After the doors were opened, Jackson was the first to come out.

Joyce rushed toward him and grabbed his hand. “Doctor, how is Stanley?”

Jackson was taken aback by her impassioned reaction. Just as he was about to ask who she was, he saw Shane and Natalie behind her. Immediately, he understood that she was Natalie’s friend, so he gently removed his hand from her grip and replied, “Don’t worry. He’s fine. All he has is a few broken ribs and a concussion. He will recover with one or two months of recuperation.”

“I see!” Joyce placed her hands on her chest and smiled.

Natalie came up to her and patted her shoulder. “That’s wonderful, Joyce. It seems that Stanley is doing fine.”

“Yeah.” Joyce rested her head on Natalie’s chest and shed tears of joy.

Natalie gently patted her back to comfort her.

Meanwhile, Shane witnessed the scene expressionlessly. His gaze darkened the moment he saw the spot Joyce buried her face in. An invisible storm brewed in the atmosphere.

When Jackson noticed that, he raised a smirk and had a strong urge to tease that man.

“Shane, I can’t believe that you would get jealous over a woman,” Jackson murmured into his ear.

Without a word, Shane elbowed him in the ribcage.
