The Second Act 298

Chapter 298 

Hearing the doctor’s reassurance, everyone breathed a slight sigh of relief

At least Jackson was no longer in immediate danger

Can we go in and see him?Lionel asked, still tense, his gaze drifting towards the room

The others also seemed eager to check on Jackson’s condition

The doctor shook his head, refusing. It’s best not to. Wait until he wakes up.” 

At the moment, inside the room, Victor stood by the door while Oneida crouched by the bed, her eyes fixed on Jackson’s pale and weak face

Her eyes were filled with deep, complex emotions, her expression somewhat dazed

She was lost in thought, reflecting on Jackson’s actions over the past few days

She wasn’t a fool. She could sense everything

Jackson’s words to her, the things he did for her, and just now, how he unhesitatingly took a bullet for her, all pointed to one thing, that he liked her

If he was simply fulfilling his duty as a husband, everything he did seemed too much

The warmth in his eyes, his actions, they weren’t fake

Even during their outing to Rainbowia Park, she had felt something

Now, she was even more certain of it

Oneida clenched her fingers, her gaze steady

She had made up her mind. As soon as Jackson woke up, she would ask him directly about his feelings

Just then, the man on the bed seemed to twitch his eyelids

Oneida noticed immediately, her eyes widening in surprise and joy

The man’s long eyelashes fluttered slightly, and finally, Jackson slowly opened his eyes

He woke up much quicker than last time

The first thing he saw was Oneida’s relieved and happy face

You’re awake?Oneida exhaled softly, her face lighting up with a gentle smile

Her eyes sparkled, reflecting his image

Jackson felt a slight daze

Instinctively, he reached out and touched Oneida’s left cheek

Oneida hadn’t expected this sudden move and froze, her expression momentarily stunned

The man’s fingertips were cool and soft

Chapter 298 

I made you worry,Jackson said softly, his deep, dark eyes gazing at her

His voice carried a warmth that was intoxicating

Oneida’s breath caught in her throat, unsure of what to say

Victor, watching from the side, felt awkward

He realized he was the third wheel and decided to quietly slip out of the room, leaving Oneida and Jackson alone

Now, only Oneida and Jackson were left in the room

Oneida’s cheek remained in Jackson’s palm as they silently stared at each other, their locked

Oneida, almost involuntarily, reached out and placed her hand over Jackson’s

Jackson,she whispered

Hmm?Jackson responded softly, his eyes focused on her

You-Oneida’s gaze was complicated as she looked at him

gazes 

Clenching her fingers slightly, she finally mustered the courage to ask, Jackson, do you like me?” 

Like in a romantic kind of way,she added. Not out of duty, or mere admiration.” 

Jackson’s eyes flickered upon hearing this

He pressed his lips together, momentarily silent
