Chapter 172
Why did he have to come here instead of staying in Orvin? And he had the nerve to pick a fight with Orion. He must be tired of living. Dorian froze completely when he recognized the familiar voice. He instinctively looked at the masked man standing in front of him. That voice sounded exactly like his cousin; could it be Thaddeus?
“What’s going on here p>
Just then, Alaric came down from the private room upstairs and saw Dorian on the ground with shattered glass bottles nearby. Alaric immediately went over to help Dorian sit up, “You alright p>
“Not really, it hurts like hell p>
Dorian had wanted to play the tough guy, but that kick to his chest had left him breathless. Now, each breath he took was a painful reminder, making him wonder if he had broken a rib.
Evelina saw Dorian turning pale and started to panic, “Alaric, what do we do now p>
“We need to get him to a hospital, what else? Who did this p>
Evelina turned her gaze to Lemira, “The school doctor over there, he went too far p>
Alaric looked up at the masked Lemira and recognized her immediately. He walked over and lowered his voice, “Lemira, do you have any idea who Dorian is? Him getting hurt because of you is going to bring trouble to us.” “But Dorian was the one who started it. Even if we go to the police, we’re not in the wrong p>
Lemira was visibly annoyed. She was originally looking for fun, but encountered that fake angel, which was never a good sign.
Alaric then faced Orion directly, “It was you who laid hands on him, right? You better be ready to face the wrath of the Draven family yourself. Be a man and don’t drag my sister into this p>
Before the Dravens could retaliate, it was crucial to clear Lemira’s involvement.
Lemira stepped in front of Orion, “This has nothing to do with him. He was only trying to protect me p>
“Lemira, are you out of your mind? I’m trying to help you!” Alaric was bewildered, “Do you realize the weight of your actions? This is the Draven family from Orvin were talking about!” en
They were no ordinary high-flyers!
Lemira was displeased, aware of the Dravens’ notorious reputation but unwilling to let Orion bear the burden alone.
Lemira straightened her back, “We’ll hire a lawyer. I refuse to believe that even the Draven family can be completely unreasonable.” “Thinking the Dravens will play fair with you p>
Thaddeus chimed in, “That’s where you’re wrong. Why wouldn’t the Dravens play fair p>
He was all about fairness. If not for keeping his identity a secret, he would have already slapped Dorian himself.
Alaric ignored Thaddeus, focusing
on Lemira instead, “You better keep quiet. I handle this. And your. protector here better show up at the hospital personally to apologize to Dorian p>

After his piece, Alaric helped Dorian up, “Mr. Draven, let’s get you to a hospital. Your health is more important right now p>
Grimacing in pain, Dorian could hardly focus on assigning blame. The pain was overwhelming.
As Dorian passed by Lemira, he snarled, “Just you wait. Ah, it hurts so much. I won’t let this go. Ahhh p>
Evelina deliberately lagged behind,
giving Lemira a glance, “You guys are in deep trouble now! He’s Mrs. Monica Draven’s precious grandson. You’re gonna regret it if you don’t figure out how to apologize to Dorian and earn his forgiveness p>
This time, she determined to make Lemira suffer.
