“I’m okay, darling. Kate said it was just a flesh wound.”
Simon glanced over at me as the paramedics examined my head.
“You?” He gestured toward Lloyd’s body.
“Yeah. He threatened my family.”
The corners of Simon’s mouth curved upward as he held out his fist to me. I fist-bumped him as the paramedics put me on the stretcher.
“Go be with your mom,” I said.
“I’ll call Grayson and let him know you’re on your way in.” He placed his hand on mine.
“Shaun, grab my purse for me. It’s in your office,” I shouted as the paramedics stepped onto the elevator.
CHAPTER42
Grayson
I was sitting in the cafeteria having lunch with Christian and Charleigh when my phone rang. Pulling it from my pocket, I saw it was Simon.
“Hey, Simon.”
“Grayson, I don’t want you to freak out.”
“What happened!”
“Ava, I mean, Kate, is being brought in by ambulance. She has a bad gash on her head that needs stitching.”
“WHAT!” I shouted and looked at Christian and Charleigh.
“Calm down. She’s okay. My mother is also being brought in for a flesh wound.”
“A flesh wound? What the fuck happened?” I got up and headed down to the ER. Christian and Charleigh followed.
“I’ll explain when I get there. Just relax. Kate is okay.”
I went out to the ambulance entrance and waited for it to arrive.
“I got Kate. You two take a look at Aunt Barb.”
“What the hell happened?” Christian asked.
“I don’t know. Simon said he’ll explain when he gets here.”
One of the ambulances pulled up, and I ran up to it and opened the door.
“Oh, my God. Are you okay?”
“Relax, Dr. Kind. I’m fine. The other guy, not so much.” Kate smiled. “I have to stick around for a while and give my statement to the cops.”
“I know.” I smiled as the paramedics wheeled her into the hospital and to Bay 1. “What happened, and why were you with my Aunt Barb?”
“It’s my fault,” Shaun stood in the doorway.
I turned my head and looked at him.
“It’s not his fault. Don’t listen to him. It’s the psycho man’s fault. People are really unstable these days. Is everyone else okay, Shaun?” I asked.
