At that crucial moment, Damien threw his cane to the side and reached out to pull her back. Due to the force of the impact, he inclined backward.

Thankfully, he used his other hand to prop himself on the wall so the two didn’t fall on the floor together.

“What happened? Why are you so flustered?”

“My… my grandmother…”

Cherise’s voice was tearful. She looked up at him. “Can you ask the driver to send me to the hospital?”

“Grandma is in the emergency room now…”

She was so anxious that her face was flushed, and her voice was tense. The man was slightly stirred. He nodded. “I’ll send you there.”

Cherise pursed her lips and wanted to say something, but the man had already pressed the bell at the door.

The driver, Mr. Kolson, rushed forward swiftly. “Mr. Lenoir.”

“Send us to the hospital.”

Damien glanced at Mr. Kolson meaningfully.

Mr. Kolson immediately went into the room to take Damien’s coat and silk ribbon for his eyes before quickly grabbing Damien’s wheelchair. He pushed Damien to the private elevator in enormous strides to go downstairs.

Damien waved and signaled Mr. Kolson to drive. “You’re so distraught. Do you think I’ll let you go alone?”

Cherise pursed her lips. “Maybe… you shouldn’t get out of the car.”

With her grandmother’s current state, Sarah would have informed Cherise’s other aunts in addition to her.
