Sophia was already receiving an IV. After the trauma of being kidnapped last night, her mental state was already fragile. Today's events had only worsened it, and fainting was a mild reaction. "Mr. Tudor," Brian called from the doorway.
Lucas stood by the bedside and looked over at him, his eyes filled with a sharp, icy coldness that bore into Brian. Brian felt a chill spread from his feet to his entire body, reaching the depths of his soul.

Brian blinked. So, Maria thought he was right and did well didn't she? Then why was Lucas so angry? Lucas returned to the hospital room.
Aaron had arrived, looking very serious. He handed Lucas a tablet.
"This is all the video footage of m om Sophia's journey hlast night. I've also investigated those men. One of them has a sister-in-law working as a maid for the Tudor family.
