Raegan hesitated, then spoke up.

"Your dad mentioned there's a chance for treatment abroad for your legs "

Henley's expression grew dimmer as he dismissed the idea, "I won't go.

Raegan, don't waste your efforts trying to convince me."

“But there's still hope. Why resign yourself to this?"

“Just Leave me be. I've made up my mind.”

Henley closed his eyes, shutting out the conversation.

Raegan, steadfast in her resolve, pressed on, “Are you ready to give up on yourself and wallow in despair? You're not someone who gives in easily. Don't dismiss every possibility without trying."

Henley's lashes fluttered slightly, a sign that her words were reaching him, but his resolve remained.

Seeing him in such a state, so different from his usual well-groomed and vibrant self, deepened Raegan's sense of guilt and concern.

Taking a deep breath, Raegan continued, her voice firm with conviction, "Henley, I know how scary and overwhelming this is, facing the prospect of losing your leg. But we should face it together. I'll be by your side until you're healed."

Henley opened his eyes, a cold look in them.

“Do you understand what you're saying?"

Raegan gazed at Henley earnestly and spoke with sincerity.

"I'm fully aware of what I had said. After all, your leg was injured because of me. It's only right that I stay by your side to take care of you until you're fully recovered."

Upon hearing her words, a change came over Henley's face. The sparkle in his eyes seemed to vanish.

Raegan was indeed guileless. How could she harbor any other thoughts?

Once settled on a plan for his ongoing treatment, Henley reached out to a renowned specialist in this field. He was preparing to undergo surgery in the coming days.

The police visited the hospital to record Henley's statement. Henley recounted his reasons for being there that night as his concern for Raegan. He had arrived at Raegan's place just in time to see Tessa abduct her. He followed them, biding his time to save Raegan.

The police verified his account against the surveillance footage. It all matched the timeline perfectly.
