Chapter 91

Alston remained kneeling on the ground. When Regina pushed open the door, just as she did when she entered with Cecilia, she was confronted with his bloodied back. Regina's brow twitched violently, feeling her heart wrench as if squeezed, causing a mist to blur her eyes. "Alston?" Regina strode forward, nearly faltering as she crouched beside him, wanting to examine his wounds but afraid of causing him more pain. Her blood pressure rose, causing dizziness. "Olive, go call two people to help me lift Alston up! Get the medical kit, we need to treat Alston later!" "Okay," Olive replied hastily, rushing out of the study to call the maid. "Mom, I don't need treatment. I won't die," Alston spoke without pause. Regina's anger rose at his unrepentant attitude. She raised her hand, almost slapping Alston's head, but refrained due to his injury. As the maid brought in the medical kit, Gladys followed, carrying a glass of water. Seeing Alston's wounds, her steps faltered, slowly approaching him.
