The alarm blared and instantly woke up the entire Finch Manor.

Yosef's family, who had been keeping an eye on the situation outside, saw Jonathan leaving the study and thought the matter was over, but they perked up upon hearing the alarm. "What happened? What's going on?" Yosef pretended to have been woken up by the sound and stepped out of his room to check. Bella followed closely behind.

Anna and helpers in the manor also began waking up one after another. The medical team arrived just after the alarm rang for a moment.

The previously silent manor was bustling with activity. Everyone was focused on Cyrus' study.

In the room, Rose had put down the photo album. Jonathan returned to the room just as the alarm sounded.

"What happened?" Rose was unaware of the situation outside but guessed that the commotion was related to Jonathan.

The icy coldness in Jonathan's heart melted a little upon seeing Rose. He strode up to her the moment he entered the room. "Jonathan..." Rose was startled by the intensity of his gaze. She called his name, but Jonathan simply tightened his embrace.

His actions made Rose even more worried. She soothingly returned his embrace and asked again, "What's wrong?" "Nothing. I'm taking you out of here." Jonathan reluctantly released Rose and held her hand.

As they walked out of the room, Rose noticed that the originally dim residence was now brightly lit. Many people were on the second floor, all focused on a particular room waiting for news.

As they descended the stairs, she saw medical personnel. She quickly scanned the crowd and noticed that everyone beside Eleanor, Cyrus, and Lizzie were present.

Was it Cyrus?

Rose eyed Jonathan. Sensing her nervousness and concern, Jonathan squeezed her hand in reassurance and diverted her attention.

"We need to get back to the hospital to change the dressing on your forehead."

"Okay." Rose agreed.
