Surprisingly, the foreigners they behind them didn't come after them.

Once outside, Yvette gasped for air. As she looked up, Xavier noticed the marks on her face. "What happened?" he asked.

"I'm fine." Yvette roughly understood what he was asking from his lip movements.

Not wanting to discuss anything with Xavier at this moment, she released his hand and walked toward the crowd.

Xavier quickly stepped to her side, grabbing her hand. "Did someone hit you?"

He had been following Yvette these past few days. Today, he had followed along upon seeing her go to the hotel and had witnessed the incident in the hallway.

"Let go of me." Yvette didn't want him to see her in this vulnerable state.

Xavier refused to let go. With his large hand, he grasped her chin, checking the prominent handprint on her face.

Glancing back at the hotel entrance, he noticed two foreign men still watching them. Xavier immediately understood the situation. Ignoring Yvette's resistance, he scooped her up and put her in the car.

He didn't bother speaking when he noticed Yvette had dropped her hearing aid and couldn't hear him.

As he held onto her with one hand, he typed an address with the other and sent it to someone before he made a call.

"Surround this place and find out who laid their hands on Yvette. Don't let even one person escape!"
