Reborn Without You Chapter 1176
Jessica had never stopped to consider that Shane had a life of his own, or that one day, he might actually choose to leave.Shane turned to look at her, his gaze unusually heavy."Ms. Reid, I'm only your bodyguard. Protecting you is my job." His voice was steady, though a slight roughness had crept into it. "Even after I'm engaged, if you ever need me, I'll still come whenever you call. My life is yours."Jessica took a slow breath.Looking at him, she suddenly felt completely helpless.How was that not a confession?And yet somehow, it wasn't.Shane had always made her feel completely safe. She knew that when he said his life was hers, he meant every word.But that was as far as he would ever go. She knew that no matter what she said, he wasn't going to change his mind.Silence settled over the car.Jessica leaned back in her seat and closed her eyes. She didn't want to look at him anymore, and she didn't have the energy to keep arguing.A tightness sat heavy in her che

Knowing her father had arranged the whole thing only made it harder for Jessica to accept.Christopher studied her downcast expression, realization slowly settling in. After a moment, he said, "If you don't want Shane to leave, maybe you should do something about it.""Do something about it?" Jessica let out a bitter laugh. "My dad doesn't change his mind once he's made it up. Besides, Shane agreed to the engagement himself. What am I supposed to fight for?"Shane treated her with all the care and devotion of someone who loved her. And yet when it mattered, he drew a clear line between them.The living room fell silent again.Neither of them knew how long they sat there.Eventually, Jessica stood and packed up her medical bag. "I'm leaving the medication here. Take it exactly as prescribed, and come in for your follow-up next week. Try not to let yourself get worked up like this again. I don't want another emergency call."Christopher nodded but said nothing.Jessica turned tow

"Take your medication first."Jessica hurried over to Christopher, pulled the pills from her medical bag, and handed them to him with a bottle of water.Christopher pushed himself upright, took the medication, and swallowed it. It helped a little, but the sharp pain tearing through his body still wouldn't ease."Did something happen again?" Jessica sat down in the armchair across from him. "Your condition is getting harder to control. If this keeps happening, we could lose all the progress we've made."Christopher leaned back against the couch and closed his eyes. For a long moment, he said nothing. When he finally spoke, his voice was rough. "I can't control it."He always believed he was good at keeping his emotions locked down. But when it came to Amelia, that control seemed to vanish.Everything he tried to bury, every emotion he forced himself not to feel, always came rushing back at once until it completely overwhelmed him.Jessica checked his temperature, and her expres

Jessica hit the brakes and pulled onto the shoulder, the tires squealing against the pavement. She went still, her grip tightening around the phone. "Shane's getting engaged?"The news came so completely out of nowhere that she couldn't process it at first.Shane had been by her side for years, protecting her around the clock. He had never given her any indication that anything in his life was about to change.How could he suddenly be getting engaged?"Yeah. It's a good match." Dennis sounded completely casual, as if he were talking about something that had nothing to do with her. "There was no reason to tell you. It's his personal life. Besides, Shane is only your bodyguard because I assigned him to you. I can replace him whenever I want."A wave of irritation rose in Jessica for reasons she couldn't explain. She took a deep breath, forced it down, and let out a cold laugh.Of course. As far as Shane was concerned, there was always a clear line between them. She was his

"No need."Jessica didn't even look back, irritation creeping into her voice. She needed a little space, and the last thing she wanted right now was someone hovering over her.Shane didn't argue. He simply walked around the front of the car and reached for the passenger door.Before he could open it, Jessica hit the gas. The car pulled away fast, leaving him standing in the parking lot.Shane watched until the car disappeared from view, his brow furrowing with concern.A few seconds later, he turned toward another car nearby. It was a backup vehicle he had arranged himself and always kept ready to go.The moment he got behind the wheel, his phone rang.He answered. "What?""Shane, there's trouble at the docks. We need you down here."His expression turned cold. "Handle it yourself."He hung up, started the car, and immediately took off after Jessica.He hadn't gone far when his phone rang again. It was the same caller."Shane, they said... They know where Ms. Reid is. And t

Night after night, Christopher dreamed of losing Amelia and Evelyn. The pain always felt so real that he would wake up feeling as though it had actually happened.His voice had gone hoarse.He still couldn't forgive himself.Amelia looked at him, her lips parting as if she wanted to say something, but she couldn't find the words.Christopher finally said, "It's getting late. Want me to drive you home?"Amelia shook her head. "I drove.""Then be careful getting back."Amelia looked at him. Her emotions were more tangled than ever. They had finally laid everything out between them, yet somehow, the distance between them still felt impossible to cross.Her chest tightened.Was there really no way back for them?Amelia left the villa.Christopher remained where he was.It felt as though something had closed around his heart, leaving a dull ache with every breath.He took a deep breath and tried to get himself under control, but his arms started trembling. His fingers shook s

Amelia found it hilarious. "It's best for women not to be so obsessed about men."She chose not to leave the mall. Instead, she booked a hotel room on the top floor so that all three of them could take a hot shower.Only until the rain finally stopped did they drive off in Amelia's car.-The ne

Winona had always thought that Amelia gave up on her studies and career for the sake of love.Yet now, that didn't seem like the case.Amelia looked down and tightened the grip on her pen. She suddenly thought of something and looked up with a smirk."Well, that's why people should give up on unn

"She's so outstanding at such a young age."Evelyn blushed at the man's praises. She said softly, "You're too kind, sir. Julian is very outstanding, too.""Don't say that! I'm really not that good," Julian said gleefully as he took a step nearer to Evelyn.Heath arched a brow, surprised to see hi
