Vengeance With My White Knight by Maya Kensington

Chapter 76 After visiting Mrs. Blackwood, Stephanie had to pass by Olivia's hospital room on her way out.

Chris was waiting for her at the door. The moment he saw her, he frowned and stepped forward, blocking her path.

Stephanie raised an eyebrow. "What? Are you looking to get beaten up again today?" Chris' voice was ice-cold. "How did you beclike this?" His gaze darkened as it swept over the man following behind Stephanie, his expression turning even more hostile.

Elliot carried himself with an air of nobility, which led Chris to asshe was just another man Stephanie was clinging Stephanie let out a short, mocking laugh. "And what does that have to do with you?" 1. to.

"If you really cut ties with the Hart family, what do you think you have left? Do you honestly believe those men would still want you?" As he spoke, his eyes flicked toward Elliot.

The air around Elliot grew even colder. He took a step forward. "Miss Giovanni, why don't you wait forin the car?" Chris froze for a second at the way he addressed her.

Stephanie had no interest in wasting words with Chris. She nodded and glanced at Elliot, "Mind your limits.” After all, the Ashford family was one of the most powerful forces in Long Harbor.

Sebastian was personally staying in Long Harbor this time, which meant whatever he was planning was serious If Chris ended up provoking the Ashford family, it could make things even more difficult for Sebastian.

Elliot knew Stephanie was thinking about Sebastian's best interests, so he nodded. "Understood." Stephanie took one last look at Chris, who still seemed stunned, then turned and walked away. Just as she passed by, Chris suddenly grabbed her wrist. "You need to explain this toHe could not understand why that man was so nice to her.

But before he could demand an answer, the next second, he was slammed against the wall, his head knocking against it with a dull thud.

Elliot had no patience for anyone insulting Stephanie like that.

If Sebastian found out I let this slide, I would not hear the end of it, he wondered.

Chris' fury exploded. "You son of a bitch!" Without hesitation, he swung at Elliot, and the two men broke into a full-blown fight. Even with only one good arm, Chris still managed to hold his ground.

Stephanie could not be bothered to watch. She simply turned around and walked away.

Seeing her leave only made Chris angrier. "Stephanie, stop right there!" He moved to chase after her, but Elliot cut him off again.

With only one usable arm, Chris was at a disadvantage. Meanwhile, Elliot was no slouch when it cto fighting. Within moments, Chris began losing ground, 1/4 22:10 Mon, 3 Mar Chapter 76 Inside Olivia's hospital room, Catlin and Tyler heard the commotion and rushed out.

Seeing Chris fighting a man they did not recognize, they were both stunned. "Tyler, go help him! Catlin called out anxiously.

48% Before Tyler could step in. Elliot sent Chris stumbling back with a powerful blow. His voice was calm but laced with warning "Mr. Ashford, if you keep this up, you might not have a functioning arm left. Are you sure you want to continue?" he said.

Chris' leg was already injured. He glared at Elliot, eyes flashing dangerously.

Elliot, however, simply adjusted his slightly disheveled suit with practiced case, then turned and walked away.

Tyler, pale-faced, hurried over to Chris. "Are you okay?" His eyes flicked down to Chris' leg, which was trembling slightly.

Tyler himself was still sore. Elliot had not held back earlier.

Chris narrowed his eyes. Before he could respond, a pained moan cfrom Olivia's hospital room.

Catlin was the first to rush back inside.

Tyler glanced at Chris. She's really not doing well... You know, she used to be obsessed with her looks. This morning, when she saw how much hair she was losing...

He trailed off, unable to continue, his voice thick with worry.

Chris looked at Tyler, then at the hospital room door.

For a moment, Tyler thought Chris was about to step inside to check on Olivia. But instead, Chris turned on his heel and walked away.

His movements were sharp, but his steps were unsteady. Clearly, the fight had taken a toll on him.

Tyler blinked in surprise. "Huh?" He had not expected that. With Olivia's painful cries and Catlin's frantic attempts to comfort her echoing from the room, he had assumed Chris would at least take a look. But Chris just left.

For a moment, Tyler could not make sense of it at all.

On Stephanie's side, Elliot drove Stephanie straight to Eastview Tower.

As she stepped out of the car, Elliot spoke. "Mr. Giovanni has sbusiness to attend to today, so he can only join you for dinner." Stephanic nodded obediently. "Got it." Then, without another word, she turned and walked inside.

Elliot watched her retreating figure for a moment before pulling out his phone and dialing Sebastian. "Hi, Mr. Giovanni." "You went to see Mrs. Blackwood?" Sebastian asked.

"Yes. We also ran into the Hart family and Chris," said Elliot.

At those words, silence filled the other end of the line. Even through the phone, Elliot could feel the sheer iciness radiating from Sebastian.

2/4 22:10 Mon, 3 Mar Chapter 76 "Chris seems to have a lot of free time, Sebastian finally said, his tone razor-sharp.

487 Elliot responded calmly. The entire Hart family has nothing better to do. They're constantly hovering around that woman.

Not only had they assembled a team of top specialists, but they also insisted on personally keeping Olivia company.

Chris, in particular, visited the hospital every single day.

"How's Stefi feeling?" Sebastian's voice was noticeably colder now.

Clearly, what truly mattered to him was not how idle the Hart family was but whether their actions had affected Stephanie's mood.

Elliot answered, "Miss Giovanni doesn't seem to care. She acts as if those people don't exist." At that, the tension on the other end eased significantly.

"Okay." Sebastian's tone was light, and Elliot could hear the satisfaction behind it.

Then Elliot added, "However, Chris and the Hart family are planning to kidnap Miss Giovanni." The moment those words left his mouth, the air turned frigid.

Stephanie had only been in her office for a short while when Chris stormed in unannounced.

Seeing him, she did not even bother hiding her displeasure. "What are you doing here? Barging in without greeting! Ever heard of common courtesy? People's tis valuable, you know Chris was already in a foul mood, but hearing that only fueled his anger. His eyes darkened with rage. "How many people can even reach you on the phone these days?" His tone was laced with frustration. At this point, aside from him, it was likely that no one in the entire Hart family or even the Ashford family could get through to her.

Stephanie, however, was completely unfazed by his fury. She took a slow sip from the glass of water on her e. desk and said indifferently, "If they can't get through, then they can't. It's not like we have any reason to stay in touch" "No reason to stay in touch? Chris temper flared. "Then who do you think you do need to stay in touch with? Those men?? Her words hit a nerve. She had cut off all contact with them, which meant the only people she relied on now were those men

The thought of them sent Chris' expression into a complete storm. "That man at the hospital, why did he stand up for you? What exactly is your relationship with him? Is he your sugar daddy? Are you being kept again?"

On the way over, Chris had gone over the situation again and again, but no matter how he thought about it, 'Hè could not understand their e relationship. Yet, the way he had protected her so fiercely clearly indicated they were very close. "This studio! So you did open it with dirty money, didn't you?" One question after another cflying at Stephanie, his anger seething to the point where it completely drowned out his logic.

Stephanie, still holding the water glass in her hand, simply threw its contents directly at Chris. The water had gone cold.

As it splashed onto Chris' face, the chill instantly snapped him back to his senses. 3/4 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
