Refusing to Remarry: Mr. Hawthorne, You Are Out-Chapter 149: Two People Who Clearly Love Each Other
The nurses outside heard the commotion and immediately rushed in to assist.
At this moment, Jonas Hawthorne was already in such pain that he could hardly think.
The kind of intense pain that seemed to tear a person’s soul apart swept over him once again.
John Franklin noticed during the examination that Jonas was pressing on the area of his heart, breathing unsteadily, with a pained expression, a classic case of angina.
Recalling their previous conversation, John immediately thought of a possibility and said, "Stop thinking about it! Jonas Hawthorne, if you don’t think, your heart won’t hurt!"
But at this point, what could Jonas Hawthorne hear?
He was deeply trapped in remorse and self-blame.
Some things are simple to know, but who can truly do it?
Not thinking, it’s not something that can be controlled with just a word.
If it were really that way, why would there be so many lovelorn souls in this world?
Seeing Jonas’s increasingly pained expression, John knew he surely hadn’t done as he suggested.
His body was already weak, how could he endure such pain?
John’s expression darkened, and he decisively gave Jonas a sedative injection.
A few minutes later, Jonas’s thoughts began to scatter...
No more thoughts, no longer haunted by the woman in his mind, the heartache seemed less acute.
What followed was endless darkness and sinking.
When he woke again, two hours had passed.
Upon opening his eyes, it was to John’s questioning.
"How long has this condition lasted?"
After all, as a doctor, regardless of the patient, asking questions was a necessary process.
Jonas knew what he was asking. As he supported himself up to a semi-sitting position, he began to recall.
Initially, it was just occasional chest tightness and suffocation.
Later, it gradually intensified...
The most painful moment must have been when he saw Raine Sinclair being resuscitated in the hospital?
Since then, this high-frequency stabbing pain had frequently appeared.
"A month." Jonas uttered a timeframe.
"Besides the pain, are there any other symptoms?" John asked again.
This time, Jonas slowly shook his head.
"It seems you have neurogenic angina." John flipped through the examination report in his hand and concluded, "During your unconsciousness, I examined your heart, very healthy, no pathological changes. Secondly, you said this situation has persisted for a month, which is clearly unrelated to the explosion. The treatment plan is, don’t think about it, and it won’t occur."
Hearing this, Jonas slowly curled his lips into a cold smile.
Not think about it...
He couldn’t do it.
Once someone takes up residence in your heart, no one can drive them away.
John saw his demeanor and knew it was pointless to persuade him further, only saying, "Logically speaking, your pain is more psychological, with no real physiological harm. But if you’re outside next time and the pain causes you to faint, it might lead to accidents. Weigh it yourself. Also, I’ll prescribe some painkillers, keep them with you, and when you can’t bear it, take one to feel a bit better."
There was only so much he could do to help.
Being a doctor has its moments of helplessness.
Even with a solution, there’s nothing to be done with a non-compliant patient.
Jonas slowly nodded, uninterested in medication.
He understood his body well.
After talking for a while, the sedative effect had almost completely dissipated. He asked, "Has grandmother woken up?"
"Not yet. The elderly are frail and might sleep until tomorrow," John replied, "I’ll add some more nutrients for you."
"No need." Jonas pulled out the needle on the back of his hand and got out of bed.
Seeing his actions, John frowned, "What are you doing?"
"Going back to the company," Jonas replied.
With so many events happening, and after sleeping for two days, plus today made it three days.
The Hawthorne Group must have been in quite a disarray, and he needed to return to take charge.
John raised an eyebrow observing his actions, recalling how after performing surgery on the old lady, he heard from the nurses that Jonas woke up and had a meal with Dr. Lawson, chatting for a long while before they each went to sleep.
In the meantime, Jonas had also tried to remove the needle and leave, but Dr. Lawson stopped him.
Seeing this, when Jonas was with Raine Sinclair, the atmosphere was noticeably calm, and it was voluntary on his part.
But now, seeing his anxious eagerness to leave, John suddenly asked, "What if Raine was here right now and didn’t let you leave?"
Jonas’s movements of changing clothes suddenly stiffened.
"The nurses said you listened to Raine before?" Repeating what the nurses said, John continued, "Jonas Hawthorne, you clearly still like Raine, right?"
"..." Jonas didn’t rebut nor did he admit it.
In this situation, even saying it out loud was pointless.
John, seeing his silence, roughly understood the situation.
Without a trace of blame or ridicule, he shifted the topic, his tone growing more serious, "But don’t forget, you still have another woman, and she’s carrying your child."
Jonas’s eyes darkened slightly.
As for Candace Ford’s child... it was not one he wanted her to conceive.
He hadn’t even touched Candace.
When he found out about the child, he felt no joy or anticipation.
Yet even so, he hadn’t exposed Candace’s lie.
After all, it’s a life.
After a long time, Jonas sighed, "I know."
"As a man, you should handle this relationship properly. Jonas Hawthorne, if you dare hurt Raine again, I won’t let you off!" John’s words resounded, as if vowing a solemn oath!
The air seemed filled with a deathly aura.
After a while, Jonas let out a helpless laugh, "John, how could I hurt her?"
It turns out, in everyone’s eyes, he had always been hurting Raine Sinclair?
But he was in pain too...
John was momentarily stunned, not quite understanding. Seeing Jonas’s expression, he was deeply troubled.
In the silence, Jonas had already started walking toward the door.
"Where are you going? You need rest right now," John called after him.
Without turning his head, Jonas replied, "I’m going to see her."
John naturally knew who ’her’ was and didn’t stop him.
He couldn’t fathom what Jonas was thinking...
Considering how much he cared about Raine, even developing uncontrollable angina for her, how could he have another woman?
It even escalated to the point of divorce.
Two people clearly in love, yet forced to separate, enduring such torment.
——
When Jonas reached the next room, the first thing he saw was Raine Sinclair curled up on the single bed.
