My Past is Just Prologue (Janet and Nathaniel)
Chapter 248

Chapter 248 Nathaniel's Still Holding Onto His Humanity

Inside the ward.

Nigel knew what had happened and was still in a state of shock.

Fortunately, fortunately...

Though Nigel did not want to admit this, Nathaniel indeed saved Janet.

Fortunately, Nathaniel was holding onto his humanity.

Otherwise, Janet would have been shot and killed.

"I'm glad you're okay." Nigel's voice was a little hoarse. He took a deep breath

and sat by the bed, gazing at Janet. He unconsciously reached out to hold her hand. "I'm scared to death. In the future... I'll protect you."

Janet was shocked by his sudden movement. She quickly withdrew her hand

back and looked away as if nothing had happened.

She looked at the dark-skinned caregiver and changed the topic. "Thank you

for taking her here. You helped me a lot."

"It's nothing."

Nigel didn't hold her hand. He knew that Janet definitely resisted his touch. He felt really sad deep down, as if he was at rock bottom. However, he hid his true feelings behind a nonchalant smile. "It's the least I could do. Let me take care of you for the next few days."

Janet said sincerely, "It's hard for me to move around. The caregiver will take good care of me. Thank you." Then she refused directly, "She will stay with

1. me. That's enough. I know you're busy, so I'm not going to detain you." Nigel subconsciously wanted to retort.

However, seeing Janet's pale face as well as the pain and tiredness in her

eyes, he bit back the words he would like to have said.

He did not want to bother Janet or bore her. Not even a little bit.

Moreover, at this time, Janet was injured.

Nigel pursed his lips and tried his best to suppress the overwhelming sense

of loss. "Alright. Get some rest."

As he spoke, Nigel looked at the caregiver and instructed her, "Lily Cole, take good care of her."

Lily hurriedly stepped forward, nodded, and carefully asked how to address

Janet.

When it was all arranged, Nigel reluctantly left.

Before leaving, Nigel called Lily outside the door and warned her that if

Nathaniel came again, she must inform him at once.

Lily got defensive and nodded heavily.

With Lily's help, Janet could easily move around.

When dawn broke, a doctor came to give Janet a check-up. The nurse who

came with the doctor was enthusiastic and nosy, asking where Janet's

handsome husband had gone.

Janet was stunned for a long time before she realized that the nurse was

referring to Nathaniel.

"He's not my husband," she replied seriously, feeling bitter deep down.

The nurse seemed unconvinced and told Janet not to be shy. She said that Nathaniel must be her husband because he was nervous when he sent her viele Still Holding Onto Jie Humanity.

here.

Get Boy

No matter what Janet said, the nurse thought that Janet was too shy to tell

her the truth. Then Janet stopped explaining and let the nurse tease her.

Anyway, Nathaniel was no longer her husband,

After the check-up, Janet had lunch and felt sleepy. Janet lay propped up on cushions and gradually fell asleep.

The anesthetic in her abdomen began to wear off. She felt that she was trapped in a dream.

She could clearly feel the pain in her lower abdomen and knew that she was

in a dream, but she could not get out.

In the dream, it was a bright day. She saw a few vaguely familiar figures.

It seemed to be...

Father and Mother!

Janet widened her eyes and ran up to them, trying to hug them.

But when she was close to those figures, they suddenly disappeared. Janet hugged nothing.

Soon, another figure appeared in front of her.

The figure was tall and wiry with broad shoulders. Janet was so familiar with

him...

Janet stood on the spot and watched him quietly, a strong sense of sadness surging from the bottom of her heart.

Nathaniel...

She had loved and hated him, but now she was disheartened and didn't want

to see him anymore.

However, fate had other ideas and she got entangled with him repeatedly.

The bitter dream made her feel suffocated and painful. She almost could not

breathe. She raised her hand to punch her chest, trying to get rid of the

tightness. However, when she was about to punch herself in the chest, her

hand was suddenly held by someone.

Janet suddenly opened her eyes and turned to look at the bedside coldly. Lily, who was holding her hand, was shocked by her eyes and let go of her in

embarrassment.

"Ms. Longfellow, are you all right?"

Lily was born in Canada. Her dark skin made her look kind and honest.

Janet came back to her senses. She slowly exhaled and withdrew her hand.

"I know that you were trapped in a dream. My family had also been like this

before..."

Lily seemed to be trying to calm Janet down. She whispered to Janet about

her family story.

Janet calmed down bit by bit.

But her longing for her parents reached its peak at this moment.

She couldn't help but begin to hate herself.

If she wasn't so incompetent... Perhaps, she would have found a witness this time. At least, she wouldn't be so careless and fall into a trap.

Really...

Janet's frown deepened.

After Lily finished speaking, Janet asked her to get some food, while she

called Marco.

"Marco? In America... What did Conrad do recently?"
