“Help! Come quickly! Sonia was hit!”

There was a ruckus outside, and those inside started to head out in groups.

Candice sensed a sudden chill in Alex’s demeanor before he swiftly made his way outside.

She chose to stay put, observing as the crowd dispersed. With so many already attending to the situation, she

felt her presence was unnecessary.

The abrupt downpour had made the weather gloomy, and the visibility was poor outside, making it challenging

to go out anyway.

The room gradually emptied, leaving only a few people whom Candice didn’t recognize dispersed throughout.

A message came through from Hanley, and she had just finished responding when the others began returning,

filling the room with noise once again.

Candice noticed Sonia. Her face was pale, and her hair was damp and clinging to her face. She looked like a fragile flower, and she stayed close to Alex, gingerly assisted by a few others.

Assuming Sonia had injured her foot, Candice moved aside to allow the group to pass.

Sonia was seated on a couch, her expression still etched with fear, but she managed a weak smile and quietly expressed her gratitude to everyone. “Thanks for the concern, but I’m okay.”

Marc quickly asked, “Are you sure? Perhaps you should visit a hospital for a check–up.”

His concern was palpable. Given that he was the host, he wouldn’t want to be held accountable for any

mishaps.

Sieg chimed in. “With this rain, there’s a risk of infection. Lex, it might be best for you to take Sonia to the hospital.”

His tone was the same as usual but laced with sincere worry.
