On the other side, at the hospital.
Zachary was rushed to the emergency room overnight, where doctors set and cast his broken right forearm. Afterthe ordeal, he was moved to a VIP ward.

His father, Harley, on the other hand, was seething with anger. He stood in the hospital room with a dark andstormy expression.
"Who dares to lay hands on you?!"

"Zach, how is this related to Neera? How did you end up meeting her?"
Fuming, Zachary spoke as if he had eaten gunpowder, his tone filled with agitation.
"It was a coincidence of course! Do you think I'd purposely go and meet her? That bitch had her sugar daddyattack me, causing me to end up like this!"
Hearing this, Qaylah was furious, and she immediately scolded with a stern voice.

Harley was also infuriated, emitting a strong aura of anger.

He said firmly, "Zach, you rest here and focus on recovering. Don't worry, I won't let them get away with this. I'llgo to the club right now, have them check the surveillance, and find out who was involved! None of them willescape!"
Upon hearing this, Zachary finally managed to suppress his anger.
Qaylah also tried to persuade him, "That's right, Zach. You focus on healing and leave the rest to your father.With him handling it, you can be sure that that bitch and her lover will pay the price!"
At this point, Roxanne nodded in agreement and took the opportunity to show her support, "Auntie Qaylah isright, Zach. I'll stay here to take care of you and keep you company."
Upon hearing this, Harley and Qaylah both looked at her with appreciation, "Roxanne is indeed sensible, unlikethat Neera..."
