Johann's words were not difficult to understand. Nina knew that Jean would be mostly fine as long as he

survived this.

"Thank you." She thanked him. "Oh, give me the receipt. I'll transfer the money to you."

"I've already sent the receipt to Percy," Johann said. It was the same no matter if he sent it to her or Percy.

Nina nodded and said nothing.

Johann said, "Jean was lucky this time around. He was beaten, but they didn't hurt any of his vital organs."

"Those people are used to beating up others. They have experience and won't beat people to death," Nina

said.

"Yeah, but he was beaten so much that he didn't even have the strength to ask for help. He just lay in the

snow. If he still had the strength, he would have hallucinated and taken off his clothes. He didn't because he

was beaten up so badly that he lost all his strength. I heard that he moved the garbage and placed it in front

of him to shield him from the wind. However, when the medical staff arrived, he was half-covered by snow.

Fortunately, the snow last night was not heavy. Otherwise...." Johann hesitated.

If the snow last night was a bit heavier or if those gangsters had not beaten him up so badly and he still had a

little bit of strength, maybe he would be dead.

"He's lucky." Nina smiled weakly. "Dr. Park, you mentioned that bad people would cause trouble for others. Is

this what you meant?"

She hated Jean, but when she knew what had happened to him, she could not help herself from caring.

She was even worried that he would die.

Nina hated this feeling so much. It consumed her affection, sticking to her like a band-aid that she could not

get rid of.

"Don't say that." Johann knew about what had happened to her.

Her brother was a troublemaker.
