Shania didn’t expect Jackson to go this far for Katherine Compton.
To pursue her he didn’t hesitate to haut his own wife
In excruciating pain, she was about to speak, but then everything went black
uck and she passed out.
When she woke up again, she felt a sharp pain in the back of her head. She struggled to open her eyes and saw a strange ceiling. She couldn’t tell what time it was for a meinent.

A cold voice sended

“I’m your caregiver, Katherine,” the girl said calmly but with a hint of detachment. “Even though I’ve moved in, please make sure to manage Mr. If he crosses the line again, I will leave immediately.”
Shania felt a sharp pain in her chest.
How ironic! This little girl mores into her own home, but still has to “manage her own husband” as the lady of the house.

“I need to change categivers,” Shania croaked.
Katherine seemed to not hear, and took out a syringe by herself, “Now I’ll give you an anti–inflammatory injection.”
The first needle went in, couldn’t find the vein.
The second injection was off target, and a small bump immediately formed on the back of my hand.
The third shot even drew blood directly.
“You couldn’t sew, so let someone else do it,” Shania’s voice trembled with pain.
Upon hearing this, Katherine immediately teared up and defiantly said, “What do you mean? If it weren’t for my grandmother being seriously ill, do you think I would willingly come?”
She said as she reached out to grab Shania’s hand again, this time the needle pierced the skin deeply, and blood flowed down her fair wrist
Shania couldn’t bear the pain anymore, she pushed her away abruptly and said, “Enough! Don’t touch me!”
Katherine stumbled backwards, knocked over the medicine tray, and shattered the glass bottle on the floor
Just then, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Jackson strode in.
“What’s going on?” His pap shifted between the two of them, finally settling on Katherine, who was sitting on the ground, her face pale. “Since you don’t welcome me, I’m leaving!” Katherine got up with red eyes and was about to rush out.

“How can I make you stay?” he asked rely
Katherine raised her chin and said, “I hate it when rich people act all high and mighty. I want her to apologize to me.

At that moment, Shanda felt like she was hit by a ton of bricks,
She hit her lower lip hard until she tasted blood.
Seeing Jackson’s expression turning colder, she realized he was serious. She struggled to get up from the bed, enduring the humiliation, and bowed deeply to Katherine, saying, “T’is sorry,
Katherine frowned and said, “Do rich people apologize so quietly?”
Shania’s nails dug deep into her palm as she bent over again, raising her voice, “Sorry! Are you happy now?
After Katherine reluctantly nodded, Jackson finally softened his expression and carefully persuaded her to take the medicine.
The moment the door closed, Shania couldn’t hold on anymore,
collapsed on the ground, silently crying.
She found a yellowed love letter under the pillow and tremblingly lit it.
When the flames consumed the ninety–sixth page of the love letter, she remembered how sixteen–year–old Jackson looked when he wrote this letter.
