"You are crying so much as if you are the one that took the bullet. Shouldn't I be the one mocking you, Vera Santos?" 

Vera wasn't sure she heard the voice right. Jack's supposed to be sleeping away like the doctor said, but he's the owner of the voice she just heard. 

She looked at his face and his eyes were clearly open. He looked pale and tired, but his eyes gleamed like the morning sunlight. He's awake! 

"You don't assume I would dîe while you are still alive?" He asked, then added more lowly, "I still want to finish what I started and keep doing that forever," 

Vera blinked in confusion. Her brows furrowed and she gaped at him for a long time before she understood what he was talking about.

"You scared me, Jack!" She grumbled as she stood up to kiss his forehead.

"I'm sorry, darling. Just kiss me on my mouth and I will be alright!" He dimpled playfully.

She bent to kiss him and was stopped by a tap on the door. She turned to see a nurse standing in the doorway. The nurse stepped inside and cleared her throat.

"You have overstayed, Miss Santos. And by the looks of it, Mr. Jackson won't engage in any activity that would be hard on him and there by opening up his wound, that includes sèx!" The nurse said, flashing Vera a warning look.

"You don't mean that, do you?" Jack demanded sharply.

"I mean every word of it. And that should be for the next few months if you want to live. You should count yourself lucky, gentleman!" The nurse can't be more harsher.

"Not if the woman is in control. She can ride…"

Vera covered Jack's mouth before he spilled more than required. How can he have no shame in discussing such things so openly with a woman.

"I will make sure he doesn't get into any activity that might tamper with his health and wellness. Can I at least kiss him now?" Vera smiled charmingly to the nurse.

The nurse frowned and looked away. "Don't waste my time," she mumbled to show her that her spell didn't get through her.

Vera smiled as she kissed Jack's mouth voraciously. He tried to lift his hands and draw her closer for more, but ended up wincing at the pain from the stitches.

"Sorry. I love you, Jack," she said, deciding to say those three words more often to him. 

"I really love you, baby." Jack replied.

"This way, please?" The nurse pushed Vera out with as much control as she could gather.

Vera was escorted to the police car by Harry. She met him in the hallway and he introduced himself, then told her that she was needed for questioning.

The first thing that came to mind was Timothy. She asked a detective lieutenant and was told that he was given a bed in the children centre because of prolonged shock and he is resting as at the moment.

"I'm sorry to bother you just now, but this is really important. Mr. Kenneth George has been taken into custody. It was easy to track him down through one of his surviving men," William Graham started.

He's introduced himself as a new signed detective that was recently appoimtioned to replace the hospitalized investigator.

"Every detail I could get would be good enough to bring down a man like him. You are mostly needed to testify, that's how powerful he is."
