Day Eighty…

~~*****~~

After taking care of Old Man Xu's case, Nathan and Ethan flew to Country J to meet Jane. Cherry gave Hanabi's contact details to Nathan. He had to contact Hanabi to find out where he could find Jane. "Hanabi, this is me, Nathan. I'm here in Country J. I dropped by Tatsumi's place but no one was around. Where can I find Jane?"

Hanabi didn't expect to receive a sudden call from Nathan. She glanced at Jane who was standing next to her. Her attention was still focused on Mia.

'Sigh. Maybe it's a good thing Nathan is here. He can support Jane emotionally.'

"We are here in Sakura District Hospital."

Nathan fell silent upon learning that Jane was in Sakura's hospital. His heart raced with worry, and a sense of urgency gripped him, thinking that something bad had happened to Jane. A mix of concern and anxiety could be seen in his eyes.

"I'm on my way!" Nathan swiftly ended the call, cradling Ethan as he hastily flagged down a taxi.

"Sakura District Hospital. Please drive faster," Nathan commanded the taxi driver.

"Dad, what's wrong? Is Mom sick?" Ethan asked him worriedly when they settled inside the taxi.

Nathan smiled at his son faintly, hiding his negative emotions. "We are going to see Jane."

'I hope she is safe.' Nathan thought to himself.

After half an hour, Nathan and Ethan finally reached the Sakura District Hospital. Hanabi messaged him the floor number and the location of the ICU.

Nathan felt his anxiety intensify with each step he took down the hospital corridor. Ethan was also silent in his arms. His heart raced, and every passing moment seemed to stretch into an eternity as he approached the doors leading to the Intensive Care Unit. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

As he neared the entrance to the ICU, a knot tightened in his stomach, and the uncertainty of Jane's safety pressed heavily on his shoulders. Hanabi didn't disclose any information to him. She just told him to come and see Jane in the ICU.

As he reached the entrance, Nathan's eyes scanned the area, desperately searching for a sign of Jane. And there, standing just outside the ICU room, was Jane herself. Relief flooded through him like a wave, washing away the tension that had built up inside.

"Jane!" Nathan called her.

His voice caught Jane's attention, causing her to turn in their direction. She was surprised to see Nathan, most especially Ethan.

"Nate? Ethan?" Jane's sadness suddenly disappeared and she felt relieved upon seeing the two beloved men of her life.

Meanwhile, Ethan squirmed in Nathan's arms. With a delighted giggle, he wriggled free and darted toward Jane. The sight of his son running into Jane's embrace brought an overwhelming sense of relief and gratitude to Nathan.

"Mommy! I've missed you so much!" Ethan hugged her tight as if he was afraid to let her go.

Jane didn't know what to say. She just hugged Ethan who became a source of her strength. "I miss you too, Baby. I'm glad you are here to see me."

Hanabi smiled and took her leave. She wanted to give them some privacy. Nathan gave her a grateful look before she disappeared from his sight. Soon, Nathan joined Jane and Ethan.

When Jane released Ethan from her embrace, he pulled Jane into a tight embrace. Now, it was his turn to embrace his beloved woman. His arms enveloped her, providing a sense of security that the recent scare had momentarily stolen away. "You scared me to death. I thought something bad happened to you," Nathan confessed, his voice tinged with a blend of concern and affection. The echoes of fear lingered in his words. But soon, the tightness in his chest eased as he inhaled the familiar fragrance of her hair. He missed her a lot.

Jane, held securely in his arms, reciprocated the hug, feeling the warmth and reassurance that Nathan's presence brought. Before she knew it, her tears flowed freely as if a dam had burst, carrying the weight of pent-up feelings that had sought release.

As Jane's sobs echoed in the corridor, Nathan held her with tenderness. The father and son duo didn't expect her to cry like this. "Mommy. What's wrong?" Ethan softly asked Jane. "Dad and I are here. Don't be sad anymore." The young boy comforted Jane, his small hand rubbing her back.

Jane wiped her tears away as she broke the hug. Her hands reached for Ethan, cradling him. "Thank you, Ethan. Mommy is feeling better now because of your presence."

Jane gestured to the ICU's glass window. Both Ethan and Nathan followed her line of sight. "Nate, Ethan… I would like you to meet my daughter, Mia."

Nathan and Ethan were dumbfounded upon recognizing the young patient inside the ICU. "Mia is your daughter, Mommy?" Ethan asked her, feeling a little bit confused.

Jane nodded with a smile. "Yes. She's my daughter. My biological daughter. I hope you will continue to become friends once she recovers. She got into a car accident. She is still under observation."

On the other hand, Nathan lost the ability to speak. He didn't know how he would react to this. 'So Vincent must be the father?' Nathan's heart ached at that thought.

"Mom. Don't worry. Mia will get better. I'll pray for her fast recovery." Ethan continued to offer her some comforting words. "I will always be her friend. I can also be her big brother! She is my little sister now!" Ethan declared to them.

Jane could only smile when she heard that. "Oh, Ethan, you are so sweet."

'How I truly wish, you are also my biological son.' Jane added to her thoughts.

As Jane and Ethan stood by the glass window, observing Mia in the ICU, Nathan instinctively moved closer, wrapping his arms around Jane from behind. In these challenging moments, he pushed aside any personal concerns, focusing entirely on providing comfort and solace to Jane.

"I'm just here for you, Jane," Nathan whispered in her ears. "I'm not going to leave your side."

'I don't care if she had a daughter with Vincent. As long as she chooses me, I'll stay by her side. I'll fight for her.' Nathan thought to himself with unwavering resolve.

"Thank you, Nate. I truly appreciate that."
