Carl opened the hospital room door with a gloomy expression.
A female nurse with an unfamiliar face stood at the door, holding a tray. She smiled, "Good day. It's time for Mr. Schmidt to take his medications. It wouldn't be good for his condition if he missed his dose."
"You're not the usual nurse," Carl observed, his eyes narrowing.
"I was just transferred here yesterday. My last name is Thompson. You can just call me Ms. Thompson. The previous staff member met with an accident, and there isn't enough manpower."
Briar Thompson reassured them confidently, "Please don't worry. I've signed a non-disclosure agreement. I won't reveal anything I'm not supposed to."
"Come in," Carl said, still keeping a cold look on his face as he made way for her.
Briar walked in and placed the tray by the side of Jameson's bed. As she was about to touch Jameson, he spoke frigidly, "You're not needed here anymore. My secretary can help me with the injection. You may leave."
Briar was taken aback but obediently left the room.
Jameson couldn't hold himself back anymore. With his shaking left hand, he held his right arm, which was also trembling. He had also lost control of his facial muscles. "Carl… I can't stand it anymore!"
Carl was like an overindulging father who couldn't bear to see his child in any sort of pain. Even though he knew that it would only be a temporary relief, he still retrieved the drug. Feeling conflicted, he injected the needle into Jameson's arm, already marred by countless puncture marks.
After a moment, the tremors stopped, and color gradually returned to his pale face.
Carl sighed in helplessness and dismay. He was conflicted, unsure whether Justin had fulfilled Jameson's wishes or ruined him completely.
"Carl, take this medicine to Dr. Skye Parris for testing. Also, go and find out about the background of that new nurse." Jameson eyed the syringe on the tray with a treacherous gaze.
Carl nodded in understanding. "Got it, Mr. Schmidt. I'll take care of it now."

The readers' comments on the novel: Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper)
I am trying to figure out why an author writes one page and it is suppose to be a chapter and then the author gets the audience hooked on the story and just drags it on. Follow the rules please, and at least give the 7 chapters daily. Two chapters every other day is a waste of time. Or just release the book and give us the option to buy it....
Ughhh…can we get more pleeeease! I’m so into this book and literally check daily for updates but it’s only two pages at most. Can you at least do 4 pages a night 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽...
More chapters please the 7 chapters/day would be nice, TY...
Where can i download the remaining chapters?...
Why are we literally only getting one chapter a day?!? I mean can we at least get 4 or something? Irritating🙄...
