Chapter 189: A Series of Nightmares

Patrick's deep gaze flickered with a hint of surprise, landing on the middle-aged man behind Jane.

If he wasn't mistaken, this seemingly unremarkable man should be Dr. Newton.

Patrick took a step forward, his tone carrying a hint of respect, "Dr. Newton, thank you." sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Rory let out a cold snort, "If you want to thank someone, thank Jane." The usually lofty Patrick felt a bit embarrassed, giving a wry smile.

It seemed that the temperament of miracle workers was a bit peculiar. Otherwise, Rory, with his extraordinary medical skills, wouldn't have hidden away in this icy wilderness without reason.

Considering this, Patrick understood. He was concerned about Old Pansy's condition, "Jane, time is of the essence. Let's set off as soon as possible."

Jane nodded gently, "Let's go!"

She also wanted to return to Guavo quickly and cure Old Pansy. Patrick pulled out his phone, intending to call Morton when Candice, panting heavily, ran over. She went straight to Patrick, grabbed his arm, and spoke softly, “Paddy.”

With disheveled hair and still wearing cotton slippers, she looked somewhat disheveled.

"Candy? What happened?" Patrick was taken aback, his thin lips slightly lifted.

Candice, warily glancing at Jane, tightened her grip on Patrick's arm, her voice soft, "I woke up and couldn't find you. I searched everywhere, only to discover you're here."

Patrick had come out while Candice was asleep. Now, seeing her anxious appearance, he patted her shoulder reassuringly, “Candy, Jane has found Dr. Newton. We need to rush back to Guavo. Since you haven't fully recovered, stay here and rest for a few days. I'll have Morton come to pick you up in a few days."

"No, Paddy, I don't want to stay alone. I want to go back with you." Candice's head shook like a tambourine.

How could she let Patrick and Jane go together? She wouldn't give Jane any chance to get close to Patrick!

"But your health..." Patrick hesitated.

Tears welled up in Candice’s eyes as she looked at him, pitifully saying, “I'm fine. I don't want to stay alone. I'll be scared..."

Seeing Candice portraying herself as a weak and pitiful white lotus in front of Patrick, Jane's expression turned cold, impatiently urging, "Patrick, are you leaving or not?!"

"Let's go," Patrick's expression became stern.

The group boarded Patrick's private plane, flying towards Guavo. "Patrick, is this plane safe?" Nana, sitting next to Jane, looked around uneasily. "It won't have any accidents or be tampered with again, right?"

Jane's previous life-threatening experience at sea had frightened Nana considerably. Now, sitting on Patrick's private plane, Nana was starting to develop a fear of heights.

Patrick sat in the front seat, turning to look at Jane's face with his deep gaze.

Their eyes met, but Jane averted hers.

Patrick's handsome face darkened a bit, and he spoke with some frustration, "Miss Nana, do you think I would make the same mistake twice?"

Morton quickly added, "Miss Nana, rest assured. I've had the plane thoroughly checked; it's very safe, no issues at all."

“That's good to hear,” Nana shrugged.

"Paddy, are you sure everything is okay?" Candice naturally sat next to Patrick, clinging to him throughout the journey like a piece of toffee. “Yeah, it's fine," Patrick said indifferently.

Candice glanced playfully at the man beside her, resting her head on his shoulder. "Paddy, do you know that ever since I fell off the cliff that time, I've been most afraid of standing in high places and also afraid of flying in planes.”

Patrick's heart skipped a beat.

Fear of heights and planes... Jane also had acrophobia.

Candy and Jane had many similarities.

Not sensing the man's peculiar reaction beside her, Candice continued, "But now, with you by my side, I'm not afraid of anything.”

"Yeah," Patrick responded indifferently, his mind elsewhere. "We still have two hours before reaching Guavo. Take a good rest for now." Her body shivering, Candice suddenly snuggled into Patrick's embrace. "Paddy, I feel so cold..."

Candice clung tightly to him, a sensation that made Patrick somewhat uncomfortable.

Gently pushing Candice away, he took off his suit jacket and draped it over her. In a detached tone, he said, "This should keep you warm." Feeling Patrick's distance, Candice's expression changed slightly. Glancing at Jane, who sat expressionless in the back seat, she lifted a sweet and satisfied smile. "Paddy, you're so good to me."

This scene was particularly piercing in Jane's eyes.

Jane simply closed her eyes, out of sight, out of mind.

Yet, involuntarily, scenes from the plane crash when she returned from France with Patrick resurfaced in her mind.

It hadn't even been half a month since then, but thinking about it now felt like a lifetime ago.

What Patrick earnestly said to her at that time, were they sincere? With furrowed brows, Jane took a deep breath, banishing these inexplicable emotions from her heart.

She wondered if Patrick had discovered the mastermind behind the plane crash?

Was it really Winston?

If so, why hadn't she heard any news about Winston?

If not, then who could it be?

Silently contemplating these thoughts, Jane's eyelids grew heavier, finally succumbing to the realm of dreams.

Her sleep was uneasy.

In her dream, she felt trapped in a pitch-black room.

Many people intimidated and beat her.

She wanted to struggle but was powerless.

Suddenly, the scene changed. She was running haphazardly in the mountains.

There were many menacing figures chasing her.

As they were about to catch up, Jane ran forward desperately.

But-

Ahead was a cliff...

She looked down, a pitch-black abyss, unfathomable.

With an ambush ahead and pursuers behind, she had no way out! Just as Jane felt helpless, a tall woman with high heels walked toward her, sneering.

It was Candice!

She approached Jane step by step, her delicate face contorted, red lips opening like a venomous snake. "Paddy is mine, and no one can take him away! Jane, including you!"

As she spoke, Candice reached out, pushing Jane fiercely off the cliff! "Ah! No!!!" The terrifying sense of falling spread throughout her body, and Jane woke up abruptly.
