Cassius rushed forward, steadying Remington as they stood in the dimly lit stairwell. The man's handsome
features were cold but unmistakably pale.
"Let go, I'm fine," Remington said, shaking off the dizziness and trying to wave Cassius away.
Cassius held on, insisting, "No way, Remi, you need to get checked out. Con!"
He had heard from Cedric that Remington had been in a car accident during a thunderstorm, but he hadn't
sought any medical attention or even rested since. This was a disaster waiting to happen. "Let go!" Remington
frowned, his voice sharp.
Cassius ignored him. Remington's aura was agitated, and he made a move. The next second, Cassius was
slammed against the wall, his cheek stinging, frustration boiling inside him.
"Damnfor meddling!" he cursed, turning around.
But then, his expression changed. "Remi!"
Remington, tall and imposing, suddenly collapsed.
An hour later, Remington was lying in a hospital bed, hooked up to an IV. The doctor diagnosed him with a
concussion and stomach bleeding. He had regained consciousness quickly, now with a grim expression, reaching
to remove the IV needle.
Cassius gently held his shoulder, earnestly persuading him. "Remi, | just checked. Jerleft after a short visit,
and Lizetta's asleep right now. Even if you go there now, it won't make any difference. Just rest and finish these
IVs, get well soon. We still need to follow up on sthings, right?"

Thinking about what was to come, Remington paused, his expression softened, less agitated. "Call Ray in."
Seeing he was finally listening, Cassius left the room to find Ray and then headed towards Lizetta's room.
Upon entering, he found Lizetta wasn't asleep. Yolanda was holding a tablet, and Lizetta was video chatting with
Mrs. Bernice Madden. Mrs. Madden wanted to visit the hospital, but Lizetta gently dissuaded her. The elder was
already worried sick; Lizetta couldn't bear to trouble her further.
Nelson sat beside her, comforting Mrs. Madden. "Elsa needs her rest now; she'll join us once she's better."
Mrs. Madden replied, "Then I'll make lots of goodies for Elsa, and have Tangtang deliver them."
With Nelson's nod of agreement, Mrs. Madden brightened up, gesturing a sleeping pose to Lizetta. "Elsa, rest
well."
Lizetta mimicked the gesture, ending
the call. She glanced at Ca sjusthen

Cassius hoped Lizetta could understand Remington a bit more. If not offer him care, at least not be so cold. 2
