?Chapter 714:


    Marvin chimed in, “Seriously, Mr. Erick Thorpe got himself into this mess. You shouldn’t drag the Hills into your drama.”


    The message was clear: there was no need to call for an ambnce.


    “You, you! Kaiden! How could you side with them against your own family?


    Dad’s not going to forgive you!” Talon stared at Kaiden, filled with contempt.


    Kaiden just leaned back, not bothering to engage.


    Forgive him?


    Since when did he have to concern himself with what Jorge thought of him?


    What a joke!


    Ellie and Baylee escorted Susanna to a high-end private hospital for a check-up.


    The initial results arrived swiftly, showing no harm had been done.


    Ellie and Baylee breathed a sigh of relief.


    However, forplete peace of mind, Susanna was to have aprehensive physical check-up.


    By the time Katharine and the others arrived, Susanna was already stepping out of the exam room.


    With a sparkle in her eyes and a smile, Susanna greeted Katharine and Daniel,


    “I’m okay!”


    Ellie had rushed to share the good news with them.


    The sight of Susanna in high spirits melted their concerns away.


    “It’s good that you’re fine!” Katharine embraced Susanna warmly, her heart going out to her.


    Snuggled within Katharine’s embrace, Susanna looked at Daniel. “Aren’t you going tofort me too? How about a hug?” With a chuckle, Katharine let go of Susanna.

    Daniel, his tension easing, was about to gently touch Susanna’s face when he spotted the blood on his hand. It was from when he had beaten Erick.


    Susanna’s body stiffened. “Did you get hurt?”


    “No, it’s Erick’s,” Daniel replied, allowing her to inspect his hand. Although his gaze seemed distant, there was a softness hidden within.


    A wave of relief washed over Susanna.


    She raised her eyes, her voice tinged with uncertainty. “Are you upset with me?” Caught off guard, Daniel echoed, “Upset with you?”


    “You looked really scary earlier,” Susanna pointed out.


    This was the first time she had witnessed Daniel, who was always calm and dignified, strike someone in person.


    “I’m not mad at you,” Daniel said with a weary sigh. “Susanna, are you being a bit silly?”


    He was angry at himself.


    He was angry that he hadn’t protected her well.
