Chapter 105:

By the time Ethan returned to his car and fired up the engine, the menacing group had vanished.

Ethan’s face, dark with fury, charged toward the nearby security booth.

Kallie, gripped by anxiety, trailed the group to the hospital after exiting the vehicle. She was ushered into a ward.

Amara wrinkled her nose and stepped back in disgust. “Stop playing the victim, as if we wronged you.”

But if you’re considering taking matters into your own hands, remember, that’s against the law. I won’t hesitate to report you.”
