Chapter 1526

Perhaps due to her injuries, Jamie couldn't muster much strength, and her resistance felt as feeble as a kitten pawing at someone.

Jay gently guided her back to the hospital bed. While examining her injuries, his expression turned serious. "All these years, I've attended every class reunion, but I've never seen you. Did you move abroad?" Jamie shook her head slightly. "Life's been messy. Nothing worth mentioning."
