Chapter 472 Ethan's Determination
When Nathan left, Mr. Hiroshi confronted his daughter. "Jane, why did you do that? You angered Nathan. He is your sister\'s boyfriend. I want to know your reason." Mr. Hiroshi was interrogating her in a calm and gentle manner.
Mr. Hiroshi would like to understand why Jane acted like that in front of Nathan. She was clearly provoking him.
"Pa. I\'m sorry. Did I offend you as well? Are you disappointed with me?" Jane paused for a moment.
\'I will do something that might cause misunderstanding between us.\' she added in her thought. Her father believed that the person who was in a relationship with Nathan was Abigail. But in fact, she was the one interacting with him.
"No, I\'m not disappointed. I\'m just wondering if you were serious or just kidding." Mr. Hiroshi smiled and patted her shoulder.
"What will you do, Pa… if I\'m serious. I like Nathan. I want to win his heart." Jane was being honest with her father. This was the only way to avoid the misunderstanding between them. She should be clear with her motive and confide her feelings with her father.
Meanwhile, Mr. Hiroshi was caught off guard by Jane\'s honest remarks. \'My two daughters like the same person? What should I do? Should I stop Jane for Abigail\'s sake?\'
"The person you\'ve mentioned to me before is none other than Nathan Sparks. But Nathan is in love with your sister. And your sister loves him. Jane… you have to choose another man. You can\'t be with Nathan. You will be hurt. Because the two are in love."
"No, Pa. Abigail is not in love with Nathan. I can bet my life on this. She loves someone else. That person is Dave Falcon." Jane reassured her father with certainty in her voice.
Mr. Hiroshi could only sigh helplessly. "Alright. If your words are true, then I will believe them. However, the way I see it… Nathan cares so much about your sister. He likes her. You can\'t force him to love you because his heart belongs to someone else. I am worried that you will get hurt in the end."
"I don\'t want you to chase after a man who doesn\'t like you. You deserve better than that. You deserve to find a man who will treasure you… and love you more than you love him." Mr. Hiroshi was speaking from his heart, expressing his love and concern for his daughter.
"If you want… I\'ll introduce you to your Uncle Kazuki\'s son, Christopher. But he is known in our organization as Tatsumi." Mr. Hiroshi proposed to her. He just wanted Jane to avoid complications with Nathan and Abigail.
"Pa…" Jane was at a loss for words. She didn\'t know how she would reject her father properly. "Fine. I\'m going to meet Tatsumi… But I can\'t promise that I will stop wooing Nathan."
\'My life depends on this mission,\' Jane mumbled to herself inwardly.
"Okay. I won\'t force you. But you have to think it over, my daughter." Mr. Hiroshi caressed her face. "By the way, I\'ll contact your Uncle Kazuki first. I\'ll be back in a while." Mr. Hiroshi excused himself.
Jane stayed inside the ward, watching over Abigail. She was waiting for Dave to arrive. She was lost in her own thoughts when Bam-Bam showed up.
"Master!!!" His voice snapped her back to the present.
For the first time, Bam-Bam saw the sparks in Jane\'s eyes the moment she saw him. Instead of glaring at him, Jane faced him with a bright smile. She stood up and closed their gaps, hugging Bam-Bam.
Bam-Bam was surprised by her sudden action. His master was not angry at him anymore. \'What\'s going on here?\'
"Master? Are you sick? Why are you kind to me today?" Bam-Bam asked her suspiciously.
Jane let out a soft chuckle before letting go of Bam-Bam. "Thank you, Bam-Bam. Because of you… my sister survived. If you didn\'t transfer my soul to Abigail, she would have died from falling off the building." She felt so grateful to him.
Bam-Bam was flattered because Jane thanked him and she looked so happy.
"Everything happens for a reason. So keep the faith, Master. See… she is your sister!"
Jane\'s smile suddenly disappeared as she realized something. "Wait! Did you already know that Abigail and I are sisters?"
Bam-Bam looked away, feigning innocence. "Ah, Master… I don\'t know what you are talking about. By the way, I saw Nathan storming out of the room, looking so mad. What happened?" Bam-Bam changed the topic instantly, diverting Jane\'s attention.
"I failed to control myself. I infuriated him intentionally while expressing my real motive. Sigh! I was dying to reveal and say to him that I was Abigail! That I was the woman who made him fall in love again. But I couldn\'t. In the end, I ended up annoying him in front of my father."
"Is there another way? Bam-Bam, I want to live. I have to survive. I can\'t die… especially now that I found another reason to live… my family." Jane was feeling helpless. She didn\'t know how she would start over with Nathan. He hated her so much.
"Sorry, Master. But there is no other way. You can\'t tell him. That\'s the rule. Breaking it will just put your life in jeopardy. You can\'t tell Nathan about your soul swap… otherwise, you will die instantly." Bam-Bam warned her.
Jane exhaled sharply. "I have no choice but to wait. Abigail must wake up."
Bam-Bam nodded his head in agreement. Jane massaged her temples. It was hard. But she won\'t give up.
Little did they know, someone was secretly listening to them. A small figure was hiding at the back of the door. It was Ethan.
\'Oh no. I can\'t tell Dad that Miss Jane\'s soul lived in Miss Abigail\'s body… or else she will die… No! I should be careful with my words from now on. I don\'t want her to die. But I will make sure that my father will realize who the real woman whom he was in love with.\' Ethan swore to himself.
\'Wait… is this also the reason why Mom pretended that she didn\'t know me?\' Ethan\'s eyes sparkled in delight. Now, he wasn\'t hurt and sad anymore. He understood Jane\'s predicament.
\'Mom… don\'t worry. I will help you.\'
