Byran's fist clenched so tightly that it creaked. In the end, he couldn't help but punch Ethan hard.

When Chase and Ida arrived at the hospital, Ellinor had already been rushed into the delivery room. Outside the door, Balfour and his security team stood guard, along with a pale-faced Belinda.
Ida approached Balfour with a serious expression. "Mr. Howard, how's our boss doing?"
Balfour’s forehead was creased, and a facade of calmness was hiding the anxiety gnawing at him. "She was rushed into the delivery room after her water broke. They've given her an epidural. All we can do now is wait."
Ida's gaze shifted to the delivery room door. "What about Mr. Blanchet? Hasn’t he returned yet?"
The mention of his unreliable brother-in-law caused Balfour's frown to deepen. While shaking his head in disappointment, he replied, "Can't reach him."
Ida’s brows furrowed, and a hint of resentment towards Theo flickered in her eyes.
At such a crucial time, the man couldn’t even stay by the boss’s side. What use was he?
Chase, standing nearby, shared their concern. But his attention was not only focused on the delivery room but also on Belinda, who sat huddled in a chair by the door.
They couldn't enter the delivery room and could only wait.
Chase moved towards Belinda, quietly taking a seat beside her.
Noticing the movement next to her, Belinda looked up to see Chase.
