"Yes." Isabel nodded.

Reggie gazed at her for a while and saw no sign of deception, so he believed her.

"Rest up, Reg. I'll heal your face in a month," Isabel assured him.

Reggie opened his mouth slightly, overwhelmed with emotion, and couldn't find the words.

"Take it easy for now. This regular ward isn't ideal for your recovery. I'll arrange for you to be moved to a VIP ward," she said while helping him lie down.

Colin's actions were truly harsh. Despite being the head of the company, he had left his son in a regular ward.

"Isa, take this card. It has 50 thousand I saved up," Reggie said, pulling a bank card from under his pillow and handing it to her.

As Isabel looked at the card, she was struck by a wave of sadness.

It was heartbreaking that he had only saved 50 thousand. She remembered that Lillian's Chanel bag from last month cost about that much. the card. I have enough money."

"Reg, you always looked out for me. Now it's my turn to take care of you. Believe me, I can handle it," Isabel said firmly, locking eyes with Reggie.

He tried to say something. But seeing her determined look, he couldn't help but trust her.

"Alright, I'll let you take care of me this time."

Isabel showed a genuine smile.

After spending lunch with Reggie, Isabel returned to the Bennett villa.

As she approached the villa, she saw Xander aggressively kicking a man on the ground.

It was the first time she had seen Xander so fierce and menacing since she arrived at the villa, almost like a demon.

She realized she had let her guard down recently due to Xander's normally calm demeanor.

But who was he? He was the formidable leader who had overthrown his three uncles to become the head of the Bennetts.

Without ruthless methods and decisive actions, he wouldn't have achieved his position.

Remembering how she had joked around with Xander the day before, she shuddered.
