Chapter 219: Allison and the others rushed Kellan to the hospital, the weight of urgency pressing on everyones shoulders.

After what felt like an eternity, the surgeon emerged from the operating room with reassuring news: Kellan would be fine.

Despite hearing this, Allisons heart remained heavy, her anxiety simmering just beneath the surface.

In life-or-death situations, survival instincts took over.

Allison understood how monumental it had been for Kellan to conquer his own fears and step between her and that knife.

Allison, try not to worry too much, Floyd said, attempting to ease her mind.

Mr.

Lloyds injuries have been addressed, and hell wake up soon.

Floyds voice revealed a mix of surprise and concern he hadnt expected Kellan to go to such lengths for her.

The police finished taking their statements and nodded as they prepared to leave.
