It took Jackson half an hour to clean and bandaged Natalie’s wound.

He took off the gloves and heaved a sigh of relief. “Done.”

Shane rolled her dress up, carried her, and placed her on a couch. He then covered her with his blazer before washing his hand at the mini basin in Jackson’s office. “How’s her wound?”

Shane looked at him and briefly told him about the incident.

Jackson was amazed by the story. “She should count herself lucky.”
