Yolanda watched Cassius, who looked so fragile he could hardly stand, feeling a mix of guilt and anxiety twist inside her.

If that were the case, the Sterling family would surely come after her, pitchforks and all.

Panic pricked at her, and she decided it was time to stop pointing fingers. She reached out to help Cassius up.

He tried to support himself, releasing the hand that was clutching his groin, struggling mightily.

In her distress, Yolanda bent down, and to her surprise, managed to lift Cassius off the ground.
