truly regarded as unworthy by her and if there lingered even the faintest glimmer of hope for him.
“Lyse, I …”
“Jimmy, thank you for your sincerity.”
Alyssa’s eyes reddened, and her smile held a touch of sorrow.
“I no longer wish to be involved in romantic relationships, Jimmy. Whether it’s now or in the future, I cannot reciprocate your feelings. Please don’t waste your time on me.”
Sean had left with Jonah during the day, leaving Tatiana as the sole caretaker for Alyssa in the hospital.
Even though Jonah had left his personal bodyguard, Axel couldn’t rest easy with only the two young women there.
The night grew deeper.
Axel sat shoulder to shoulder with /Tatiana on the bench in the corridor.
She had been looking after Alyssa the whole day, and she was gradually succumbing to fatigue. Her eyelids were struggling to stay open. She was truly weary..
Despite the silliness of her struggle to keep her eyelids open, her exhaustion added a tou cuteness.
In the end, fatigue got the better of Tatiana. She leaned to the side, her head resting on Axe
Axel was stunned, and he gazed tenderly at his half-sister. He dared not move.
Throughout their upbringing, Axel maintained a distant and indifferent attitude toward his half-siblings, never truly considered them part of the family.
Through the passage of time and a multitude of shared experiences, Axel’s mindset subtly and gradually shifted.
After a while, Tatiana woke up abruptly.
She straightened up in surprise, and her eyes stared vacantly into the distance. She used her hand to wipe away the drool from the corner of her mouth. T
“Why did you wake up already? Nap a little longer,” Axel chuckled. Her cute expression reminded him of
Alyssa’s childhood days.
“S-Sorry, Axel!”
Tatiana panicked. She blushed when she realized that her drool had stained Axel’s shoulder.
“I-I dirtied your shirt. I’ll wash it clean when we get home! I’m sorry!”
Axel couldn’t help but feel sorry for his youngest sister when he observed her distress.
The Taylor siblings often revolved around Alyssa, subconsciously considering her the youngest.
Little did they realize that Tatiana was the one who needed more concern as she was the youngest in the family. Yet, she was often overlooked.
“It’s okay, don’t worry about it,” Axel assured her with a gentle brotherly smile while patting his thigh.
“Come on, lie down here. It’s comfortable.”
Tatiana’s face blushed even more as she hesitated, “This… This isn’t appropriate.”
“Lyse always lay on my thigh and slept soundly in the past,” Axel said as he reminisced.
Tatiana pressed her lips together, anxiously fidgeting with her hands till they turned red.
Axel knew she couldn’t and wouldn’t do as he suggested
To Tatiana, he was just a half-brother. The fact that he considered her his sister was enough to make her content
Axel let out a sigh. He removed his overcoat and draped it over Tatiana’s shoulders, envelo figure
“Axel, I’m not cold You should wear it. Tatiane said while attempting to remove it
Axel looked at her with a gentle gaze and pressed her shoulder over his coat.
“Be good and leave it on if you truly consider me your brother.”
Tatiana no longer resisted.
She felt a surge of warmth in her heart. There were even a few traces of tears in her eyes.
Gratitude for Alyssa welled up in her heart. It was all thanks to Alyssa that she found herself embraced by the care of her brother.
At that moment, distant voices reached their ears.
“Taty, wait here. I’ll check it out.”
Axel stood up and walked toward the commotion.
When he saw Jeremy and Landon, Axel’s expression instantly froze. His handsome features quickly turned dark and chilling.
“Fuck, it’s him!”
Landon recognized Axel at a glance. He recalled the scene where this guy mercilessly beat Jeremy, and it sent shivers down his spine.
“You fucking bastard, how dare you show your face here?”
Axel’s muscles tightened, and his gaze became intense as he confronted Jeremy.
“Leave immediately before my temper flares up. Get lost!”
Jeremy lifted his pale and woeful face. His throat was catching as he spoke, “I want to see Lyse. I have something to tell her.”
“She has nothing to talk to you about. Leave now!” Axel glared fiercely.
Jeremy’s eyes were bloodshot. He took a deep breath and countered, “No. I won’t leave if I can’t see her!”
He aggressively attempted to force his way inside as he uttered those words, appearing as though he was driven by madness.
Axel aimed to halt him, but Landon, who anticipated this situation, quickly used a stun baton on Axel’s lower back.
Axel let out a groan.
Axel’s body shook intensely, and then he collapsed on the ground. He was paralyzed and unable to stand.
