Alyssa's voice in his head gradually faded away.

Meanwhile, Jameson clutched a medical report in his study room. His handsface was ashen, his sharp eyes bloodshot.

"Mr. Schmidt, your current health isn't looking good," his private physician hesitated, standing by his side. "The medical facilities on this island are limited. They might not be enough if your condition suddenly worsens. I suggest you go to a proper hospital soon, within this month. Treatment there might help ease your condition."

Thoughts of Alyssa filled his mind, and he broke down, tears streaming as his heart shattered once more.
