Serenity was startled. She did not expect the place where she had met him to be the place where his father had died.
“I’m sorry,” she said. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
“My father’s death was his own doing.” Jackson said in a low voice. “No need to apologize, Sis.”
“His own doing?” Serenity was surprised. She never thought he would describe his father’s death in this way.
“Isn’t it? He fell in love with someone he shouldn’t have. Soon, the person he loved found out he had no more value. He knelt on his knees and desperately begged for her to stay. Even so, it was useless, Finally, he froze to death in the snow.”
The expression he had seemed indifferent. It was as if he was just talking about a perfectly ordinary thing, and even his voice remained calm.
However, there seemed to be a feeling of loneliness around him.
Serenity felt like Jackson was back to how he had been when she had first met him.

The next moment, the young boy was swung away. Then, a piercing pain exploded in his chest.
‘It hurts! It hurts!!
It was so painful. Could anyone save him from his pain? Could someone stop his pain? He felt like he was dying from the suffocating pain…
“Jack! Jack!”
‘Someone is calling! Who is it? Who is calling?
“Jack, it’s fine now. There’s no more pain. I’m here. I’m right here, Jack. It’s fine now…” A gentle voice called out to him anxiously, worried
As her voice reached him, his suffocation and pain faded like a tidal wave. He struggled to open his eyes, and a beautiful and quiet woman soon came into his sight.
