Chapter 345
Trapped in Love
Chapter 345 Youâll Live a Long Life Warmth filled Carolineâs heart. She took the soup and said. âThank you, Jamie.â
Jamie scratched her head, blushing shyly as she sat down. âGetting caught in the rain is bad enough.
Catching a cold is even worse. I donât want you to get sick. Getting injections can be painful, you know.â
Caroline picked up her spoon. âI know, but Jamie, Evan was also drenched in the rain. Heâs in the hospital now. Would you like to go see him?â
The mention of Evan caught Jamie off guard for a moment. After a brief pause, she replied. âHeâll be fine. Boys have strong bodies. Girls are the ones who need more care.â
Hearing Jamieâs words, Caroline could not help but feel a pang of sadness Jamieâs mindset seemed to still be stuck in Evanâs childhood.
Caroline took a sip of the soup, and its warmth spread from her throat to her stomach, soothing her tensed body.
As Caroline continued drinking, Jamie continued to gaze at her âHow great it would be if my son married you.â Jamie suddenly said Caroline paused, and a bitter smile appeared on her face.
It was no longer possible between her and Evan, but she did not want to be too harsh in her words with Jamie.
Caroline tactfully refused. âJamie, Evan will find you a gentle and considerate daughterâinâlaw.â
Jamieâs gaze gradually dimmed. âCaroline, I know Iâm sick.â
Carolineâs heart skipped a beat. She saw the change in Jamieâs expression and said, âJamie, you..â
âMy mind is a mess.â Jamie smiled. âSometimes itâs clear. Sometimes itâs chaotic. But Iâm sure my mind is clear now. Every time itâs clear, I canât help thinking about the past.â
Her words piqued Carolineâs curiosity. However, she did not dare to ask any further for fear of hurting Jamie.
Jamie continued. âEvan has suffered so much. He was forced to separate from me when he was in his teens. Even now that he has grown up and appeared in front of me, itâs likeâweâre strangers. Honestly, I have no feelings for him.â
Caroline frowned slightly. What kind of mindset did a mother have to say she had no feelings for her own son?
Caroline did not understand âJamie, you took care of Evan until he left in his teens. Why wouldnât you have feelings for him?â
âIl someone forced you to give birth to a child, would you have feelings for the child?â Jamie asked.
Caroline could not answer this question because she couldnât imagine such a situation.
However, judging from Jamieâs words, it was possible Draco might have done something like that.
âIâm sorry, Jamie. I donât have an answer to that question either,â Caroline said bluntly.
Jamie took a sip of water. âAlthough I donât have any feelings for Evan, I still feel guilty. Youâre a good girl. If you can take care of him for me, I can die in peace.â
Caroline was shocked by Jamieâs words. âJamie, donât say that. Youâll live a long life.â
Jamie smiled bleakly. âYou should know how torturous it is for a person to carry painful memories.â
Not wanting to argue further, Caroline immediately changed the subject. âJamie. Iâll get Dr. Bailey to accompany you to the park, okay?â
Jamie didnât refuse and nodded. âOkay. You should go to work.â
After escorting Jamie downstairs, Caroline worriedly sent a message to Freya.
Caroline: [Dr. Bailey, Jamie was a little mentally unstable when she was with me just now. Is she like that at home?]
After a while, Caroline received a reply from Freya.
Freya (Well, patients like her who have suffered significant trauma often voluntarily forget memories they want to forget. These memories are deeply ingrained in their minds, and they resurface when they see something or someone specific, causing them to regain their clarity.]
Freya: [Ms. Shenton, Iâll be blunt. In my observation, her moments of clarity are not a good sign. During those times, she also exhibits severe symptoms of depression, anxiety, and even manic episodes.
Additionally, during her episodes, she often mumbles things that are hard for ordinary people to imagine. As for what she said, Iâll compile a report and send it to your phone later.]
