Chapter 240:

Norah appeared eager to demonstrate her medical expertise to Sean, but as soon as she spoke those words, Jimena passed out from pain.

Norah gave a dismissive smile. In her eyes, Jack and Jimena were a perfect match—equally worthless. She considered them the most ruthless of all. Yet, when the tables were turned, their bravery vanished quicker than anyone else’s.
