"I don't care what you'll do," Jerome commanded in a cold tone, "but that bastard shouldn't leave this room till the blood transfusion is done!" The treatment room was in chaos, while armed security personnel slowly tightened the circle surrounding Ethan.The atmosphere had become suffocating, doctors stood visibly frozen while the nurses retreated toward the walls one by one.Even the medical equipment continued malfunctioning intermittently as if reacting to the abnormal energy filling the room.Ethan remained standing near the hospital bed, the broken restraints lay scattered across the floor around him, his breathing remained uneven as the fragments of anaesthesia is still pulling him down but he is still trying his best to stand firmly.The Dragon Ring continued radiating unbearable heat against his finger while every muscle inside his body felt alive in a way he had never experienced before.The world around him seemed slower, sharper and clearer.Every heartbeat echoed inside

"Yes," the man nodded with a hesitated face, "he has been watching everything...." "What exactly do you mean he was watching?"The question escaped Hailey's lips almost immediately after hearing the investigator's words from the doorway.Neither gave a proper reply to her, they're just busy with their investigation.The atmosphere outside Charlie's hospital room turned noticeably heavier.Several police officers exchanged glances while one investigator continued examining the surveillance logs displayed on the tablet in his hands.His expression remained serious.Far too serious."This security system records every access request," he explained calmly. "According to the logs, Mr. Charlie Carvendish was connected to the camera feed monitoring Mr. Ethan Carvendish's room."Sally frowned immediately."So what?" she demanded. "Charlie must be worried about Ethan. Maybe he wanted to know what was happening."The investigator slowly lifted his gaze toward her."The connection remained acti

“Ethan is my son, and I have every right to decide what happens to him,” Jerome said coldly.Hailey immediately nodded in agreement.“That's right,” she added emotionally. “We are his parents. You have no right to question us. Ethan is our son, and he is obligated to obey us.”Several officers exchanged glances before one of them stepped forward.“No,” the officer replied firmly. “That argument might have worked years ago, but not anymore. From what we've gathered, your family severed ties with Mr. Ethan long ago. According to multiple statements and records, you repeatedly denied any responsibility toward him. You don't get to disown someone when it's convenient and then claim ownership over them when you need something…. Even if he is your son, still you've no right to put his life in danger, Mrs. Carvendish…. Ms. Scarlett clearly asked us not to spare anyone who touched her husband.” Jerome's expression instantly darkened.Sally immediately lost her temper and shouted angrily. “Wh

"Did you even look at yourself?" Scarlett scolded while folding her arms across her chest. "You look paler than a ghost, and your body is weaker than a child's right now. The only things you're supposed to do are eat properly, rest, and focus on recovering."Her voice broke the peaceful silence inside the private hospital room the following morning.Golden sunlight filtered softly through the windows while the city slowly returned to life outside.For the first time in a long time, the atmosphere felt calm.No police sirens.... No reporters.... No family drama.Only Ethan and Scarlett inside the room.Ethan sat against the hospital bed while finishing breakfast reluctantly under Scarlett's supervision.Across from them stood one of Scarlett's trusted security personnel.The man held a sealed envelope carefully in his hands."We found this among the belongings recovered from your grandfather's private study in old Carvendish Mansion, Mr. Ethan," he explained respectfully.Ethan immedia

"Mr. Ethan, the doctors have completed the final examination and you're officially cleared for discharge."The nurse's gentle voice broke the quiet atmosphere inside the hospital room that afternoon.Sunlight streamed through the large windows while the city skyline stretched endlessly beyond the glass.For several seconds, nobody spoke.The nurse calmly looked at the clipboard in her hand and said, "the prescribed medication should be taken in time, and your body needs more rest for the property recovery." Ethan nodded quietly, and the nurse offered him a gentle smile before turning toward Scarlett."The doctor has also recommended that Mr. Ethan attend a few sessions with a psychiatrist," she explained carefully. "Considering everything he has gone through recently, it would be beneficial in helping him process any lingering trauma and prevent long-term psychological effects."Scarlett glanced toward Ethan briefly before looking back at the nurse."Of course," she replied with a sm
