They exchanged wary glances, each person unsure how to react.

Minutes before Alex arrived, Jack had yelled loudly enough for half the hospital to hear him:

"I don't care if it was demons or damn gods who hurt Sophia-I'll kill them all. I'll burn the whole world down if I have to!"

The others chimed in, bravado swelling like a rising tide. "Damn straight! I'll give up my life if that's what it takes."

But the moment they learned Jericho Kane's daughter was behind he attack, every ounce of their fury vanished like smoke in

the wind.

Gods and demons? Sure, they were easy to hate-unseen, distant, nothing more than ideas.

But Jericho Kane was flesh and blood, a man who could wipe out families on a whim.

Suddenly, no one even dared to whisper a word of protest.

Florence and the others grew restless, every one of them understand: messing with the Kane family was suicide.

Even if they were spit on, kicked around like stray dogs, they had no power to fight back.

"You won't have to worry," Alex said calmly. "In two days, Bella Kane will walk in here and apologize to Sophia in person."

Jack laughed with a harsh bark.

"Right. You know who she is? Bella Kane isn't some random nobody. You'll have her apologize? You can't even handle a slap from her, you pathetic loser."

Florence snorted, rolling her eyes.

"You're so full of it. If you're that tough, go track Bella Kane down yourself. Go punch her in the face if you think you're so big and bad!"

The mocking stung the air. In their minds, Alex was nothing but a fool with a death wish.

Suddenly, Clara burst into the ward, breathless. "Sister Florence I've got huge news. Alex-he... he attacked Bella Kane-"

She stopped in mid-sentence, eyes going wide at the sight of Alex. You... what are you doing here?"
