In the VIP room of the hospital, Jessica's leg had already been treated by the doctor.

The doctor reassured him, "Mr. Hawk, there's no need to worry. We did an X-ray, and thankfully, they're just soft tissue injuries. There's no damage to the bones or tendons. With proper rest, she'll be able to dance again." Once the doctor left, Stanley felt a soft sensation in his palm. He looked down and saw Jessica's small hand reaching up, slipping into his grasp. She held onto him gently.
As he looked down at her, Jessica gave him a faint smile, her pale face showing a touch of vulnerability. "Stanley, I'm fine. Don't worry so much about me." Stanley was so tense, and though she had expected it, a wave of sweetness washed over her heart.

He sat down at the edge of her bed, his voice softer. "But you can't just throw yourself down the stairs, If you hurt your legs, you can't dance anymore. I thought you loved dancing." Jessica reached out and wrapped her arms around Stanley, her soft body pressing against his chest as she murmured in a sweet, almost childlike voice, "Stanley, I was scared you wouldn't wantanymore. Back in that cave, you promised you wantedaround. If that's not what you want anymore, then forget my legs-if you want, I'll give up my life." When she mentioned that cave, Stanley's heart softened instantly. How could he stay mad at her? Stanley pulled her into his arms, "Don't say things like that, I'll never leave you." That was his promise. He wouldn't leave Jessica.

Pouting, she looked up at him playfully. "I know your grandma is unwell, and I understand you can't divorce Wendy for now. But from today on, you two are not allowed to share a bed. Don't think I'm clueless. I know you've been sleeping in the sroom with her. I won't allow it, understand?"
The fact that he had shared a room with Wendy, even shared a bed,, I'm it bothered Jessica. And what made it worse was worse was that he couldn't resist Wendy's beauty and was unable to control his reactions. That wasn't right.
