At that moment, a slender figure approached from the ward, waving at Jessie. As the figure got closer, it turned out to be Melissa.

She walked up to the bodyguard and said, "This is Miss Jessie Green, okay? From now on, allow her in any time she comes over. Mr. Waston wouldn't like it if he learned that the most important person in his life wasn't allowed to see him."

Instantly, the bodyguard nodded in an understanding manner and got out of the way for Jessie.

As she walked past the bodyguard, Melissa approached Jessie and said in a low voice, “He is awake now but still very weak. You should go and see him."

Hearing this, Jessie pursed her lips and nodded slowly. She had come in a hurry without considering anything else.

But now that she was in the hospital and had been permitted to see him, her legs became weak.

All the time that she had spent loving and hating him with every cell in her body, it never really occurred to her that Albert wasn't immortal. A sharp blade was enough to end his life and separate them forever, robbing her of the chance to even hate him.

Holding Jessie's hand gently, Melissa continued, "On the other hand, Jeslyn is in a very bad condition. She keeps having nightmares due to what happened and is emotionally wrecked."

Melissa paused for a moment, lowered her head, and continued as quietly as she could, saying, "From what I've learned, that deranged Axell, believing that you're Jeslyn's mother, took her, locked her in a dark room, and kept yelling at her to tell him if she was truly yours and Mr. Waston's child."

Jessie swallowed hard and muttered weakly, "Where's she now?"

Melissa pursed her lips for a moment and then replied, "She's now receiving psychological treatment and we've been informed that it might take her some time to be comfortable around people."

Jessie nodded slowly and continued to follow Melissa down the corridor toward Albert's ward.

ALL of sudden, she stopped in her tracks, looked at Melissa, and mumbled something unintelligible.

Still, Melissa was able to guess what Jessie wanted to say.

Although Albert had always been tight-lipped about Jeslyn's identity to Melissa, she had still been able to figure out who Jeslyn really was thanks to what she learnt from Marcus.

With a soft smile on Melissa's face, she squeezed Jessie's hand lightly and said, "One of the reasons why Jeslyn has always been loved by Mr. Waston was because of the resemblance between her name and yours. For quite some time, Mr. Waston deemed it impossible to be with you, hence Jeslyn became his primary emotional support. Whenever he called her name, it likely evoked memories of you and the past you guys had together, perhaps leading to regret. Taking this into account, it's hardly a surprise that he risked his life to save Jeslyn from Axell. He simply loves her that much."

Melissa's words were followed by a silent gesture of comfort as she patted Jessie on the shoulder.

With a deep breath, Jessie nodded slowly and said, “I'll go inside to see him now."

With that, she pushed the door of the super VIP ward open and walked into an impressively Large room.

There was a reception room, at the end of which was Albert's room.
