Blood streamed down Albert's forehead He touched the blood on his face, then glanced at Damon in astonishment. His emotions quickly shifted from shock to agitation, a fire in his eyes, itching to retaliate.
But in his drunken and injured state, Albert had no strength to fight back. He soon slumped onto the chair, unsure whether he collapsed due to the alcohol or the blow
I was taken aback by it all. Just like Albert, I never expected Damon to step up for me.
"Eliana, this…" Joshua was dumbfounded, looking at the motionless Albert on the chair, lost for words.
"I punched him. You don't have to worry about it." Damon said calmly, grabbing some napkins to clean the alcohol off his hands. His voice had regained its composure, devoid of anger or panic.
Cooper went out immediately to call the staff to manage the situation in the room.
Before long, Albert was helped out, seemingly on his way to the hospital.
