Thankfully, Bella Scott's condition was better than expected.
Even though she was bleeding from a head injury and temporarily lost consciousness, timely surgery saved her life.
What was even more comforting for everyone was that the surgical outcome was great; as long as she received proper restorative care and rest, there would be no lingering consequences.
This allowed the Ford family to breathe a sigh of relief.
Only after the surgery had finished and medical staff had Bella moved into a room next to Hannah Ford's did they find the time to sit down with Aidan Lucas.
"Mr. Cooper, you must give our family an explanation for this!" said Noah Ford, his expression serious as he sat opposite Aidan.
Next to him were Oliver Ford and Albert Landers. Oliver's face looked grim, but as his initial anger gradually faded, a hint of worry appeared on his brow.
In contrast, Albert's peach-flower eyes, resembling those of Bella and Lily Gray, were filled with unbridled fury.
