Chapter 459


    Chapter 450 No Need to Put on a firave


    After he hung up the phone, Jason waited outside the corridor. At that moment, Aletta was still under


    observation.


    The pain inside her body continued to radiate, and before long, her body reached its limit. She couldn’t


    bear it any longer and fainted utterly.


    “Aletta!” Jock and Kirk eximed, filled with concern.


    Immediately, the people nearby rushed over.


    Jason was unaware of the situation inside but faintly heard their cries. His breath momentarily stopped,


    and his heart felt like a tightly wound string.


    Clearly, Aletta’s every move inside profoundly impacted Jason’s emotional state. Observing this scene,


    Eaton became increasingly aware of Miss Aletta’s importance to their young master.


    Aletta fell into a deepa, yet she remained engulfed in immense pain. Her body asionally


    twitched due to the agony, causing the onlookers to feel sympathy.


    President Thomson also felt uneasy and said, “When Aletta woke up, she would likely continue to


    suffer. Let’s administer a painkiller to her then.”


    Lewis softly replied, “Alright.”


    Their gazes remained fixed on Aletta, their expressions filled with deep concern.


    Currently, the atmosphere in theboratory was far from pleasant; there was a pervasive sense of


    somberness.


    President Thomson couldn’t help but feel remorse. If it weren’t for the “cause” he had created all those


    years ago, Aletta wouldn’t have to bear this “effect.”


    Especially upon seeing Aletta faint from the pain, he almost. drowned in self-me.


    After some contemtion, President Thomson decided to step outside first.


    Jason immediately approached, anxiously inquiring, “President, how was Aletta?”


    Seeing the man before he lost hisposure, President Thomson felt even more guilty. At that


    moment, he only wanted to contribute something to alleviate Aletta’s suffering.


    Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g


    His old-fashioned and conservative thinking had been cast aside.


    President Thomson made an exception, saying, “Aletta turned away from you because she didn’t want


    you to see her in pain. She had already fainted. However, I believe that Aletta having you by her side


    might make her feel a bit better. Go in.”


    Before Jason could express his gratitude, he nodded and immediately walked in, his steps hurried.


    Kirk had brought a basin of warm water inside the room to wipe Aletta’s face.


    Upon Jason’s arrival and observing Kirk’s actions, he said, “Let me do it.”


    The others didn’t object.


    Kirk handed him the towel and moved aside.


    As Jason approached, he saw Aletta lying on the bed, herplexion pale, brows furrowed. Even in


    her sleep, she experienced endless pain and torment.


    Jason’s heart felt like someone was gripping and pulling at it, and the pain continued to spread.


    If it were possible, Jason wished he could endure it on Aletta’s behalf.


    However, reality didn’t allow for such a solution. Jason could only take a deep breath and gently wiped


    Aletta’s face, every motion. extremely cautious.


    During the process, Aletta suddenly trembled.


    Jason’s heart skipped a beat, and he immediately stopped until Aletta regained herposure before


    continuing.


    After finishing with her face, Jason proceeded to wipe Aletta’s hands.


    When the towel touched her palm, Aletta seemed in unbearable pain. She let out a muffled groan and


    instinctively grabbed Jason’s hand.


    The intense agony still permeated throughout her body.


    Consequently, her grip on Jason’s hand became unbearably intense.


    Jason could feel the pain emanating from her. He didn’t struggle but allowed Aletta to hold on.


    Only through this method could he truly understand how much Aletta was suffering.


    Once the task wasplete, Jason sat beside her, his mood quite gloomy.


    Over an hourter, Aletta woke up from hera.


    When Aletta opened her eyes, she appeared as if she had been pulled out of water. The area where


    her head rested was drenched, and her clothes were soaked with cold sweat…


    Aletta could feel the enduring pain, even on the verge of being tormented to the point of losing her


    sanity.


    However, as she gazed at Jason’s face beside her, Aletta was slightly taken aback.


    “How did you… get in?” she uttered, her voice hoarse and almost incoherent.


    Full of tender concern despite his anguish, Jason replied, “I came in to be with you. How does it feel?”


    While speaking, Jason gently brushed aside the disheveled hair on Aletta’s face.


    Aletta subconsciously tried to force a smile but soon realized she couldn’t manage it.


    She could only endure the pain, weakly saying, “Much better…”


    Although her words were meant to providefort, theycked conviction.


    Jason noticed Aletta’s trembling lips, uncontroble and expressive.


    The more Aletta exhibited this vulnerability, the more Jason’s heart ached.


    With deep eyes, Jason softly spoke, “You don’t need to pretend everything is fine in front of me. If it


    hurts, say it. Don’t be afraid of worrying me, okay?”


    Aletta stiffened upon hearing his words, wanting to deny any pretense.


    But Jason’s gaze was too gentle,


    rendering her unable to utter those words of false strength.


    After silence, Aletta struggled to speak, her voice strained, “It hurts… a lot, it hurts…”


    Jason’s heart wrenched instantly.


    Jason’s emotions swirled inside him, a blend of coaxing and pleading, as he tenderly said, “Okay, then


    I’ll stay here with you. Don’t shut me out…”


    Listening to this deep and affectionate tone, Aletta suddenly felt as though her pain was somewhat


    alleviated.


    She nodded, concealing the moisture in her eyes.


    At that moment, Lewis approached with an analgesic, saying, “Let me give you an injection. It’ll make


    you feel better soon.”


    Aletta nodded, only then realizing that she had been clutching Jason’s wrist all this time.


    459 No Navd to Put on a Brave Front Before Me


    She quickly let go, but in the next second, she noticed the red marks left on Jason’s hand and even the


    indentations of her fingernails pressed into his skin.


    Aletta couldn’t help but freeze.


    Noticing Aletta’s expression, Jason quickly added, “It’s okay. Your grip didn’t hurt at all.”


    “But holding on for so long, you must have sore hands. Let me massage them for you.”


    Feeling this intense warmth and care, Aletta’s heart softened, and her nose tingled slightly.


    So this was how gentle Jason could be…


    Soon enough, Lewis administered the painkiller to Aletta.


    Within a short while, she felt some relief coursing through her body.


    Beside her, Jason lowered his head and gently massaged her fingers, his movements delicate and


    cautious.


    It was as if he was handling a fragile ss doll, afraid that even a slight force would shatter Aletta on


    the bed.


    Jock and the others observed this, and their impressions of Jason began to change.


    They couldn’t help but think that the Mr. Hill before their eyes was somewhat different from the rumors.


    The rumors painted him as cold and unfeeling, but towards Aletta, he was incredibly kind.


    No wonder Aletta had been longing for him for so long…


    When Aletta and Jason were together, they silently stood by, ready to handle any unexpected


    situations that might arise.
