However, Jackson wasn’t talking about her physical injuries, but the wounds in her heart.

He wondered how long it would take for her to fully heal from it, or if that was even possible.

Their car stopped right in front of the hospital, where Jackson got out of the vehicle holding her hand.

The doctor was already waiting for them in a special consultation room. They began to run a check-up on Serenity as soon as she arrived.

Thankfully, she had only suffered superficial injuries, and there was nothing to worry about. The redness and swelling on her face would subside in a few days.

After they had wrapped up the examination, a new shirt was placed in front of her.

“Put it on,” urged Jackson.

“Alright.” Her current shirt was torn from the shoulders, so she had to put on something else.

She reached out and grabbed the shirt, but he still refused to let go. Serenity looked up at him with a confused look.

“You’re injured. It’s gonna be difficult for you to change.”

So?
