Aaron unable to all back the had his team take the perpetrator back to the station while he followed the ambulance to the hospital to ensure Goston and beverly were sate. It also made a point to call Evadne and Thaddeus, letting them know what had happened 

On the ambulance, Beverly, who had been on the brink of suffocating, was now pale, the alarming purple hus fading from her cheeks as she lay wearing an oxygen mask 

“Ms Higgins, you gotta pull through” Gorden implored, his face a patchwork of bruises, paying no mind to his own injuries as he clutched her limp hand in his 

“She’s stable for now, her vitals are holding steady. Don’t worry” Aaron said soothingly, trying to offer some comfort 

It was clear that Gordon’s concern for the girl ran deep, and it wasn’t just because she was a key witness against Byron. 

“Aaron, what are you doing here?” Gordon asked, his thoughts settling after the initial shock 

“Evadne thought it was a pretty big deal having Beverly testify, especially since she’s a minor. She figured her guardians should be notified. She sent me to check on Beverly and her mom while also convincing Beverly’s mother to cooperate with us. After all, the police carry more weight than just a neighbor” Aaron explained, his handsome features shadowed by concern as he thought about the close call. “Who would have thought we’d run into this mess tonight? Seems like someone’s getting impatient” 

Gordon was stunned. 

He had been sent by Thaddeus, and Aaron was dispatched by Evadne. 

Their thoughts and actions were eerily aligned! 

“By the way this is for you.” 

Gordon reached into his dirty slacks, his hand trembling from pain, and handed Aaron a butterfly knife, “You forgot this,” Touched by Gordon’s concern despite his own pain, Aaron accepted the knife, “Thanks, Gordon, really, I owe you one.” 

remember Mrs. Abernathy has one just like it.” 

“Yeah, Evadne and I both received one from Cassius,” Aaron said, a fond memory lighting up his eyes. “I le’s like a knife wizard to us. He’s better with blades than Elvis is with his guitar. When we were kids, while other brothers played games with their siblings, ours played with knives. He loved crafting and collecting them, had over a thousand in his collection alone.” 

Gordon felt a chill down his spine, sweat beading at his nose. 

He vowed to remind Thaddeus, once he was firmly part of the family, that arguments were to be avoided at all costs; words, chosen carefully. Thaddeus had to be cautious. 

“Cassius saw that Evadne and had a knack for knife play, so he not only taught us everything he knew but also gifted us each with a butterfly knife,” Aaron continued, smiling more broadly as he admired the elegant knife. “Evadne’s better with it than I am. I usually don’t show it off, and I’d hate to use it. But tonight was an emergency, and firing a gun in a residential area would have caused more trouble and chaos. Thankfully, I wasn’t too rusty.” 

Gordon’s jaw hung open, as if dislocated. 

Aaron said he was not as skilled as Evadne with the knife, so that made her a beautiful monster! 

Ashbourne Hospital. 

Evadne and Thaddeus rushed over as soon as they got the news and took charge of the situation. 

Thanks to the timely rescue, Beverly was out of critical danger and had been moved to a regular ward. Aside from a few bruises on his face and a broken arm, Gordon was fine and was staying in the room next door to Beverly

But he was far from relaxed. As soon as his bones were set, he hurried over to check on the girl, his concern palpable. Back at the station, Aaron immediately set out to deal with the vicious criminal who had attempted to murder a witness. 

At the hospital, Larry came especially to check on Beverly 

Thaddeus’s strong arms circled Evadne’s waist, holding her close, his voice a gentle whisper, “Evadne, don’t worry. The important thing is, Ms. Higgins is okay. That’s what matters most.”

Chapter 545 

Evadne, her eyes red and swollen, stared at the unconscious girl, the bitter guilt in her chest making her heart ache, “Thank goodness you thought to send Gordon today. I figured Aaron could talk to Beverly’s mom. But what if we’d been careless? What if Gordon and Aaron had been a step too late?” 

The hypothetical if still sent shivers down their spines. 

Had that “if” turned out differently, they would either have been responsible for the death of an innocent girl or the loss of a loyal comrade. Either prospect could haunt them for life. 

Seeing Evadne’s eyes brimming with broken light, ready to spill over, Thaddeus felt the pain in his throat as he pulled her into his embrace. 

He rubbed her back, murmuring words of comfort, not even fully aware of what he was saying, just hoping to ease her pain, her guilt. 

Gordon felt even more helpless, “Mrs. Abernathy! Both me and Ms. Higgins are fine, please don’t cry! If you cry, I might too!”
