Chapter 1284 Guilt And Remorse

Meanwhile, Jacqueline's bite was so tight that she threatened to rip the flesh off his shoulders.

In spite of that, she inexplicably let go in the end.

Once he was free, Jackson staggered backward and turned to check his shoulder.

Evidently, her bite had resulted in a very deep wound.

Grabbing Jackson's arm, Jacqueline uttered in a trembling voice, "Jackie, you must be lying. I'm sure that my legs can still be saved, right? There's no way they are crippled. Tell me that's true and that I still have a chance. I beg of you, please tell me that, all right?"

At the sight of Jacqueline pleading pitifully, Jackson felt a sense of bitterness creep into his heart.

That was the first time he saw how helpless she was.

All this while, she had taken advantage of his love for her by behaving haughtily toward him. She always looked down on him and felt as if she was doing him a favor whenever she spoke to him. But now, she was willing to lower herself and beg.

If it was in the past, he would definitely have been delighted that she was willing to get off her high horse and he no longer had to suffer her condescending attitude.

Now that it actually happened, he found no reason for joy because she had changed not for his sake, but because she needed an answer on whether her legs could still be saved.

Once she couldn't get it, she would revert back to her arrogant self.

Ever since the beginning, he never meant anything to her.

"I'm sorry, Jacqueline. Your legs can't be saved. Since your kneecap has been shattered, current medical technology has no way of helping you," Jackson explained as he shook his head at Jacqueline. Even though she would never accept his answer, there was no way he could lie to her.

Furthermore, he was tired. This visit was supposed to be the last time he saw her, as going forward, he would sever all ties between them.

As a result, there was no point in telling a white lie.

Having heard Jackson's words, Jacqueline finally calmed down briefly before letting out another earth-shattering scream that was brimming with hatred.

It was as if she was expressing her rage at the person who broke her legs and him for not being able to save her.

Perhaps, she's cursing me in her heart for being useless.

With a wry smile on his face, Jackson didn't bother to comfort her as he watched her erupt in anger.

After a while, Jacqueline finally calmed down when she was drained from all the yelling.

Looking at Jackson, she pleaded with a raspy voice, "Jackie, please rescue me. I don't want to be locked in here. Shane hates me because he knows I'm responsible for his parents' death. Therefore, there's no way he will let me go. Jackie, you have to let me out. You just have to!"

As if he was her last ray of hope, Jacqueline grabbed Jackson's arm tightly.

However, he forcefully pulled his hand out of her grasp and retreated backward to put some distance in between them. Only then did he reply, "I'm sorry Jacqueline, I can't save you."

"Why? You can!" Sprawled on the edge of the bed, she began to grow emotional. "You saved me the last time. You can definitely do it again this time."

"Even if I can, I won't." Jackson shook his head.

Jacqueline stared deathly at him with her eyes filled with disbelief. "You won't save me? Why won't you? Jackson, don't you love me anymore?"

"I do!" Jackson replied. "I have always loved you, and my feelings have never changed. Ever since we were young, you have been my one true love." He looked longingly at her.

When she saw the affection in his eyes, Jacqueline felt inexplicably miserable. The sorrow that descended upon her heart slowly evolved into guilt and remorse.

She didn't understand why she was being overwhelmed by such emotions. Nonetheless, she didn't give them much thought as she quickly gathered herself. Tightening her grip on the bedsheet, she questioned, "Since you still love me, why don't you save me, Jackson? Do you really want to see Shane torment me? Or perhaps, even kill me?"
