Seething with anger, Felix confronted Matthew, “What’s the meaning of this? My family’s done nothing to you.


    Why are you making life difficult for us?”


    Matthew’s face darkened like a gathering storm.


    His fists clenched as if he were on the brink of losing his cool.


    Sensing the tension, Ste quickly intervened, addressing Felix.


    “Do you think I’m lying in this bed for no reason?”


    Felix, momentarily stunned, finally noticed Ste’s presence.


    In a voice dripping with misced confidence, he averted his gaze and dered, “This has nothing to do with my family.


    Regardless, Matthew needs to exin himself today, or I’m not leaving!”


    Matthew’s gaze was as cold as ice as he retorted, “You should be asking your sister what she’s done instead of hounding me for answers.

    Felix frowned at Matthew’s cold tone, suspicion creeping into his mind.


    Could Joann have harmed Ste again?


    But the severity of Ste’s injuries made him doubt Joann would dare do something so reckless.

    Seeing Matthew’s rising anger, the bodyguards quickly moved to drag Felix and his group away.


    But Felix resisted, his voice rising in defiance.


    “I don’t understand what you’re talking about, and I won’t believe a word without proof! No matter what, you owe us an exnation!”


    Matthew’s voice was as cold as steel.


    “Your sister should arrive at the police station in about ten minutes.


    If you hurry, you might just catch her there.


    Ask her directly if you want answers.


    As for yourpany, it’s finished.


    You’re lucky you still have the breath to shout about it here.


    You can thank Ste for that!”


    Felix barely had time to react before the bodyguards mped him down and hauled him out.Original from N?velDrama.Org.


    Finally, the ward regained its peace.


    Ste slumped back against the pillows, the exhaustion of all that drama settling in.

    “Rest up.


    The doctor said you need it.


    ”


    Ste gave a tired nod and allowed her eyes to flutter shut for a moment.


    Matthew, on the other hand, was restless.


    The doubts gnawing at him needed answers.


    He gazed at Ste’s pale face before he turned to Be.


    “I need to check on something.


    Will you stay with her?”


    Be offered a reassuring smile.


    “Of course.


    I’ll make sure she’s okay.

    Matthew offered a curt nod.


    “I won’t be long.
