Chapter 1280 Seeing Jacqueline
“Just get him to come along with us, as there’s no way I’m going to let him meet with her alone given how soft-hearted he is.” Shane narrowed his gaze.
Shane knew very well how extremely kind Jackson was in both his speech and conduct. Ever since he was young, he harbored significantly more compassion and sympathy than his peers.
As a kid, he would cry over the death of the villain on television. His unwavering respect for life was what drove him to become a doctor.
Furthermore, Jacqueline was the one he loved despite having declared that she deserved her punishment and that he wouldn’t save her again.
In spite of that, no one knew how Jackson would react when he heard Jacqueline’s pleas.
“You have a point,” Natalie agreed.
When Jackson wavered the last time, he ended up freeing Jacqueline, which lead to Connor and Sharon being hurt.
Subsequently, Jacqueline was on the run for a very long time.
As a result, they had to keep a close eye on Jackson this time so that he wouldn’t be bewitched by Jacqueline again.
With that, Shane gave the latter a call.
At that moment, Jackson was seeing a patient. When his phone rang, he excused himself and answered, “Shane?”
“Jacqueline has been brought back to J City,” Shane informed candidly.
Jackson widened his eyes in shock. “She’s here?”
“Mmm-hmm, she’ll be at the Graham residence one hour later. You should head over if you want to see her. If you miss this opportunity, I won’t give you a second chance,” Shane plainly replied.
That was the only time he would permit Jackson to see Jacqueline.
After that, he would never allow it again.
Upon hearing those words, Jackson acknowledged, “I understand. I’ll go over in a while.”
Without another word, Shane ended the call. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
Feeling lost after the call, Jackson spaced out briefly. After that, he returned to his office and smiled at his patient. “I’m sorry. Let’s continue with your diagnosis.”
The patient nodded.
Jackson then pulled out his chair and sat down to analyze the patient’s condition.
Once he had given the patient his diagnosis, Jackson gave his boss a call and took the rest of the day off.
After his leave was approved, Jackson packed his things and took off his coat before driving to the Graham residence.
At the same time, Natalie and Shane left for the same destination.
As luck would have it, all three of them arrived at the same time.
Jackson walked up to them. “Shane, Natalie.”
“Dr. Baker,” Natalie greeted in a cordial yet distant tone.
Ever since Jackson helped Jacqueline to escape and hurt her children, that was how she treated him. He was neither close nor a friend to her. Instead, he was relegated to just being an acquaintance.
It was also the same for Shane.
Obviously, Jackson knew the reason behind the way they treated him and had no choice but to bravely accept it.
He didn’t feel bad losing Natalie’s friendship, for he was never close to her.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t accept losing Shane as a friend, for both of them had grown up together.
As of then, Shane had fallen out with him due to a momentary lapse of judgment on his part.
Consequently, he couldn’t deny that he was filled with regret over losing his one and only friend.
Sadly, it was too late for regrets, for no one was able to turn back the clock.
“Come, let’s go in first.” Evidently, Shane had no intention of catching up with Jackson. Holding Natalie’s hand, he led her inside and didn’t bother to even give Jackson a look.
Unlike Shane, Natalie smiled politely at Jackson before heading in.
With that, Jackson wiped his face as he followed them with a wry smile.
As the three of them entered the Jackson residence, Silas came down from upstairs. “Mr. Thompson, you’re here.”
“Where’s Jacqueline?” Shane asked without delay.
Silas pointed upstairs. “She’s in her room.”
“What about Marina?” Natalie asked.
Silas replied, “She has been handed over to the police. Even though she works for Sean, she was never personally involved in the matters between Sean and us. Also, she didn’t participate in what Jacqueline had done. Therefore, I turned her over to the police for them to deal with her.”
