Xavier leaned in and whispered a warning in her ear, "I tell you this-if you ever meet him again, I will make both your lives a living hell." Suddenly, Xavier stopped in his tracks when his hand touched something wet. That was when he saw blood on his fingertips.

Panicking, he removed Yvette's hearing aid. "Why is your ear bleeding again?" he asked.

Yvette couldn't hear him at all. She figured it was just more hurtful words, so not being able to hear them was a relief.

Xavier tried again. "Do you have any medication with you?"

Yvette remained silent. Realizing she couldn't hear him, Xavier had no choice but to drive her to the hospital.

When they arrived at the hospital, a doctor gave Yvette treatment for her ear. However, she still couldn't
