He checked Floyd’s condition and knew it was very bad.

Floyd had always dealt with chronic migraines, and this sudden, brutal blow was too much for his aging body to take.
After hitting Floyd with the vase, Wendy’s hands shook. The vase shattered on the floor, and she stumbled back.
But when she met Jensen’s cold eyes, fear washed over her.
“I called an ambulance. It’ll be here in ten minutes at the earliest. The restaurant has an on-site medical team, and I’ve already contacted them,” Jensen said in a low tone.
“Wendy! Our family has had nothing but bad luck ever since we took you in p>
Rage burned in Opal’s chest. Tears welled in her eyes as she looked at Floyd, clinging to life. She stepped forward and slapped Wendy hard across the face.
The slap snapped Wendy out of her stupor. She froze, then touched her stinging cheek.
“This is all your fault! Why did you make me hear the truth p>
Wendy screamed, her eyes red with madness.
She turned and tried to run for the door.
Jensen’s gaze turned cold, and he moved to chase her.
The private room door flew open right then. Leighton stepped in, pinned Wendy to the floor, and twisted her arms behind her back before she could escape p>
“Ah!” Wendy let out a sharp cry of pain.
“Grandpa!” Zora ran into the room quickly.
“Zora… save your grandpa p>
Tears filled Opal’s eyes. Her throat felt tight and raw. She knew Zora had learned medical skills from her mentor, and she was their only hope for Floyd.
Zora wasted no time rushing over to Kian. Her heart sank at Floyd’s critical condition. “Quick, lay Grandpa face down p>
Reed laid Floyd face-down on the sofa carefully.
Zora pulled three needles from her bag right away and placed them on key points across

Floyd’s head one by one.

Wendy’s reckless strike had landed directly on Floyd’s carotid sinus. The injury could leave him brain-dead, or even kill him instantly. Either outcome was unthinkable.
They were running out of time.
“Let me go! Let me go!” Wendy struggled wildly under Leighton’s grip. Her face scraped against the floor, her eyes empty and panicked.
Right after her outburst, two more people rushed into the room-Holden and Anton. They froze the second they saw their mother pinned to the ground.
“Mom p>
They never imagined what a sorry state Wendy was in after just one day.
“Help me! Get me out of here p>
Hope flickered in Wendy’s eyes when she saw her sons, and she called out in a rough voice.
“Mr. Pierce, what has my mother done to be treated like this p>
Anger flashed across Holden’s face. He bent down to pull Wendy up.
The brothers knew Wendy had made many mistakes lately, but they still cared about her. Seeing her pinned and restrained like this made them furious.
“What’s she done? Something that can get your whole family locked up.” Leighton looked up at the brothers, his presence intimidating enough to silence them.
“Let me go! I didn’t mean it! They deserved this!” Wendy twisted and fought harder to break free.
“Be quiet p>
Zora’s firm voice cut through the noise in the room.
“Shut her up p>
Leighton tore a piece of carpet from the floor and stuffed it into Wendy’s mouth.
“Mmph p>
Wendy’s face turned red as the carpet blocked her airway. She stared at Leighton, hatred burning in her bloodshot eyes.
She twisted and thrashed, but her struggles were useless against Leighton’s strength. His gaze

stayed fixed on Floyd, clearly worried.

Zora’s expression was tight and serious, and Leighton could tell Floyd’s condition was unstable.
He was worried about her.
Holden and Anton scanned the room. Cold faces from the Marlow family, broken vase pieces on the floor, a pale Opal, an unconscious Floyd on the sofa, and fresh blood on the ground.
A terrible truth dawned on them.
They stared at Wendy in complete disbelief. They never thought she was capable of something so terrible.
The Marlows ignored them entirely. Every single person in the room focused only on Floyd.
“Get out! Our family will never forgive you for this! We will make you pay!” Opal snapped at Holden and Anton.
She was filled with regret. She’d let her soft heart get the better of her and gone to see this ungrateful woman, and now Floyd had suffered because of it.
Tears filled her red eyes.
Holden and Anton flinched at her furious stare, knowing their family was facing real, irreversible trouble.
They stepped forward quickly, ready to take Wendy away.
Leighton glanced at Jensen. Once Jensen nodded, he let Wendy go.
