Chapter 101 Luke Wind almost stumbled , his hand flying to his chest .

( Alice ) , what are you saying ? Im saying Im cutting you off .

I hate how you always act like youre doing whats best for me , dictating my life , she spat , her voice tight with anger .

Alice had never used the words cutting you off before ; shed only wanted to get away .

I should have said this sooner , so youd stop acting like my older brother , interfering in everything and pretending its all for my own good .

Its sickening ! Her eyes were cold , glacial .

She hadnt planned on unleashing this venom as she left the family , but theyd pushed her too far .

Luke Wind gasped , his voice shaking .

Alice , I never thought you hated me , hated the whole .

family , so much ! Yes , now you get it , she retorted .

He looked up at her , pleading .

Ill take that as you being upset .

That school nurse , if he had any guts , wouldve taken responsibility and gone to the hospital to apologize himself ! Youre taking this way too far ! she snapped .

So , will you come to the hospital with me now ? Alice glared at her brother one last time before hailing a cab .

She tried calling Jack , but he didnt answer .

A memory from her past life flickered a similar situation with Garrett , where the other party was pressured by the Garrett family to apologize .

Garrett had then humiliated and beaten the guy .

Rage boiled inside her .

She texted Jack : Where are His reply came instantly : At the hospital .

his car , my way She called immediately .Jack , dont go in yet .

Wait for me outside .

Im on Youre coming too ? Jacks voice , slightly gruff , came through the phone .

Hed just gotten out of frown etching itself onto his face .

That victory dinner was quick .

Dont change the subject .

Wait until I get there , she said , and hung up .

Jack looked at his phone , then at the imposing hospital building .

Garrett Gator Casey pulled up and parked .

Little Lemon called you ? Yeah , she wants me to wait outside .

Little Lemons protective , huh ? Luke Wind had contacted Jack earlier , but the threats from the Wind family were meaningless to them .

Their presence at the hospital was solely to deal with Garrett , primarily Luke Wind taking care of his little brother .

Jack stood at the hospital entrance .

You go in .

Ill wait for her .

Alright , Ill make it quick .

Gator strode into the hospital , heading straight for Garretts high end private room .

Garrett was.

lounging in bed , bandages still on , being pampered by Chloe Qin .

Chloe whispered softly , Garrett , when Alice and the others come to apologize , give my brother a break , okay ? Alices still family , after all .

Chapter 101 I know .

As long as Alice shows genuine remorse , I can let it slide .

But that broke ass nurse boyfriend of hers ? Hes gonna pay ! Garretts voice was louder than he intended , a sharp intake of breath escaping him as the pain in his ribs flared .

A smug glint appeared in Chloes eyes .

Thank you , Garrett .

Alice was just manipulated by that nurse , thats why she ran away to live with him .

How could I ever have been attracted to such a … liberal woman like Alice ? Youre so much better , Chloe , Garrett sighed , despite his own promiscuous lifestyle .

He still preferred a clean girl .

Whore you calling liberal ? Gators voice cut through the air , startling both of them .

Hed walked in just as Garrett finished badmouthing Alice .

Good thing Jack wasnt with him , or his cousin wouldve been toast .

Jack was fiercely protective of Alice now .

Garretts eyes widened in fear upon seeing Gator .

He nearly dropped the apple in his hand .

You … you … His cousin ! Had his actions at the bar finally caught up with him ? Was his cousin here to settle the score ? Chloe looked past Gator , seeing ΠΟ one .

Its you ? Wheres that nurse ? Gators tone was calm .

Ill handle this .

He doesnt need to be here .

He didnt need Jack to take down his bratty cousin .

Killing a chicken with a butcher knife ? Ridiculous .

Chloes voice dripped with sarcasm .

You ? Youre not qualified .

That nurse was so arrogant .

Wheres the coward hiding now ? Shut up , Garrett snapped at Chloe .

How dare you speak to him like that ? He wouldnt dare talle to his cousin like that .

Η Chloe , deflated , mumbled , Garrett , why do I have to leave ? Im involved in this too .

She felt disrespected .

Men were always like that ; they didnt cherish you once theyd won you over .

Garrett , exasperated , said , Just go ! Cant you understand simple instructions ? He didnt want Chloe to witness his humiliation at his cousins hands .

He had pride , too .

Chloe stamped her foot , huffing out of the room .

Only the two cousins remained .

Gator pulled up a chair .

Youre quite the player , arent you ? I thought I heard your voice at the bar , but I thought I was wrong .

Why didnt you just take off your mask back then , Cuz ? Garrett asked , confused .

It doesnt concern you .

This injury is your own fault .

Dont drag anyone else into it .

Understand ? Garrett was puzzled .

Cuz , that nurse … is he your friend ? Why else would his cousin bet personally handling this ? Yes .

So , you know what to do .

But I have a broken rib ! Youre not even concerned ! Who is this nurse ? Why are you mediating this for him ? Gator sighed , exasperated .

Youre better off not knowing .

Just keep this quiet , and Ill talk to Mom about your exam scores.

Garretts eyes lit up .

Deal ! His exam grades were his biggest concern .

His cousin was a straight A Chapter 101 student , and he was … well , not .

Alice practically leaped out of the cab upon arriving at the hospital .

She was so focused on getting inside that she didnt see something on the ground , tripping .

Careful , watch your step , Jack said , catching her arm .

His eyes held a touch of exasperation .

in ? Looking up at him , she finally relaxed .

You didnt go No , I waited for you .

He hadnt felt the need to go in ; Gator could handle it .

But her frantic arrival , still smelling faintly of hot pot , changed things .

Relieved , she said , Good .

So , whats so urgent ? You shouldnt listen to my brother .

I already hired a lawyer .

If the Garretts cause trouble , well fight them tooth and nail , she said earnestly .

Jacks gaze was fixed on her , on the determination etched on her face .

Her anxious tone on the phone , her concern for him … his usually stoic heart stirred.

He gently tapped her forehead .

Its not that serious .

Ill handle it .

Youll handle what ? Even with a rich friend like Gator , youre nothing compared to the Garretts in this city .

If they press charges , youre completely outmatched .

Just me ? Why not ? Youre a school nurse ! How can you possibly fight a powerful family like that ? she said , her voice rising in frustration .

Besides , its all my fault .

You got hurt because of me , because of that stupid rich kid Garrett ! to want you Hearing her call Garrett a stupid rich kid , an unfamiliar warmth spread through Jack take responsibility? He chuckled softly .

With your tiny frame , Im taking responsibility for you , whats wrong with that ? she retorted , her cheeks flushed .
