"My fam's been all peace and quiet. My daughter-in-law might have gotten into some scraps, but she never raised a hand to us." Hansen said.

Naomi felt guilty, and Mia comforted her sister-in-law by saying, "Naomi, it's actually my fault for not listening to you and heading to the loo. I sneaked off to the banquet hall when you weren't around." Naomi grabbed Mia's hand and said, "Mia, I will never leave you in the lurch ever again."

Mia quickly hugged Naomi and patted her back.

After comforting Naomi, Mia rushed off to find her parents. She said, "Dad, let me check your back."

Aaron replied, "I'm fine."

Mia said worriedly, "My body crashed into you. You must be hurt." She was already teary-eyed.

Knowing about his father-in-law's condition, Andre said, "I'll accompany you to the restroom to check. Mia and mom will wait outside."

Mia nodded and pushed her father to follow her husband to the men's restroom.

Outside, Madison asked her daughter, "Do you have any issues with the Marshal family?"

Mia replied, "Mom, that's a complicated question. Just remember, we should avoid any dealings with the Marshal family in the future. They've got a lot of issues."

After today, probably most businesses would be hesitant to collaborate with the Marshal family. It was one thing to piss off others, but to dare mess with the Cedillo family? Their business prospects might be pretty grim.

In no time, Andre and Mia's father came out. He reassured his wife, "Your dad's okay."

Mia was still worried, she said, "Mom, Dad, you guys go ahead. Please take Dad to the hospital for a check-up. What if he's got internal injuries?"

Andre agreed with his wife's suggestion. He also asked his in-laws to leave as soon as possible. Madison glanced at her husband and said, "Alright."
