“Alright, I understand.


    I’ll go see Grandpa now,” Bryson replied, heading upstairs.


    Meanwhile, in the hospital, Makenna was left reeling from Bryson’s abrupt end to their call.


    She wandered through the corridors, feeling utterly lost.


    Afterpleting all the necessary paperwork, she hurriedly made her way upstairs.


    Just outside the ward, she saw Tyshawn.


    He was a disheveled mess-his tie was missing, his suit shirt was ripped and askew, and his cheeks were swollen and bruised, evidence of multiple ps.


    Dejected, he stood there under the watchful eyes of several burly bodyguards, unable to move.


    Makenna had never seen her son in such a miserable state.


    Seeing the sight of him made her heart ache.


    Furious and clutching the payment slip, she lunged forward.


    “How dare you hit him! How can you do this?” she shouted.


    She tried to reach Tyshawn, but the bodyguards blocked her path, raising their hands to stop her.


    Tyshawn looked up, and a spark of hope flickered in his eyes when he saw his mother.


    “Mom, did you reach Grandpa?”


    Makenna’s anxiety deepened, her expression shifting.


    She stopped iling and said, “I couldn’t get through to him.


    ”


    Tyshawn’s heart sank.


    “Then Bryson…” he began, but Makenna cut him off, shaking her head.


    “He has no intention of meddling in this matter at all,” she said.


    Tyshawn’s eyes were filled with resentment.


    “This was all caused by Hannah.


    Why is he abandoning me now?”


    He struggled against the bodyguards, trying to break free, but they pinned him against the wall, their grip unyielding.


    esperationcing her words as she rushed towards them.


    “Is this all my son’s fault? Doesn’t Melina share any of the me?”


    Makenna’s scream was sharp, piercing the air.


    Despite it being a VIP ward, her outburst attracted attention from the people on the same floor, who curiously peeked out to see what was happening.


    “Why are you so noisy?”


    Amanding voice cut through themotion, silencing Makenna.


    A woman in a ck dress emerged from the ward, her resemnce to Melina striking.


    Anger etched her features as she shut the door behind her and red at Makenna with cold intensity.


    “How are you going to exin today’s incident to me? My daughter is innocent and pure, and now her reputation is tarnished.


    The Glyn family will not stand for it.


    ”


    Makenna trembled at the woman’s words.


    Despite her outward show of strength, Makenna was a woman who crumbled under real pressure and bullied only those she deemed weaker than herself.


    Confronted by a formidable adversary, she would be utterly intimidated.


    Adeline Glyn, Melina’s mother, surveyed Tyshawn’s swollen face with a look of pure malice.Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    “I wonder if you can withstand the fury of the Glyn family,” she said.


    Makenna’s legs grew weak with fear.


    Desperate, she shifted the me to Hannah.


    “It was all Hannah’s doing! She set my son up.


    He was framed!”


    Not everyone was as gullible as Makenna, blindly epting whatever others told her.
