    Ang’s full–body examination waspleted. Although the report was pending, the doctor concluded


    that there were no major issues, aside from the visible p mark on the face.


    As a precaution, he suggested that Ang stay a night in the hospital.


    After the doctor left, Jonathan sat by the bedside. He gazed at Ang like she was a child who had


    erred, and gently inquired, “Are you still in pain?”


    The side of her face that had been struck was swollen, and Ang felt a burning sensation.


    She shook her head, her voice soft as she answered, “It’s much better after I applied the prescribed


    medication. Now, it’s just a little ufortable.”


    Tenderly, Jonathan stroked her head. “Then, rest well.”


    As he rose to leave, she caught his sleeve and stopped him. He turned back, asking softly, “What’s the


    matter?”


    Ang bit her lip, gazing up earnestly. “Are you upset?” She spoke slowly, perhaps to prevent


    worsening her injury.


    Each word was uttered gently, yet they tugged at Jonathan’s heart. He settled back down, sping her


    hand. “Yeah.”


    “I’m sorry.” Ang lowered her gaze, her tone sincere. “I didn’t intend to cause trouble. I feltpelled


    to assist Sarah to prevent…”


    Potential assault.


    Although she could have turned a blind eye, witnessing the situationpelled her to act.


    She understood that self–preservation was key after her rebirth, yet her innate kindness prevented her


    from standing idly by.


    Jonathan’s gaze was profound as he gently remarked, “I’m not upset because you helped others and


    got into trouble.”


    Ang raised her eyes, puzzled. “Then… is it because Ick intelligence? Or that I couldn’t defend


    myself but acted impulsively?”

    In retrospect, she was somewhat fearful. She had consumed a bit too much alcohol at the time, leading


    to her actions.

    Primarily, she assumed that being in a reputable club would mitigate any potential issues, never


    anticipating Howard’s tant disregard for rules.


    Jonathan shook his head once more, a slight furrow in his brow, before stating. “Cassie reached out to


    me for assistance.


    Finally, Ang knew why Jonathan showed up.


    didn’t. His eyes held a hint of reproach. “As your husband, am I not someone you


    “But you can rely on?”


    Others sought his aid in times of peril, so why didn’t Ang?


    Taken aback, she asked, “Are you upset because of this?”


    Was he upset because she failed to seek his help? But they were only allies.


    If it were another matter, it would be eptable, but burdening Jonathan, who was


    preupied with important affairs, with her impulsive actions seemed unjustifiable. He was incredibly


    busy.


    Jonathan remained silent, his expression somewhat uneasy. If he admitted it. he would seem


    petty.


    Observing his demeanor, Ang felt as though she had stumbled upon a revtion.


    Then, she recalled his ailment. She mustn’t allow him to dwell on it.


    Her heartbeat quickened, and–taking advantage of her status as a patient–she blurted, “Jonathan,


    does this mean I can depend on you in the future? For anything at all?


    “If you agree, don’t find it bothersome moving forward. I’m thick–skin you, it’s challenging to shake me


    off. So, consider it carefully.”


    I’m stuck on


    Ang’s voice was clear and slightly jubnt as she gazed intently at him, determined to


    receive an answer.


    Slowly, a smile spread across Jonathan’s face, and he looked pleased. He wanted to reach out and


    pinch her face, but remembering her injury, he gently stroked her uninjured check instead. “Yes, you


    can rely on me.”


    Then, he added, “For anything.”


    Ang was delighted, grinning foolishly. She momentarily forgot about her injury, only remembering


    when she moved and felt the pain.

    She gave Jonathan a gentle smile. “A gentleman’s promise is not to be broken?


    After their agreement, Jonathan turned to deal with the remaining matters. He had someone inform


    Jessica and the others, and they hurried over.


    Among them, Sarah was the most seriously injured. The doctor advised her not to move, but she still


    came to thank Ang.


    Seeing her, Ang quickly got out of bed. “Sarah, what are you doing? Even if you want to thank me


    you don’t need to do it right now. If you want to repay me, take care of your injuries properly”


    Howard did not hold back. Just by looking at the p he gave her, Ang could feel it, not to mention


    Sarah, who had taken several ps from him, and even punches and kicks.


    Although Ang was a bit annoyed, her words were filled with concern, and Sarah understood.


    But if she didn’te to check Ang’s condition with her own eyes tonight, she was afraid she


    wouldn’t be able to sleep well.


    In her usual gentle demeanor, Sarah said, “It’s nothing. I’ll live.”


    Ang sighed. When she first met Sarah, she thought her gentle demeanor was just like. Fanny’s, so


    she didn’t like her at first.


    After finding out that she was James‘ lover but still had Yusof running around for her, Ang’s dislike


    for her grew.


    Butter on, during Sarah’s father’s illness, Sarah’s reminders to her, and what she heard from other


    ssmates, Ang knew that Sarah’s gentleness was genuine and different from Fanny’s


    pretentiousness.


    That was why she helped out at the club.


    “Cassie, what is Howard Sim’s background, exactly?” Jessica was very curious at the moment. “He’s


    really out of control.”


    There were quite a few scions in Riverdon who were spoiled, but someone like Howard, who acted like


    a feudal lord and disregarded thew, was really rare.


    Most people who did dirty things did it in secret. No matter how vicious they were in private, they


    always maintained a reasonable appearance in public. It was really rare to see someone like Howard,


    openly disying such foolish behavior.

    Cassie frowned, thinking for a moment. “I’m not sure about the specifics. I just heard about. him once…


    The other three leaned in, listening attentively..


    Meanwhile, Jonathan had just left the hospital when he received a call from Axel. “Boss.”


    “Speak.”


    “Howard Sim’s left foot and right hand are broken, just like three of his ribs. It’s hard to say about other


    injuries, though. Oliver has a temper, so he might have been a bit too harsh. The others who were


    involved are in a simr state, but we didn’t use much force on those who were just watching.”


    Jonathan remained silent, listening to Axel’s report without a word.
