Chapter 481: Tattoo

Griffin had not yet awakened. Although the car accident did not damage his nerves, it had plunged him into a deep coma. Tina had undergone surgery and had to wait until the anesthesia wore off before she could wake up. For now, all they could do was wait to find out what exactly had happened to Griffin.

Jared received a call from Logan, urging them to hurry home. The incident of Tina and Jared jumping off the mountain at the racetrack had been captured in various videos and uploaded online. Although Jared quickly ordered them to be deleted, Logan had already found out. The pair soon arrived at the Farrell family home, where Marie greeted them first, grabbing Tina's hand, "Tina, are you alright?"

Marie circled Tina several times, checking for injuries. Only when she was certain Tina was unharmed did she relax. Tina hadn't even begun to speak when Marie slapped Jared on the shoulder. "You foolish boy, engaging in such dangerous antics! Go inside and explain yourself to your grandfather! Tina, let's go." With that, Marie led Tina into the house.

Jared stood puzzled. What was he supposed to explain? Inside, Logan, like Marie before, circled Tina and, reassured, turned his attention to Jared. Logan's beard bristled as he approached with his cane, striking Jared several times while berating him, "Foolish boy, if you want to jump, jump alone. Why involve our Tina?"

Jared realized he was supposed to explain this. So, it seemed he could die, but not the precious granddaughter-in-law of the Farrell family. That stung. "With me there, Tina was never in danger," Jared finally said. If he lacked even that capability, how could he be worthy of Tina?

"Hmph, it's because of Tina that you were safe, don't flatter yourself!" Logan scoffed, then took Tina aside to check on her warmly. Jared, left with no rebuttal, just massaged his forehead resignedly. Tina, sitting nearby, raised an eyebrow at Jared.

Jared sat in a corner of the sofa, contentedly watching the scene unfold. It wasn't long before Joshua arrived with Abigail, fresh from the office. Upon entering, Joshua saw Jared leisurely eating fruit on the sofa. His brows furrowed, "I'm swamped with work at the office, and here you are, the chairman, so relaxed. Tomorrow, I'm not coming in; I'm taking Abigail out."

"Sure, you're on leave," Jared responded.

"You rascal." Joshua quickly approached and playfully tousled Jared's hair. Apart from Tina, probably only Joshua could behave like this with Jared. It was clear that Jared and Joshua shared a genuinely close bond. Tina watched silently, her cool gaze deeply etching the scene of the two men, half her face shrouded in shadow under the light, her thoughts inscrutable.
