“You need to calm down. I’ll call Jonathan. However, when Reginald tried calling, Jonathan’s line was busy. It made sense. With such an emergency happening at the hospital, Jonathan would be busy handling the situation.
“Let’s wait a bit longer. If it’s really bad, we can transfer Sonny to another hospital.”
Lauren felt helpless and could only stand by Grayson’s bed, crying uncontrollably. “My poor Sonny, he’s never been through anything like this.”
Kayla thought her mom was going a bit overboard, but she couldn’t say anything because she knew she’d get scolded. So, she just quietly stood by, offering comfort every now and then.
The more Lauren fretted over Grayson, the louder his cries grew, as though he had been wronged terribly.
Finally. Dominick couldn’t take it anymore. He coldly reminded Lauren, “Stop crying. You’re embarrassing yourself.”
Lauren froze at the coldness in her son’s voice and stared at him in shock. Dominick didn’t pay her any attention and instead turned to Grayson, Grayson, you’re a big boy. Stop crying. Be brave.”
Grayson, already hurt and now being scolded by his dad, felt even more wronged and cried even louder. “But it really hurts! I think I’m going to die from the pain!”
Lauren angrily pushed Dominick away. “What kind of father are you? Sonny’s in so much pain, and you’re still scolding
him?”
It was at that moment that Dominick realized how overly spoiled Grayson had been by his mother, to the point where the boy seemed unable to handle any kind of hardship.
Both of them had been through this traumatic experience, both had been injured. Although Serena’s injuries weren’t as severe as Grayson’s, she was only three years old, and after going through such a terrifying ordeal, she hadn’t cried out or thrown a tantrum.
If she did cry, it was just quietly, tears in her eyes. She would silently wipe them away. She was so well–behaved that it was heartbreaking.
Thinking about how sweet and understanding Serena was, and that she was Paisley and Max’s daughter, Dominick felt a pang in his heart.
It was as though his heart had shattered into pieces, and even when pieced together, there were cracks all over it. It wasn’t fatal, but the pain was unbearable.
So, if back then, he hadn’t been so focused on work, hadn’t neglected Paisley and his family, hadn’t allowed his family to coddle and spoil Sonny so much. Wouldn’t everything be different now?
On the way to the hospital, Paisley almost counted the seconds as she rushed there. Each red light they had to wait at filled her with anxiety. Fortunately, Max’s excellent driving skills brought the car to the hospital in no time.
As soon as the car came to a stop and the locks clicked open, Leo yanked the door open from the outside. Only when Paisley got out of the car did she notice that Leo, along with others, had been tailing Max’s car the entire way.
“Thank you,” she said hurriedly to Max before rushing toward the emergency center without another word.
Max got out of the car as well, tossing the car keys to Leo. T’ll go take a look.”

Leo threw the keys to one of his subordinates and quickly followed Max. “Boss, it’s been ages since you last drove, hasn’t it?” Since Max’s injury, he had rarely driven himself.
Max cast a sidelong glance at Leo before quickening his pace to catch up with Paisley. Leo stood in place for a moment, muttering to himself, “Alright, maybe I’m being too chatty again.”
