A voice with ecstasy echoed throughout the street.
It caused many people to glance sideways and look at Medea.
Even Jack whose consciousness was blurred also could not help but stop at this moment and looked up in shock.
Glancing through the crowd, he saw that not far away, a figure was standing in the crowd and was looking at him with surprise written all over her face.
Did she know him?!
Jack was a bit confused. He was not sure if the woman not far away knew him.
But just as he was about to move a step forward while carrying Amanda on his back, unexpectedly, the pause just now instantly let him have difficulty using his strength.
In extreme exhaustion, one might be able to rely on the will to continue to hold on but once one stopped, it would be as difficult as climbing up to the sky to reuse his strength.
His body trembled.
‘Thump’. Jack and Amanda fell to the ground.
Medea was so scared by this scene that her face changed greatly.
Medea hurriedly rushed to Jack and Amanda.
“It’s okay, you’ll be fine.”
Medea directly turned Jack’s body over. At this time, because of the fall, there was blood on Jack’s face. His sanity was still there.
“Do you know me?”
Jack asked weakly and then said, “Help me take good care of Amanda.”
Amanda?
Medea froze for a moment. She looked at Amanda who was unconscious and then nodded at Jack.
With this nod.
Jack’s two eyes closed and he directly fainted.
…
Inside the room, the lights were bright.
However, there was a pin drop silence.
Medea stood worriedly at the side, looking at Jack and Amanda who were unconscious on the bed.
On the side of the bed, the female escort was carefully treating Jack’s wounds.
But, the female escort’s expression was extremely darkened. Even shocks also flashed in her eyes from time to time.
Purl…
From time to time, the female escort placed the blood-stained gauze into the water basin. The blood had stained the water and had long since turned the water in the basin red and bloody.
This scene lasted for nearly two hours.
When the female escort finished sewing up Jack’s last wound and tied the knot, only then did she get up with a head full of sweat and sit on a chair at the side while panting.
“How are they?”
Medea hurriedly asked.
“The little girl and he are all fine.”
The female escort’s words instantly eased the expression on Medea’s face.
Immediately after this, the female escort looked up at Medea, “Medea, this is the most seriously injured person I’ve ever seen in my life who can actually still be alive. Goodness, I really dare not imagine how exactly strong this man’s will is. Although the wound on his left shoulder is not fatal, it will definitely endanger his life after long-term exposure.”
“Hunger, thirst, cold. He has experienced all those life-threatening things in the snowfield but he still can survive. The more critical thing is that during the day, he was still killing people in the streets. This guy is really too terrifying, he is absolutely not like a human!”
Each of her words revealed intense astonishment.
With the female escort’s Bushido level, if she put herself in his shoes, even she also could not survive the same encounter as Jack.
He was simply an invincible guy who could not be killed. It did not make sense at all!
While listening to the female escort’s words that were uttered in shock.
Medea’s eyes flickered but a strange sentiment was surging inwardly.
A feeling of being with the glory was pervading Medea’s mind.
She slowly sat on the edge of the bed and stared at Jack whose body was wrapped in gauze. Although his face had lost a great deal of weight and there were even traces everywhere that were formed upon being ravaged by the wind and snow, in Medea’s view, he was still attractive and she yearned for him very much.
Being somewhat smug, she said while smiling, “Of course, otherwise, how would I only acknowledge him as my spouse in this life!”
As she said.
Medea reached out and gently caressed Jack’s face.
When her fingertips touched his face that chapped everywhere, she felt as if she was touching the bark of a dead tree.
“It was really unexpected that you, whom I’ve been thinking about day and night, would appear in front of me in this way. It’s my honour but I’ve made you experience misfortune for this period.”
Her voice was soft as if she was afraid that if it were too loud, she would wake up Jack who was still unconscious.
The female escort, who was sitting on the chair was completely dumbfounded upon seeing Medea’s look.
