Beyond the Divorce

Atlas gave a brief report to Arthur about the situation. Then, everyone headed to the ICU.

Sure enough, it didn't take long before Trinity was wheeled into the ICU.

Members of the Huffman family also arrived, led by a lean older man. I speculated he might be Trinity's father.

His face was grim as he questioned Jared, "How did it end up like this? Huh? Who did this? You tell me who laid hands on her!"

This older man exuded a formidable presence despite being in his twilight years. He must have been a warrior who led from the front lines when he was younger.

Even at his age, his eyes were sharp and cunning. That gaze demanded respect.

"Preliminary assessment shows the involvement of an organization from the Jitador, a case of mistaken identity," Jared reported, but he only gave an overview.

I wanted to speak up, but Atlas put his arm around my shoulder, signaling me to stay silent. I had no choice but to hold my tongue, but I could not get rid of the ache in my chest.

The older man erupted in anger. "That won't do! He harmed Anson Huffman's daughter. I don't care if it's some damn organization. Find him for me. Since he dared to hurt my daughter, they must take responsibility, mistaken identity or not!

"All injuries are a vendetta against the Huffman family. I won't forgive anyone. You must give me an explanation. She was with you, and yet you let her get hurt like this. Weren't you supposed to protect her?" The older man's anger was palpable, revealing Trinity's importance to him.
