Jackson sighed deeply and placed a hand on Shane’s shoulder. “Shane, it’s disappointing, but I must inform you that it’s a mere coincidence that both of you share the same blood type.”
Which guy had Natalie slept with? How could she have produced a child that looked exactly like Shane and even had the same blood type as him?
Jackson desperately wanted to know what that mysterious man looked like.
Shane swallowed and said thickly, “It doesn’t matter. Even if he isn’t my biological child, I’ll claim him as my own in the future.”
Hearing this, Jackson felt rather stunned. “Shane, don’t tell me you’re planning to pursue Natalie!”
Shane tore up the paternity test report with an indifferent expression.
Jackson gaped at him in disbelief. “Are you being serious?”
“You know how I’m like. If I want something, I’ll do whatever it takes to get my hands on it.”
Jackson grabbed his collar. “Well, what about Jacqueline, then?”
Shane hated it when people treated him like this. He narrowed his eyes and pushed Jackson away. “What does this have to do with Jacqueline?”
Jackson stumbled backward before steadying himself. “Everything!” Fury was written all over his delicate, doll-like features. “Don’t you know that she has feelings towards you?”
Shane patted down his collar and said expressionlessly, “I know, but what about it? I’ve never had any feelings towards her. As for why I’ve always been so unconditionally kind towards her, you should know the reason yourself!”
Jackson snorted loudly. After a while, he bowed his head and said quietly, “But Jacqueline has waited for you for ten years…”
“So what if she has? Does that mean I have to accept her? Besides, you’ve waited for Jacqueline for ten years, and she knows about your feelings towards her. But has she given you a chance? I don’t think so!” Shane shot him an icy look.
Something flashed in Jackson’s eyes. He laughed bitterly and said, “Whatever, let’s not talk about this anymore. I understand what you mean now. I won’t stop you from pursuing Natalie, but you mustn’t let Jacqueline know that you’ve fallen for another woman before she is discharged. I’m afraid she might not be able to take it.”
Shane jerked his chin at him and grunted, which Jackson took to be a sign of his agreement.
Suddenly, Shane’s phone started to ring.
Shane turned around and checked who was calling. Bringing his phone to his ear, he asked, “What now?”
