Obviously, Kate’s answer was not what Sean was looking for. He gazed at her and shook his head with a bitter smile. "I'm out of my mind. What’s the use of asking you?"
Kate knew nothing about him, and he was an idiot to ask Kate such a silly question.
"Why do you think it's useless to ask me that?" Kate put her hands on her waist and looked at Sean with a smirk. "I know everything about you. You fell in love with the same woman your brother loves, but the woman likes your brother. This woman now only has a few days left to live, and your brother is marrying her, so you think your brother is your love rival.
"At the same time, you want to get along with your brother, and that's why you protected him when he was in danger, which led to you getting hurt in the process.
Sean was stunned at Kate’s words but nodded, regardless. "Yes, you're right.” He could not let go of Bonnie, and he also dreaded a good relationship with Jim. That was the problem that caused him to be in a dilemma.
"I don't think that you're plainly normal." Kate placed down the bags she was carrying and looked at Sean solemnly." You were willing to protect him at all costs when you know you and him are in love with the same woman. It's not something a normal person could do."
Jim appeared out of nowhere. He was once a stranger to Sean, and Sean had every right to ignore Jim's existence or even treat Jim as a love rival.
Kate's words shocked him.
In the end, he shook his head and smiled bitterly. "You don't know. I'm ..just a normal guy." With that, he stood up and walked up the stairs, leaving Kate standing and watching him.
She rolled her eyes before she quickly followed after him. "Do you know which room you're staying in? Going up by yourself? Hey, you! Wait for me!"
Elsewhere, in one of the mansions at the heart of Merchant City, Jim was sitting by the bed as he grabbed Bonnie's hand tightly with both hands. Bonnie, meanwhile, was laying on the bed peacefully in a white gown, looking ethereally beautiful.
Jim grabbed her h
maybe you won't, too."
He shut his eyes and lamented, "I don't know if you can hear me now. Bonnie, I wish that you could open your eyes to look at me and at Harvey before you leave. In the next life..."
He smiled bitterly. "Please don't forget us in the next life. I've hurt you in this life, and there's nothing I can do to make it better. If reincarnation does exist, let me search for you in the next life, alright?"
Bonnie was motionless, despite Jim's words...but Jim could have sworn Bonnie’s finger moved when he mentioned reincarnation and the next life, and he warily thought it was just a trick of the mind.
As he felt Bonnie's movement, he excitedly took out his phone and wanted to call the doctor. However, he stopped as he dialed the number.
