Riley, however, didn't seem to care.
"Ah, it's nothing, really. Don't worry about me. You focus on taking care of Renata when she wakes up."
"I'll hang up now!"
With that, Riley ended the call.
"Riley—"
Catherine hurriedly called out, but Riley had already hung up.
Catherine frowned, holding her phone, trying to figure out what to do about Riley. She was worried—Riley was too impulsive, and Catherine feared she might further provoke the Channings. She wanted to head to the police station herself, but her mother's surgery was still ongoing; she couldn't leave.
"What happened?"
The deep voice of the man beside her reached her, pulling Catherine out of her thoughts.
She suddenly remembered the imposing presence next to her. Since he asked, it meant he had heard the phone conversation with Riley, so Catherine didn't bother hiding anything.
"My friend just had a bit of an unpleasant encounter with Lucca in the parking lot. It escalated to the police station…"
