Charlie then gave Patricia a quick look and hurried out of the hospital.

"Ms. Riddle, it was all a blur. A guy pretending to be a waiter started a fight, and then a bunch of people barged in.

That’s when Ellar got hurt," Patricia said in a somber and heavy voice, her gaze fixed on the emergency room door.

Patricia remembered being irritated that Ellar had tagged along when he had agreed that he would not. The next

thing she knew, he had jumped into the fray. She was busy trying to shield Lulu and in the process, overlooked the

other assailants who were sneaking up on her. But by the time she had gotten a firm grasp of the situation, she saw

that Ellar's arm had already been slashed. That was when she and Charlie quickly neutralized their assailants and

rushed Ellar to the hospital.

Ellar's wound was bad but not crippling.

Still, Patricia could not shake the feeling of guilt as she thought, "If I'd been more alert, Ellar wouldn't have ended up

with a gash in his arm."

Nicole saw the look of guilt on Patricia's face and tried to reassure her, "Don’t worry too much about it. The fault is

on nobody."

After all, it had all happened so fast, and Ellar had gotten hurt trying to protect Patricia. Nobody could be blamed

for

that apart from their assailants, and Nicole was sure Ellar would rather be the one to take the hit than to allow

Patricia to be the one in his place.

While they were talking, the door to the emergency room opened, and the doctor stepped out.

Seeing this, they quickly went up to him. "Doctor, how is he doing?"

"He didn't break any bones, but the cut is pretty deep. He's going to need to be careful for a bit," the doctor

explained.

After sharing a few more instructions with the trio, he ordered the nurse, "Take the patient to his room now, please.

"Will do," the nurse answered and left to prepare the room for Ellar.

As Ellar was wheeled out on a stretcher, Patricia saw the rivulets of blood seeping through the bandage on his arm.

The very sight of that deep gash caused her to bite her lip in anxiety.

"We should head to his room," Nicole suggested, her eyes brimming with concern.

With that said, they hurried to Ellar's room.

Nicole and Jared were hovering over Ellar's bed anxiously as he reassured them, "I'm fine, really. It's late. You guys

should go home."

He did not expect them to be so concerned. He had downplayed his injury, insisting it was minor. After all, he could

not just watch as Patricia ran the risk of being hurt. Thankfully, she was okay, and his injuries were not serious. Now

that it was all over, he did not want everyone to worry too much.

Nicole, observing Ellar's pale complexion, firmly told him," You need to be quiet and rest up. That's what the doctor

ordered."

Ellar flashed her a faint smile in return. "Honestly, I'm fine. It's just a minor wound."

Turning to Patricia, he added, "And you, you should also go home and get some sleep."

He knew that while Patricia had not been physically hurt, she had still struggled through the ordeal of the fight. Ellar

was aware of the numerous tasks and investigations that would soon follow and understood that Patricia would

need all of her strength for what was to come.

"No. I'm not leaving. I'm staying right here," she said firmly as she met his gaze.

She could not bear the thought of leaving Ellar alone in the hospital, especially after he had taken a slash on the

arm while protecting her.

"Really, you don't need to stay. I'm okay by myself, and I can always call a nurse if I need something," Ellar replied.

He was worried that Patricia would be spending the night in the hospital because of him. He would rather she go

home to get some rest after all that she had been through.

However, Patricia was adamant and resolute on staying.

She gave Ellar a meaningful look before addressing Nicole and Jared. "Mr. Johnston? Ms. Riddle? Go on. Head home.

I'll handle things here."

Nicole, understanding Patricia's determination, finally relented, but not before reminding them, "Okay, then. Make

sure to get some rest yourselves."

Then, she turned around, prepared to leave the hospital with Jared.
