When Alex heard that Ethan had woken up, he immediately left the office to check on him. He offered to pick up Dani in the office before proceeding to the hospital, but she preferred if they just met there.
But when he arrived at the hospital, Dani was still on her way. She was caught in unexpected traffic but would be shortly joining them. He did not mind since he wished to discuss something with Ethan.
"Good morning, Ethan." He immediately greeted his father-in-law when he entered the room, seeing Ethan silently sitting on his bed. "It is nice to see that you are finally awake."
However, Alex did not anticipate seeing Gerald laughing with Laura on the other side of the room. His mother-in-law seemed to be growing at ease with her stepson.
Not that he had anything against that, but he could not trust a man like Gerald. He believed this man had something planned against them. He was not ready to let his guard down around him.
