"The patient has an external injury on his forehead where he got cut by glass. We've already treated and bandaged it. He also has a second-degree concussion, but other than that, there aren't any big problems."Upon hearing this, Grace breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, Benjamin was fine. "Thank you, doctor. My son is fine! He's fine." Susan thanked him profusely, feeling like a weight had been lifted off her shoulders. "The patient is awake. We'll be shifting him to a ward soon.""That's good. That's good."After the doctor left, the nurses wheeled Benjamin out of the operation theater.There were bandages wrapped around his head and a few dried streaks of blood on his face. He didn't look as refined as he usually did. Susan dashed over, almost in tears. "Ben, are you alright?"Celia, who had remained quiet until then, also said in concern, "Ben, you scared us! Good thing you're alright."Benjamin looked at them. He comforted them. "I'm alright. Don't worry."Susa

What Benjamin had done today couldn't erase how much he had hurt Grace in the past. "If you have so much time on your hands, then read more books and gossip less. Mind your own business!" Grace snapped at Frederick in a hostile tone.Her stance was clear. Frederick laughed awkwardly. "Alright then, let me go and see how Ben is."With that, he escaped as soon as possible. When Grace came out from the hospital, she got a call from Luke. "I've checked the car. The owner of the Volkswagen is May Elliot, and she was the one driving the car today."Upon hearing that name, Grace snorted. "Her target must have been me." "Yes, Ms. Lewis. But it doesn't seem like a premeditated crime. It seems as if she just committed a crime on the spur of the moment."Grace pressed her lips together. "Who else does she have in her family?""I've also checked that and found that she's an orphan. She grew up in the orphanage, and after that she got into Pamore University based on her own ability.

"She's something. Normal people can't do anything to her." Celia didn't want to provoke Grace. If Benjamin found out, she might not be able to stay in Pamore any longer.Yet Wendy was itching for revenge.She said, "If it hadn't been for her, I wouldn't have lost my job. Now I'm jobless, hanging out in bars every day. Don't you think she's detestable?"Celia nodded in agreement, but she didn't say much. She knew she couldn't get involved in Wendy's feud with Grace."Wendy, if you hate her so much, why don't you teach her a lesson?"Hearing that, Wendy smiled, and her expression changed. Instead of responding to Celia, she said, "You also hate her, don't you?"Celia shook her head. "Even if I hate her, I can't do anything about it. I can only hate her in my heart."Wendy scoffed. "Are you so timid, or are you afraid you can't beat her?"Her words provoked Celia and stirred her anger.Despite having gone against Grace so many times, she had never won once. Deep down, she felt re

Xander was the first to react. Without any hesitation, he immediately turned and headed downstairs.Grace was sitting at a table and scrolling through her phone. Just then, a waiter approached her with a tray."Miss, this is a complimentary drink from our bar tonight. Would you like to try it?"Without waiting for Grace to refuse, the waiter placed the drink in front of her.Grace picked up the glass, but before she could take a sip, Xander's voice interrupted her. "Gracie!"His steps were noticeably hurried. With just a few steps, he reached Grace and swiftly took the glass from her hand.Puzzled, Grace looked at him, and their eyes locked.Xander reached out and pulled her close. They seemed quite intimate to onlookers. In truth, he was using this as an opportunity to whisper in her ear, "The drink is spiked."Grace immediately knew what she should do."Where have you been, Xan? Why did you come so late?"Xander affectionately smiled. "I've been here for a while. This bar i

"Miss, are you feeling unwell?" A waiter approached Celia with concern.Celia rubbed her head and shook it. But when her eyes met the waiter's, the fiery sensation within her intensified.In a daze, she subconsciously moved closer to the waiter. "It's a bit hot."The waiter immediately understood. "There's a hotel next to our bar. Shall I take you there to rest?"Celia nodded, her flushed face growing even hotter. In a semi-conscious state, she followed the waiter and left.Upstairs, Evan's men reported, "Everything is settled, Mr. Martin."Evan looked at Grace and shrugged. "Is there anything else I can do for you, Ms. Lewis?"Grace swirled the drink in her glass, seeming aloof.Smiling, she said, "Thanks, Mr. Martin. Now, let's see how evil their scheme was."Hearing that, Evan couldn't help but shudder.Indeed, the saying was true—never mess with a woman."Mr. Martin, your bar serves good drinks," Grace casually remarked.Raising an eyebrow, Evan replied, "If you like th
