The pain on her cheek was fiery, and the injured areas throbbed, but none of it compared to the pain in her heart. "Catherine, dont be afraid. Im here, no one can hurt you," Atticus Finchs tone was as gentle as water. He tenderly embraced Catherine Capulet, his hand lightly patting her shoulder.
"Hehe... Atticus Finch, Im vicious? It seems to me youre blind and your heart is blind as well. She, Catherine Capulet, is not insane at all; shes pretending. My brother is innocent. He never harmed her. She admitted this to me herself!" Jane Eyres voice was fierce as she shouted, tears streaming down her neck, staining the bandages red. "Enough! If you dont shut up, Ill have Lin Jie die in prison!" Atticus Finch roared like an enraged lion, his eyes bloodshot with anger.
"Atticus, I cant bear children for you in this life. I want you to remove Jane Eyres womb. Remove it!" Catherine Capulet screamed in despair, clutching Atticus Finchs collar tightly, her entire being filled with a violent aura.
"Alright, I agree, I agree to everything. Just dont get excited!" Atticus Finch agreed almost without thinking. Seeing Catherine in such a state pained him, and his eyes were filled with compassion.
"Atticus, order the doctors to remove her womb now!" Catherines face was as grotesque as a lunatics at that moment.
Atticus Finch had a fleeting moment of reluctance as he looked at the frail Jane Eyre, but seeing Catherine in the throes of her episode, that hint of reluctance was replaced by cold indifference.
"Someone, take her to the operating room!" As soon as Atticus Finch finished speaking, the bodyguards outside came in.
To Jane Eyre, Atticuss words were as terrifying as the dead from hell. Jane Eyre retreated in fear, until she had nowhere to go, cornered against the wall.
"No, Atticus Finch, I beg you. Lets divorce, Ill stay far away from you. Dont remove my womb, I beg you..." Jane Eyre shook her head incessantly, her eyes filled with panic. She struggled desperately, but her hands were held firmly by two bodyguards, immobilized.
Catherine Capulet laughed maniacally, watching as Jane Eyre was led to her fate.
"Divorce? You wont even dream of it. You will leave when Catherine is well!" Atticus Finch stepped forward, his long, strong hand forcefully pinching Jane Eyres chin. There was a fire burning in his chest, Catherine had been so brutally harmed by her, why should Jane Eyre think of leaving to live a comfortable life? Atticus Finch kept convincing himself.
"Take her away." Just two words, and Jane Eyres right to be a mother was stripped away.
"Atticus Finch, youre truly ruthless."
But no one responded to her. Heartbroken, Jane Eyre cried out, "I curse you... Jane Eyre curses you to be heirless in this life!"
