Jim and Floyd followed Ivor. All four of them got into the car and headed for the hospital. An hour later, they arrived at the best hospital in Everpeak. Later, the doctor had Bonnie’s checkup results. As Jim said, her shoulder injury had gotten infected, which triggered the fever.
Even so, Bonnie was strong, and it wasn’t anything serious. They just had to tend to her wound and give her some antibiotics.
Ivor had been worried sick all the way here. He finally felt better after listening to the doctor's advice. Fortunately, Bonnie’s condition wasn’t severe, or he would have lost control of himself.
‘I’ll make everyone involved in hurting her pay when I’m back in Pyralis!’
Jim sighed in relief. He sat beside Ivor and thought back to everything Shane had done. Then, he looked at Ivor and asked, “How are you going to deal with Shane, Ivor?”
A hint of sharpness flashed in Ivor’s eyes. His voice was also filled with coldness when he spoke.
“He’s going to rot in jail for the rest of his pathetic life. That’s a given. However, he won’t know peace before his eventual imprisonment, either!
“With that said, I’ll still discuss this with Bonnie and see how she wants to proceed. Once she has had her fill, I’ll take over and have my turn at Shane.”
“That works. We’ll talk about this again when Bonnie’s come to,” Jim said.
Then, something occurred to him, and he added, “I’ve informed the Everpeak Police Department to send Shane and his gang back to Pyralis. Let’s go back home as soon as she’s awake. After all, Everpeak is hardly the place for healing.”
Ivor nodded. He agreed with Jim’s idea.
“Alright.”
It was nearing evening when she finally opened her eyes. Turning around, she swept her eyes across the room and took in the sight.
‘It looks like Ivor and the others sent me to a hospital. With that said, I feel much better after some rest. Aside from the pain in my shoulder, I’m doing quite well.’
