---- Chapter 207 Jenna hesitated , trailing off. In that moment, she seemed to hint at an unspoken intimacy between Liam and Wendy. James clenched his fists at his sides and growled through his teeth. "Get out." Jenna flinched and turned to look at him, eyes brimming with tears. "James, did I say something wrong?" "Don't make me repeat myself." His voice, laced with anger, echoed through the quiet room. It blended with Ethan's sobbing, sending chills down everyone's spine.
Liam hadn't even opened his mouth when Yara stepped in, already pushing him toward the door. "Dr. Harrison , why don't you consult with Dr. Virelli about ways to wake Wendy up?" After Liam left, Jenna remained frozen in place. From the doorway, Yara called out, "Anyone unrelated needs to step outside." Jenna stiffened. She forced out a smile. "I'll wait just outside, James. If anything happens, just call me." James didn't reply.
He walked straight to the bed and pulled the crying Ethan into his arms. ---- "Stop crying. If you have something to say, say it. Crying won't help." James had lost all patience with even his son. Ignored, Jenna bit her lip and left the room. "Daddy, is Mommy going to die? Auntie Jenna said Mommy might die. I don't want Mommy to die!" Ethan clung to James, sobbing as he asked. "That isn't happening ! Mommy won't die." James's frown deepened as he stared at Wendy's lifeless face.
His chest ached. "Dr. Lennox said that if I stay by her side and keep talking , Mommy will wake up, right?" Ethan let go of him and climbed onto the bed, grabbing Wendy's hand. Before James could answer, Ethan had already started crying, "Mommy, please wake up, okay? I promise I won't ever upset you again." Watching the scene unfold, James felt a sting in his nose. His eyes burned. Outside the room, Jenna stared at the tender moment through the doorway, gritting her teeth.
She had done so much, yet all it took was one kidnapping for Wendy to reclaim everything? No. She wouldn't let that happen. ---- Lying motionless in bed, Wendy didn't stir. Jenna secretly prayed she would never wake up. But once she calmed down, curiosity crept in. Who had orchestrated this? Judging by Wendy's injuries, she had been tortured. This didn't look staged at all. Jenna couldn't make sense of it. Her gaze eventually landed on James's remorseful face.
She knew many people had their eyes on Frank Group. Among them, one person hated the Frank family more than anyone. Could it be him? Had he finally made his move after all these years? No. She quickly dismissed the thought. After all her time by James' side, she'd never once received a signal from that man. He wouldn't act so recklessly on his own. Not far away, Yara glanced at Jenna, who stood lost in thought. Her expression was full of contempt. "See her? That's Dr. Sanders' sister.
She's always treated Dr. Sanders poorly, and yet she's always hanging around her husband and kid."
