Dominic chose to stay at the hospital with Sienna.
But they called in several bodyguards, preparing to have them escort Jean all the way home..
“Isn't this a little over the top?" Jean looked at the stern-faced men in black standing in front of her and couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth.
"How is this over the top?" Sienna looked at her with worried eyes, her brows tightly furrowed. "We're in a sensitive tright now. Your brother was just attacked-who knows who that person will go after next?" ( She wasn't wrong.

Given what happened before, with her being kidnapped, she couldn't exactly guarantee she wouldn't be targeted again...
There was no telling how long this moment of peace would last.
Back in her bedroom, Jean began to recall the details of the . It was pretty clear by now that the disaster Samuel was supposed to face years later had arrived early.
The 's description of this part was vague; most of the details weren't spelled out.
