Chapter 84
“Tch, you think I want to bother?”
Jane saw Drake’s demeanor and decided to leave on her own without any concern.
She took a few steps forward, but her concern for Drake made her turn back and offer her support, her face unyielding as she spoke.
“I’m doing this for Zac’s sake, otherwise, I wouldn’t even bother with you.”
The words spoken by Jane caused Drake to experience a great deal of pain, which led to his strength considerably weakening, making it difficult for him to break free from her grip.
“Don’t move, you know how uncomfortable it is when your stomach acts up. Let me take you to the hospital first.”
With Jane’s support, Drake eventually gave up struggling and agreed to go to the hospital.
He was examined by Dr Harrington, who provided him with medication and an IV drip, and he felt slightly better as a result.
As Jane looked at Drake’s pale face on the hospital bed, she felt a mix of emotions that she couldn’t quite explain.
“Do you need me to contact Annie to take care of you?”
Upon hearing this, Drake’s face remained expressionless, but his eyes betrayed a hint of
coldness.
“No need.”
“Why? Don’t want Annie to make the effort to come?” Jane’s words carried a hint of jealousy.
It wasn’t until Annie showed up at the Warners‘ home that night that Jane remembered she existed.
Uncertainty filled her as she pondered whether anything had transpired between Annie and Drake that night. Annie’s craftiness likely led to her winning Drake back once again.
“It’s just a minor issue. Having you here is enough,” Drake said calmly.
Hearing this, Jane became displeased. “So, you mean I deserve to take care of you?”
“It’s because you meddled in other people’s business. Since that’s the case, then you have to stay with me until the IV drip is finished,” Drake said.
Hearing his words, Jane felt even more unwilling. She glared at the man fiercely and said in a displeased tone, “If it weren’t for Zac, I wouldn’t bother taking care of you. I can’t let Zac grow up without a father at such a young age.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Jane’s phone began to ring. Jasper’s name flashed on the screen as she picked up the phone. Jane quickly exited the ward to answer the call, her footsteps echoing down the sterile hallway.
As Jane listened to the voice on the other end of the phone, she learned the devastating news that Jasper had been in a car accident. Hanging up the phone, she made her way back

to the ward, picked up her bag, and exchanged a few words with Drake.
“I have something to attend to. I have to leave. Find someone else to take care of you.”
As Jane hurriedly prepared to leave, Drake coldly said, “You’re not allowed to leave.”
“I really have something urgent,” Jane said urgently.
“What could be more important than me?” Drake’s voice carried a hint of anger.
He had intended to create space between himself and Jane, but she kept getting closer. And now, she wanted to leave again. He couldn’t believe he let that woman get under his skin, only for her to walk away unscathed.
“There’s an emergency with Jasper. I have to go.” Jane said, no longer caring about Drake’s thoughts. She grabbed her things, the sound of the jingling keys echoing through the room, and headed towards the door.
“If you dare to leave, don’t blame me for not being polite,” Drake said coldly.
Jane had already reached the door. She hesitated briefly after hearing Drake’s words, then left anyway.
Drake felt a wave of embarrassment wash over him as Jane left. When Dr Harrington arrived to change the IV drip, Drake’s demeanour changed, and the air in the room became heavy, making Dr Harrington feel uneasy.
“What’s going on? Wasn’t Jane just here? Did you drive her away?”
“She went to find some wild man on her own. I couldn’t stop her,” Drake said sarcastically. harbouring grudges against Jane for leaving him alone in the hospital.
As Drake spoke, Dr Harrington observed the furrowed brows and tense jaw, recognising his anger. He tried to console him, but the words just wouldn’t come.
“You may talk tough, but if you treated her better, she wouldn’t go looking for other men. Don’t forget how attentive she used to be to you.”
Hearing Dr Harrington’s words, Drake’s face grew even darker. “You too can leave!”
Upon seeing Drake’s darkened face, Dr Harrington let out an exasperated sigh and left the ward.
As he sat in the hospital room, Drake’s thoughts raced and collided. There was no denying that Dr Harrington spoke the truth.
Whenever he thought of the old Jane’s generosity, he felt a twinge of regret for how he had treated her.
The only reason Jane showed any concern was Zac, as she was now indifferent towards him. Drake was uncomfortable due to the stark contrast between the two. Dialling a number on the other side of the Atlantic, he held the phone to his ear and waited for someone to pick
- up.
Jasper had just finished treating his injuries when Jane arrived at the other hospital. Jane furrowed her brows as she saw Jasper lying on the hospital bed, looking pale and weak.
“What happened? Are you okay?”
Chapter 84
Jane rushing over brought a nonchalant smile to Jasper’s face, feeling particularly good.
“Nothing major, just a little car wreck. The other driver was hammered and we had a little. accident.”
“Are you alright?” Jane looked at Jasper’s hand hanging in a sling and his foot immobilised in a cast, expressing her concern.
“No problem, just a scratch on my hand, but the foot is a bit more serious. It’s fractured, so I can’t move freely for now. I have to trouble you to take care of me,” Jasper said.
“It’s no trouble at all. If you’re in need, I will definitely help,” Jane said casually.
During her time overseas, Jasper had been instrumental in providing her with support and aid. Taking care of two adorable children while developing her career was no easy feat, but Jasper played a significant role in helping her manage it all.
Jane had never forgotten the favour Jasper had done for her and wanted to find a way to repay him.
“It may take more than a few days. The doctor said the recovery period will be at least a month,” Jasper continued.
“Don’t worry about that. I will take good care of you until you recover.” Jane interrupted.
Jasper’s lips twitched into a faint smile upon hearing her words. “Good.”
Jane’s best friend April was entrusted with the task of picking up and dropping off their two adorable children, as Jane had to take care of the injured Jasper.
Jane welcomed April back and offered her a place to stay. Not having to go to work left her with a blank slate of a day, waiting to be filled with activities. When Jane asked for help with the children, April didn’t hesitate to offer her help.
Every morning, Jane would wake up early to prepare breakfast for Jasper before delivering it to him at the hospital. She would then visit him again at noon and return once more after work.
She took the decision to hire a male nurse to help take care of him during the remaining
time.
Drake observed how Jane would arrive late and leave early every day, tending to the injured Jasper. With each passing moment, his mood turned more and more sour, until it was almost unbearable to be around him.
Hmph, leaving him alone in the hospital to take care of someone else.
