Chapter 2303
"Christopher is an outstanding alchemist and has managed to come up with antidotes to all of the poisons my mother has formulated.The two of them have always worked together this way; one to poison and one to cure."
Jim closed his eyes and let out a bitter chuckle.
"I was so focused on getting Christopher to come to help me that I forgot I had failed to protect two of the most important women in his life.Perhaps this is God's way of punishing me...and I deserve this.
"I never dared to face my feelings toward Bonnie when she was alright, and it took her getting into a fatal accident for me to realize my true feelings.
"I just don't understand.If God wanted to punish me, why did he inflict this suffering on Bonnie and not me..."
Leaning against the headboard and watching the remorseful look on Jim's face, Sean could not help feeling a little bitter himself.He suddenly recalled what Joshua had told him that morning.
Perhaps Joshua was right; perhaps Jim was the only one who could have given Bonnie her happily ever after.
If she was not in her coma, she would probably be delighted to hear Jim say these things about her, would she not? This was the biggest difference between Sean and Jim.
Bonnie loved Jim, and no matter how much he hurt her, as long as he changed his mind, she would still love and accept him wholly.
On the other hand, Sean had never hurt her before, yet he could never win her heart.
"If..."
Sean let out a sigh.
"If Bonnie gets through this, will you treat her better from now on?"
"Of course I will."
Jim lifted his head to stare earnestly at his brother.
"I'm just afraid I might never have the chance to do this."
Sean fell silent upon hearing this.
