~JADEN~My fists tightened against the table, my heart beating so fast, drenched in agony, resentment, and pain. I couldn't help but wonder what was going on.Aliya’s son had been attacked.He was unconscious, under this roof, and no one knew.The security was tight, yet everyone had their way.First, it was Ariella. Now him?I couldn't help but feel devastated and anxious.I didn't know what was happening, but I needed no soothsayer to tell me this was being pulled to trigger me."I'll check in on him. You go take a bath," I muttered, glaring at Aliya, who'd been sitting by her son's side for the past few hours, her eyes pale."You've done enough already. I'd be here." She now looked so pale, her voice barely above a whisper.I shook my head, walked closer to her, and slowly rested my hand on her shoulder before saying, "I'll do the work."She sighed, hurtfully. "I'll take care of him, Jaden. Go sort out your case with Ariella. You left her in the middle of an important discussion."
