Chapter 374: We Will Take Care of You

Julian swept a cold glance at everyone.

"If I find out anyone dares to hurt her again, I will repay it a hundredfold!" He took the unsettled Aurora aside and gently wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth. The red bloodstains on her face pained his heart deeply.

"Aurora, why did you stand there and let them hit you?"

"It was my fault to begin with, I dragged Hayden into this. If it weren't for me, he wouldn't have ended up like this," Aurora lowered her head, the night's events overwhelming her, from the eerie old woman to Hayden getting hurt.

Julian, somewhat helplessly, pulled her into his arms.

"Silly girl, it was clearly the Alvarez family's fault, yet here you are, taking all the blame upon yourself."

Aurora remained silent, feeling that who was right or wrong didn't really matter; what was important was that Hayden must be alright.

The emergency room doors swung open, and a nurse wheeled out Hayden.

"Doctor, how is Hayden?"

"He was brought in just in time. We stitched up over twenty cuts, thankfully none to the bone," the doctor removed his mask.

"Will this hand be affected in the future?" Mary asked anxiously.

"The wound is deep, and there will definitely be some impact. He can't exert too much force, but given his status, that won't be much of an issue," the doctor earnestly replied.

Hayden, pale from blood loss, appeared frail, his once pristine white shirt now drenched in blood.

"Hayden, how do you feel? Is it very painful?" Susan quickly squeezed to his side. Hayden scanned the surrounding people but did not see Aurora.

"Aurora..."
