Everyone was fearful and uncertain about what would happen next. Frank even instinctively back-paddled. When Jared pulled over a chair, he set it down and gently led Ivanna to it, asking, "Are you hurt?"

Ivanna casually replied, "I'm okay."

"Where were you hurt?" Jared patiently asked again, but everyone who heard that question shivered.

Ivanna reluctantly reached for her left shoulder. Although she didn't make a sound, she grimaced, indicating the injury wasn't minor. The guy who punched her was burly, so the impact must've been significant. Jared softly asked, "Who hit you?"

His voice was calm, yet it sent chills down everyone's spine. The bodyguard who threw the punch shifted his heel involuntarily.

Jared gazed at Ivanna's face for a while before turning to Frank, "You said it was a misunderstanding. Now I want to know how it became one."

Frank helplessly looked at his subordinates, but no one dared to step forward. He was at a loss and stammered several times without uttering a coherent sentence.
