“Shane, where's Mom now?” asked Natalie hoarsely as she sat on the hospital bed. She stared at the floor lifelessly, her shoulders drooping.

Shane stroked her hair. “In the morgue.”

“I want to see her.” Natalie grabbed his sleeves.

Initially, Shane wanted to refuse her. However, after giving it some thought, he agreed in the end. “Okay, I'll inform Jackson.”

Natalie murmured a response before falling silent.

Casting one last glance at her worriedly, Shane walked out of the hospital ward.

Outside the ward, Jackson was leaning against the wall and smoking. When he saw Shane coming out, he passed a cigarette to him too.

Just when Shane was about to reject it, Jackson withdrew the cigarette. “I forgot that you're undergoing treatment, so you can't smoke or drink. I'll smoke myself.”

Shane glanced at him coldly.

Jackson placed the cigarette back into the box. “Is she awake?”

Shane nodded. “She wants to see Yulia.”

Jackson almost dropped the cigarette in his mouth. Choking on the smoke, he coughed till his face flushed. A while passed before he replied, “What did you say? She wants to see Yulia?”

“Yes.”

“Are you joking? Isn't she afraid of having nightmares? Yulia's appearance when she died isn't exactly pleasant,” said Jackson seriously.

Shane turned his head away slightly and glanced at the door of the hospital ward. “It's fine. That's her mother. She won't be afraid.”
