Chapter 969


    Cedric was quickly rushed to the hospital, where he was promptly taken into the emergency room.


    Upon receiving news of his car ident, his entire family humedly made their way to the hospital


    That night, the entrance to the emergency room was filled with an array of luxury cars, a testament to


    the Laurence family’s presence. Approximately two hourster, the doors of the ER swung open, and


    the Laurence family eagerly gathered around to receive an update.


    The doctor informed them that Cedric had lost consciousness due to a cut on his forehead from the


    shattered windshield, resulting in significant blood loss. Fortunately. there were no major issues with his


    skull or brain However, his spine had sustained an injury, necessitating a month of bed rest.


    Hearing this, the Laurences breathed a collective sigh of relief “As long as he’s not paralyzed, that’s all


    that matters A month in bed isn’t a big deal. It’ll teach him a lesson so that he won’t drive his sports car


    recklessly they remarked scolding Cedric as they annously made their way to his room


    However as soon as they left, the police arrived to question Bernard regarding Cedric’s drunk driving


    and involvement in a hit and run ident


    Meanwhile, Robin was also brought to the hospital He demanded that the Laurences foot the entire bill


    and send someone to take care of him.


    With the police mediating, the Laurences, as the guilty party had no grounds to refuse So, they sent


    Taylor to look after Robin


    However, Robin wasn’t satisfied Out of desperation, Bernard sent Kendrick Laurence, but Robin still


    kicked him out


    Bernard wanted to settle the matter privately, but that depended on Robin’s willingness. So, he and the


    Laurences went into Robin’s room.


    “Pick one‘


    Seeing the room full of Laurences, Robin felt ted. Even his injured arm seemed to hurt less.


    He smirked at the Laurences, his eyes finallynding on Bernard


    “You’ll do


    The Laurences thought Robin was nuts, daring to ask Bernard to take care of him?


    Even Robin’s bodyguard thought he was overstepping


    With his hands in his pockets, Bernard’s eyes shed with a cold light.


    “You better pick someone else”


    He warned Robin, if he was the one to take care of him, he’d show Robin the dark side of society.


    “Pick someone else? Alright, if you say so. I’ll pick someone else.”


    It seemed Robin was just using Bernard as a stepping stone. He agreed and his game suddenly shifted


    to Eleanor….


    “She seems nice enough, let her take care of me”


    Everyone knew that messing with Bernard’s wife was crossing his line Robin sure had some guts.


    But Robin didn’t care, he continued to gesture at Eleanor.


    “Youe here


    Eleanor never expected to be the one picked by Robin. She felt like she was really down on her luck


    “I’m not part of the Laurence family, I have no obligation to take care of you”


    Robin raised an eyebrow looking determined


    “As Bernard’s wife, you’re a Laurence How can you say you have no obligation?”

    Spoiled people always make spoiled demands.


    Eleanor clenched Bernard’s arm, shooting Robin a disapproving look


    “Why don’t you let my husband take care of you?”


    It was incredibly embarrassing for Eleanor, a married woman, to find herself in a position where she


    had to take care of an unmarried man, especially in front of the Laurence family. She couldn’t help but


    feel the weight of the shame and wondered how she would face everyone after this incident


    However, Eleanor was determined not to fall into Robin’s trap “I won’t do it. I only want you to take care


    of me, she firmly stated, refusing to give in to Robin’s stubborn


    demands


    Bernard’s handsome face darkened, resembling a stormy sky. He warned Robin, “Don’t push it!”


    With a slight titt of his head. Robin smirked, testing the limits “if you’re willing to let Cedric go to jail,


    then I won’t push it”


    The Laurence family was ustomed to handling situations where the other party wasn’t severely


    injured. However, this time Cedric had struck Robin, their known enemy. They couldn’t simply let it slide


    The Laurence family members realized the implications of this altercation and their eyes instinctively


    scanned Eleanors face, expecting her to agree with their course of action But just as Eleanor was


    about to step forward andply Bernard pulled her back, preventing her from making a decision.


    “Aidyn, go get awyer”


    He was done dealing with it. They could do whatever they wanted, even if it meant sending Cedric to


    jail. But he would never let his wife deal with it


    Robin, who had the upper hand, was furious that Bernard was no longer ying his game


    “Bernard you’ll regret this!


    As they left the room, Eleanor looked worried, “Drunk driving and hit–and–run is a big deal, you.”


    Bernard cut her off emotionlessly. “He wasn’t seriously injured.”


    “But still


    Bernard pulled her into his arms, “You’re my wife. I won’t let you take care of another man‘


    That would never happen. Not unless he was dead!


    “Let the police and thewyer handle it.”


    Eleanor knew about his strong possessiveness and didn’t argue, “Alright, I’ll listen to you”
