CHAPTER 2303

"Christopher is an outstanding alchemist and has managed to come up with antidotes to all of the

poisons my mother has formulated.The two of them have always worked together this way; one to

poison and one to cure."

Jim closed his eyes and let out a bitter chuckle.

"I was so focused on getting Christopher to come to help me that I forgot I had failed to protect two of

the most important women in his life.Perhaps this is God's way of punishing me...and I deserve this.

"I never dared to face my feelings toward Bonnie when she was alright, and it took her getting into a

fatal accident for me to realize my true feelings.

"I just don't understand.If God wanted to punish me, why did he inflict this suffering on Bonnie and not

me..."

Leaning against the headboard and watching the remorseful look on Jim's face, Sean could not help

feeling a little bitter himself.He suddenly recalled what Joshua had told him that morning.

Perhaps Joshua was right; perhaps Jim was the only one who could have given Bonnie her happily

ever after.

If she was not in her coma, she would probably be delighted to hear Jim say these things about her,

would she not? This was the biggest difference between Sean and Jim.

Bonnie loved Jim, and no matter how much he hurt her, as long as he changed his mind, she would still

love and accept him wholly.

On the other hand, Sean had never hurt her before, yet he could never win her heart.

"If..."

Sean let out a sigh.

"If Bonnie gets through this, will you treat her better from now on?"

"Of course I will."

Jim lifted his head to stare earnestly at his brother.

"I'm just afraid I might never have the chance to do this."

Sean fell silent upon hearing this.

Truth be told, no one could guarantee if Bonnie would be able to wake up from her coma.

All of a sudden, the door swung open.The doctor and nurse had come to escort Sean into the operation

room.

After sending Sean into surgery, Jim sat on the bench outside the door and began his anxious wait.

After God knew how long, the elevator doors slid open, Luna darted out of the elevator, sprinting the

entire length of the hallway until she reached Jim.

"Where's Sean?"

Jim pointed at the sign above the operation room that read, [In Use ]. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

"The doctors couldn't guarantee whether they'd be able to save his hands if they didn't operate as soon

as possible..."

Luna interrupted him curtly, "It doesn't matter anyway; we'd all be better off if he lost his hands!"

Jim furrowed his brows when he picked up on Luna's hostile attitude.

"How can you say that, Luna?"

"What's wrong with me saying this?"

Luna shot him a cold look and snapped, "Do you know why Christopher went crazy? Do you even

know why he returned in the first place? It was all because of Sean!"

She glared at the operation room and spat through gritted teeth, "He's just doing this to earn your pity!

He was the one who landed you and Christopher in this situation, and he was the one who almost killed

Bonnie!"

Jim narrowed his eyes and said frostily, "What the hell is your problem? Go get yourself checked, you

crazy bitch!"

Sean was his brother, and he had leaped in front of a knife for him! He could not believe that Luna was

saying things like these about a man who was about to lose both his hands!

"You're the one who needs to get checked; you're being tricked by his mind games!"

Luna narrowed her eyes and snuck a glance out of the corner of her eye.

When she caught sight of the coat sleeve peeking out of a crack in the fire escape door, she curled her

lips into a cold sneer.

Finally, she tucked her smile away and continued angrily, "Jim, you have no idea how manipulative

Sean was! He's been tricking you and Bonnie all this while!"
