?Chapter 888:


    “Well… I… I don’t feel guilty.” Ellie couldn’t understand why guilt weighed on her.


    “What did you promise me when you went out?”


    She was speechless. Finally, she realized why she felt guilty deep down. Before leaving, he had asked her to behave.


    She had promised to be obedient and calm, and not cause any trouble. But she had broken that promise so soon.


    With a wry smile, Ellie remarked, “I’ve been in fights before. It’s no big deal.”


    Kaiden sneered, “Were you pregnant during those fights?”


    Ellie did not know what to say.


    Kaiden turned to Quincy and said coldly, “Mr. Rollins, care to spar with me?”


    How dare Quincy challenge his wife!


    “Mr. Thorpe, I didn’t intend to fight Ellie. She intervened.” Quincy realized only then that his actions were inappropriate, given Ellie’s pregnancy.


    “So you’re saying my wife was at fault?” Kaiden questioned.


    Before Quincy could respond, Aphrodite interjected, “Kaiden, Ellie attacked me first! It’s all her fault!”


    Baylee regretted not being tougher on Aphrodite moments ago. Kaiden asserted, “My wife couldn’t have been wrong.” Everyone was left speechless.


    With Kaiden’s arrival, Baylee found it difficult to continue. She released Aphrodite, who was crying so hard that her makeup was smudged.


    As Ellie moved to assist Baylee, Kaiden halted her. “Stay put, Ellie! Don’t get on my nerves!”


    “Baylee is hurt…” Ellie murmured softly.


    “Marvin is on his way,” Kaiden assured.

    Hearing this, the youngdy who had organized the party immediately rushed to Baylee’s aid with thoughtful concern.


    Once Aphrodite was free, she threw herself into Quincy’s arms,ining, “My back hurts so much that it feels like my bones are about to snap…”


    Quincyforted Aphrodite for a while, his mind focused solely on Baylee.


    Aphrodite’s hit had been with full force. Did it feel like her bones were breaking when Baylee took the hit for Ellie? He knew Aphrodite well. Seeing her still capable of crying in front of him meant Baylee had shown some mercy.


    Now that things hade to this point, the usual resolution was to let it go.


    At worst, the Rollins and Watts families would be enemies of Kaiden.


    Quincy was ready to take Aphrodite to the hospital at that moment.


    But Kaiden had other ns.


    “Why the rush, Mr. Rollins? I haven’t settled the score with Aphrodite for what she did to my wife and child.”
