Chapter 307
Chapter 307:
Caden remained silent, swiftly exiting and getting into his car.
Dorian, equally baffled, turned to Yolanda.
“What did you do to Alicia?”
Yolanda realized she couldn’t conceal the truth any longer.
Glancing at Caden’s hurried departure, she reluctantly clenched her fists.novelbin
“I was angry at Alicia, so I made her stand outside in the cold.
That was her punishment, her way of apologizing to me.”
Dorian’s brow furrowed.
“Yolanda, it’s snowing and freezing outside.”
“It was just for a little while.
She wouldn’t freeze to death!” Yolanda’s eyes began to tear up.
“Didn’t you bring her here to make amends? I was just letting off some steam, and now you’re upset?”
Dorian replied firmly, “Apologies should be verbal.
How can you treat her life so lightly?”
“She’s not dead.
Why are you scolding me?” Yolanda cried out, feeling wronged, and then ran upstairs.
Dorian made to follow her, but Regina grabbed his hand.
“Did you see how upset Caden looked?”
Dorian had indeed noticed it.
The situation had escalated.
This was not going to be resolved easily.
Alicia was in a dire state when Caden rushed her to the hospital, suffering from severe frostbite and unconsciousness.
The doctor admonished him as they examined her.
“She’s been feverish for hours and exposed to the cold! Young people really need to take better care of each other.”
Caden remembered how frail she had appeared back at the apartment.
He hadn’t realized it at the time.
She had mustered her strength, despite being sick, to offer an apology to a rival, only to endure such harsh treatment.
His heart was heavy with sorrow.
After admitting her to the hospital, she was swiftly taken to a ward.
Ointment was applied to treat her condition, and gradually, her fever began to decrease.
She was still unconscious.
Caden took a seat beside her, gently holding her hand.
His phone buzzed with incoming messages on the table next to him.
Looking at the screen, he noticed messages from the veterinarian.
Upon unlocking his phone, he was confronted with detailed images of injuries.
The images were graphic, displaying swollen, bloodied wounds.
Caden scowled as he scrolled through the photos.
A particularly shocking image showed Cade’s neck, nearly severed—an appalling sight.
For a moment, Caden held his breath.
