Chapter 2279

Mila's emotional cry echoed down the entire hallway. Naturally, Jace heard it loud and clear.

He froze for a moment, locking eyes with the middle-aged woman, whose eyes were brimming with tears just a few meters away.

For some inexplicable reason, his heart felt heavy and sluggish, his breathing laced with an indescribable gloom. It was the same feeling he had when he watched the severely injured Bella crawl out of the overturned car.

"Hugh... Is it really you? Hugh!" Normally dignified and composed, Mila now stood sobbing uncontrollably, completely losing her composure. "Hugh... It's your mother! You're still alive... You're really alive!"

Jace quickly extinguished the cigarette on the balcony and disappeared like lightning before Mila could reach him.
