Gregory lay on the hospital bed, with bandages covering his head and body. He had just come out of the emergency room, so he looked very weak.

Imogen and Jasper rushed to the hospital. Seeing the injured Gregory, they were both shocked and horrified.

Carol sniffled and choked up, "B-Because they kept shouting that your dad didn't know how to raise his daughter."

Imogen was stunned. She turned to look at Jasper.
