Jensen tossed the phone to Hansel and muttered, “Tell her the Witch Doctor didn’t show up. I waited all day and passed out from exhaustion. Tell her not to bother me.”

“Yes, sir.”

Hansel swiped to answer, and Sharon’s shrill voice immediately burst through the speaker.

“Jensen! Did you find the Witch Doctor? When’s he going to treat my hand?!”

A flicker of mockery passed through Hansel’s eyes, though his tone remained perfectly respectful. “Ms. Summers, Mr. Luke waited at the black market all day without finding the Witch Doctor. He’s left someone to keep watch. Mr. Luke collapsed from fatigue. Please focus on recovering and don’t add to his stress.”

“What? How can that be? Wasn’t the Witch Doctor at the black market? How did you not find him?! What am I supposed to do without him?! What about my hand?!”

Sharon’s frantic screams came loud and clear, echoing in Jensen’s ears.

His gaze darkened.

The woman who claimed to love him-upon hearing he had collapsed-showed not one ounce of concern. All she cared about was herself. About her hand.

How laughable.

For the first time, Jensen saw Sharon’s so-called love for what it was.

If Natalie had heard he passed out from exhaustion, she wouldn’t have even asked about the Witch Doctor. She’d have been consumed with worry for him.

Some people are priceless. Others aren’t even worth the dirt underfoot.

He used to treat this trash like a treasure.

Jensen cast a single look at Hansel, who promptly ended the call.

“Where to now, Mr. Luke?”

“Back to Grand Pavilion.”
