?Chapter 2276


    Justin would no longer be there to whisper in her ear, "Be, don''t be afraid, I''m here."


    "You little brat... you''re already 26. When will you finally stop making me worry?" Wyatt''s voice was hoarse and gruff. His reproachful voice cracked as tears welled in the eyes of the powerful man who had always been in control of everything.


    "Ash, how could Be, with her excellent driving skills, end up in a car ident?" Axel''s voice tightened with anxiety as he nced at the pale-faced Asher beside him. "I heard it happened on the way to the airport. The weather has been so awful these past few nights. What was she doing going to the airport alone?"


    Asher''s longshes were wet, and his heart felt as though it had been ripped apart, overwhelmed by deep


    SOIIOW.


    Sensing the change in his brother''s expression, Axel asked with concern, "Ash, what''s wrong?"


    "Be went to the airport to chase after Arnold," Asher muttered, as a strong metallic taste of blood filled his


    throat


    Axel froze, his heart sinking. "Arnold went to the airport? Be chased after him? What''s going on?"


    Asher could no longer speak. His tall figure shook in defeat, and he nearly lost his bnce.


    Arnold had left. His little sister got into a car ident because of him, and now she was covered in wounds. Asher had vowed to protect them both, but in the end, he had ruined everything


    Asher turned away, his steps faltering as he left the hospital room.


    Sensing something was wrong, Axel immediately chased after him.


    In the empty hallway, Asher stood facing the wall. He rested his forehead against the cold surface, repeatedly banging his head against it.


    Tears spilled uncontrobly from his eyes, sshing onto the ground.Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    "Ash! What are you doing?!" Axel had never seen his brother lose control like this. He panicked and rushed forward to pull him away, gripping his trembling shoulders tightly. "Tell me what happened! We''re brothers. We''ll figure this out together!"


    "Arnold left..." Asher''s forehead was red from the impact. His eyes were distant, and his voice shattered. "He broke up with me... He''s gone."


    Axel sucked in a sharp breath of cold air in disbelief.


    Inside the hospital room.


    After reviewing Be''stest medical report, Wyatt and his three wives finally felt a slight sense of relief.


    "Mr. Salvador, thank you for stepping in to help. Otherwise, my daughter would''ve been alone in the hospital, and who knows what could have happened?" Wyatt said.


    Though he was puzzled by the ambiguous scene he had walked in on earlier, he still felt it necessary to express gratitude to the man who had helped his precious daughter.


    "Chairman Thompson, you''re too kind. You can just call me Grant. I was only at this hospital for a checkup when I happened to run into Ms. Thompson* Grant''s handsome face was as smooth as fine jade, and he gave a modest smile, exuding an air of grace. "Ms. Thompson and I seem to be connected by fate."


    Wyatt pressed his lips together. If his daughter were single, such words would not have been an issue. But Be already had someone in her life, so hearing that felt a bit awkward.


    Be took a deep breath and nced over at Grant. Coincidentally, Grant also looked at her with a gentle gaze. When their eyes met, it looked like there was some lover''s tension between them.


    "When we arrived, we heard that the person who caused the ident dropped Be off at the hospital and then ran away. Without a word?!" Sasha was furious. "What kind of heartless person does that?! Even if they didn''t want to take responsibility, they should''ve at least apologized to us! Running off like that is considered a hit-and-run! The Thompson family won''t care about a few dors of medical bills, but we deserve an exnation!"


    M bit her lip, her eyes still red. "Sasha, you should be thankful. If they were truly heartless, they wouldn''t have even brought her to the hospital. That would''ve been terrifying


    Celeste furrowed her brows in worry. "Check the surveince footage. After all the suffering Be has endured, we need to find the person responsible. We can''t just let this slide."


    Sasha nodded in agreement. ''Exactly! We can''t let it go! I''ll send the Southern Star Syndicate to investigate. We''ll catch that person in three days, no matter what!"


    "Be, where''s Justin? You''re in this condition, so why isn''t your man by your side?" Wyatt asked anxiously, still clueless about everything that had transpired.


    Wyatt was confused seeing his daughter unconscious for an entire day and night and noticing that the one caring for her was not her boyfriend, Justin, but rather his brother, Grant.


    Be''s heart momentarily stopped. She forced herself to stayposed, suppressing the pain deep within her dark eyes.


    Just as she was trying to figure out how to exin things to her father, rice suddenly feigned surprise and said, "Chairman Thompson, didn''t you know? Mr. Justin and Ms. Thompson have already broken up."
