The Second Act Revenge (Oneida and Jackson) novel Chapter 384

Chapter 384 

Cece stared wide–eyed, her pupils unmoving. A shocking realization welled up from deep in her eyes, freezing her entire body in response to Oneida’s words. 

“You… what did you say?” Still unable to believe it, her lips trembled. “What happened to Jackson?” 

Oneida suddenly let go of Cece’s neck, her vo different. “Dan’t you believe me? Then see for yourself…” 

With that, she opened the door and shoved Cece out into the hallway. 

Cece was shoved into the hallway by Oneida. She staggered and almost fell to the ground. 

“Go on,” 

Oneida followed, she glared at Cece. “Go see what you’ve done. 

Cece’s face was ashen. She steadied herself and walked forward in a daze. 

The two walked into Jackson’s bedroom. 

Victor, who was already there, frowned when he saw Cece suddenly appear. “Ms. Winslow, you….? 

Victor quickly noticed Oneida walking in behind her and immediately understood that Cece had been brought in by Oneida 

Oneida gave Cece a stare, her eyes cold and deep, “See for yourself.” 

With that, Cece raised her eyes and let her gaze drift to the still figure of Jackson nearby. The man lay there, motionless. The light fell on his handsome, chiseled face, making his complexion seem even paler and more fragile. 

Just a while ago, when they last met, he had been perfectly fine. 

Cece stood there, stunned, completely numb to her surroundings. She was overwhelmed by immense shock and sadness, and her eyes turned red. 

“I didn’t… I didn’t mean to… Cece had no idea that those powders would cause such consequences. 

She had believed Jonas’s words, thinking Jonas was telling the truth. But it turned out Jonas had lied to her from the very beginning! 

He never intended to make a deal with her, he just wanted to use her to get rid of Jackson! 

Why did he do this? Wasn’t he Jackson’s brother? Why drive him to destruction? 

Cece had no understanding of the deep–seated feud between Jackson and Jonas, so she couldn’t comprehend why Jonas would go to such lengths to harm Jackson 

Tears streamed down Cece’s face, showing a look of grievance and pity as she looked up at Oneida, shaking her head, “I didn’t know… I didn’t do it on purpose… 

Tears poured down her cheeks. She sobbed while speaking, “I truly didn’t want this for him… I didn’t want to hurt him…” 

Cece regretted deeply. She thought the drug would only confuse him. Who would have guessed…. 

If she’d known it would harm Jackson, she would’ve never dared to use it… But now, it was too late. The mistake had been 

made

Chapter 384 

Tears streamed down uncontrollably as Cece bit her lip, her shoulders trembling violently from sobbing 

Oneida watched everything around her. “Why are you crying?” she asked, her gaze sharp and filled with annoyance. 

Crying at an unacceptable situation and being able to bear it. This was the behavior of the weak. Moreover, it was her mess that led to this. What good did crying do now? Crying wasn’t going to wake Jackson up. 

Oneida’s brows furrowed slightly, her impatience showing. “Crying now won’t solve anything 

Yet, Cece continued sobbing. Victor and the doctor exchanged helpless looks at the sight. 

Suddenly, Oneida reached out and grabbed Cece by the collar, pulling her up in one swift motion. Cece’s crying stopped instantly. Her tearful eyes gazed into Oneida’s intensely, unsure of what to say. 

“If you cry again, I’ll throw you out! Oneida’s eyes narrowed as she delivered the warning. 

Cece bit her lip, wiping away the tears, Sniffling, she didn’t dare make a sound. “So… what should we do?” she asked hesitantly, her voice tinged with confusion. 

“How do we get him to wake up?” Cece asked, her words slow and deliberate. Regret and pain were the only things in her heart at that moment. She desperately wanted Jackson to wake up, to be healthy again. 

Oneida’s gaze lowered, her eyes fixed on Cece. “That depends on you.” 

“Who gave you the drug?” 

Oneida’s voice was firm with a hint of restrained intensity in her hazel eyes. She already had a guess, but she needed confirmation. 

Cece blinked, tears still hanging at the edge of her eyes. T…” 

Jonas once told her never to expose him. But now, with things as they were, she had to tell the truth. “It was… it was Jackson’s brother.” Cece finally admitted, exposing Jonas, 

“Jonas?” Oneida’s eyes narrowed even further. 

Cece nodded vigorously. 

Oneida released her grip on Cece’s collar. Just as she had suspected. It was Jonas. 

Jonas and Claude had disappeared after their last failed attempt, but Oneida knew they wouldn’t give up on the Bane family’s power and wealth. They’d regroup and strike again. They wouldn’t stop targeting Jackson.
