Immediately, Shane's eyes narrowed menacingly as he glared at Jackson.

“Dr. Baker, what do you mean? Is there something wrong with my body?” Natalie turned to address Jackson.

“Not at all. There is nothing wrong with your body.” Jackson dismissed her question with a wave of his hand.

“Then, you...”

“Alright. Can you please wait for a short moment? I have something to discuss with Shane,” Jackson told her with a warm smile.

Natalie shifted her puzzled gaze to Shane. Despite her curiosity, she nodded her head in agreement.

Jackson locked gazes with Shane and signaled the latter to follow him.
