ARIEL’S POV

“Miss?” The nurse’s voice brought me back to the present, her expression filled

with concern.

I blinked, focusing on her face as I struggled to push away the lingering thoughts of my prayer. “Yes?” I replied, my voice hoarse with emotion.

“I just wanted to let you know that the man you brought to the hospital is now doing fine,” the nurse informed me, her words bringing a sense of relief. “We’ve taken care of his injury, and he’s resting comfortably now.”

A sigh of relief escaped my lips as I nodded, gratitude flooding my heart. “Thank you,” I murmured, feeling a weight lift off my shoulders. “That’s a relief to hear.”

“What on earth?” I exclaimed, my eyes widening in disbelief.

“Where’s security?” I demanded, my heart pounding with fear and disbelief at the violence unfolding before my eyes.

Just then, a team of security guards arrived on the scene, their presence. commanding attention as they swiftly intervened, pulling the men apart and
