Everyone turned in shock to look at the person who had struck out.
The man was wearing a dark gray coat over a black suit, his tie perfectly knotted, and his straight shoulders made him look even broader and more imposing.
His handsome, slightly wicked face carried a coldness, and his eyes seemed to hold a glimmer of frost that chilled to the bone.

The middle-aged man, hearing this, immediately pointed around the room. "Everyone here saw it! You think you can deny it?" "Uh, what did I cout here for again?" "I need to get swater." "I haven't finished my notes; I should get back to that." "I still have rounds to make." "Wait for me, I'll calong." Within a minute, the crowd dispersed, each person finding an excuse to leave as if they hadn't witnessed anything at all.
In the blink of an eye, only Lucas, Aveline, Annie, and the two middle-aged troublemakers remained in the hallway.
Aveline's mouth twitched slightly as she turned to Annie. "Does it still hurt?" Annie, still dazed, shook her head. "No, it doesn't." "You... you all..." The middle-aged man looked around in disbelief, his face twisted with rage.
Seeing Lucas's distinguished and aloof demeanor, it was clear he wasn't an ordinary person.
"So, you're just throwing your weight around, huh? Even if everyone here pretends they didn't see it, there are still security cameras. The footage will show everything you just did." Either you paytwo hundred thousand dollars or get ready to go to jail!" The man's expression was fierce and threatening.
At that moment, a nurse behind the reception desk suddenly said, "Oh, looks like the cameras are broken. Better call someone to fix them." Lucas raised his eyebrows slightly as he glanced at the man. "No cameras, no witnesses. I could accuse you of intentional exto could and fraud. If that happens, you could be detained for over fifteen days. Should I call the police?" "You... you people are just too much!" The middle-aged woman, seeing such a big sum of money slip from her grasp, was so furious she felt like she was about to explode. But they were just ordinary folks.
Faced with someone of high status, they had no room to resist.

Aveline reached out and gently patted Annie's shoulder. "Don't be afraid, they're gone now." Annie's eyes instantly filled with tears. "Thank you, Aveline. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have known what to do." Aveline gave her a small smile. "I'll
arrange for you to be transferred to another hospital, somewhere re they won't be able to find you. Unti you've recovered, it's best not to see them again." Annie looked at Aveline with gratitude, feeling incredibly lucky to have met her.
Lucas' cool voice cut through the air. "I had no idea you were running a charity now."
Annie immediately turned to look at Lucas. The sight of his handsome, dangerously alluring face made her ΟΠΙ heart skip a beat She quickly averted her gaze, nervously hiding behind Aveline. Aveline frowned and replied, "Didn't you hear? I was the one who hit her, causing her arm to break. Of course, I have to take full responsibility." Annie murmured softly, "No, it waswho ran into you. It has nothing to do with you."
Aveline sighed. "At this point, it doesn't matter who bungped inton whom. What's important now is getting you transferred." X
