"Is everything alright?" she asked, her voice soft and inquiring. Ethan's expression was tense, his eyes still clouded with thoughts. He turned to her, his voice low and measured.

Victoria understood and remained silent, not pushing the

"Go where?" he asked, his eyes locked on his father's."To your so-called in-laws' house," his father replied, a hint of disdain in his voice.Caleb's expression turned confused. "For what?" he asked, his brow furrowed in concern.His father smiled, placing a reassuring hand on Caleb's shoulders.

"What is it?" his father asked, his voice laced with concern. Caleb winced as his face twisted in pain, the movement exacerbating his injuries."Come, sit down, son," his father said, his tone softening. Caleb sat down on the couch, relief washing over him as he sank into the cushions.His father called out to the maid, "Bring ice, now." The maid hurried in with an ice pack, and they gently placed it on Caleb's face. He winced again, closing his eyes tightly as the cold seeped into his skin."Sorry," his father mumbled, his voice barely audible. Caleb nodded, his eyes still closed. Deep down, he was aware that it was because he was in this situation that's why he settled with his father. He knew his father well enough to understand that if he weren't injured, his father might not have been so willing to listen to him.The father passed the ice to the maid and sat down beside Caleb, his expression softening.

That's when he saw Caleb, who stood there seething with anger. When Caleb saw Ethan, he rushed to punch him in the nose, breaking it. Ethan winced in pain."Fuck, what the hell is wrong with you?!" he barked, while Victoria flinched, her hands flying to her mouth. Caleb wanted to punch him again, but Ethan caught his fist, his eyes blazing with fury."Let go of me!" Caleb growled, trying to wrestle his hand free.
