Chapter 144 Zelda Gets Kicked Out

Jasmine spun around in alarm to face Ethan, her voice trembling with a sob, "Mr. Ethan... I-I need to go to the hospital." Without hesitation, she dashed toward the exit.

"I'll come with you." Ethan grabbed his coat, draped it over Jasmine's shoulders, and headed for the garage to get the car. "Get in."

Jasmine wanted to express her gratitude, but fear had seized her throat, rendering her mute.

"Find out which hospital Richard and Justin are at," Ethan instructed as he called Liam. Liam, dealing with some hotel housekeeping issues in Hawaii, confirmed he would track Richard down. "Sure thing, Mr. Ethan."

...

At San Francisco General Hospital's emergency room, Richard's phone lay shattered on the floor, a victim of theft and violence.

Justin, terrified, clung to Richard, his forehead bearing a cut from something sharp. Richard clenched his fists, his anger barely contained.

Those damn Davies had crossed him again. Richard knew when to bide his time, but now they were escalating things.

"Richard, are you still refusing to get Jasmine back?" taunted Zelda, leaning in the doorway with a mocking smile. "I don't consent, and I daresay, who would dare to bandage this little bastard?"

Richard's grip tightened as he glared at Zelda and her entourage of guards. "This is a hospital."

"So, what?" Zelda sneered. Her stint in detention hadn't humbled her; it had only deepened her vendetta against Jasmine, particularly with the scandal involving Jasmine and Ethan fueling her rage on behalf of her sister Harper.

In Zelda's mind, Ethan was destined to marry her sister, and that made them family.

She couldn't possibly side with an outsider over her brother-in-law.

"Make way," said a voice as Dr. Ryan Chen entered in a white coat with a medical kit in hand, approaching Justin's wound with concern. "Young man, are you scared of it hurting?"

Zelda, visibly stomped on by Dr. Chen's disregard, snapped angrily, "Didn't you hear me? Without my permission, no one is treating this child. Who are you?"

Ryan gave Zelda a brief, solemn glance without halting his nimble fingers, which held tweezers and a cotton swab, disinfecting Justin's wound.

Justin clasped his milk-white little hand tightly, staring up at Ryan bravely. "Doctor, will it leave a scar?"

"Caring about looks at such a young age?" Ryan teased with a light chuckle.

"No, it's not that." Justin's tears came in heavy gasps, but he fought to hold them back. "If my mom sees it, she'll...she'll worry."

He didn't want to make his mom worry.
