After receiving his IV treatment, Nigel's condition stabilized. He slept peacefully at the hospital for the rest of the afternoon. In the evening, Bella escorted him home.

As Bella and Steven were leaving the villa, they ran into Justin, looking disheveled.

"That's true." Justin sighed, feeling guilty.

"Justin." Bella paused, her expression turned serious. "Let's get in the car. I need to talk to you."

The couple got into her car, with Steven sitting in the driver's seat.
