Chapter 224
Breathing in the fresh oxygen made Taya feel like a fish that had been out of water for too long, suddenly returning to the pond and regaining a new life.
She grabbed the oxygen mask and desperately inhaled.
Seeing that her face had regained a hint of color, Griffon’s furrowed brow started to unwrinkle slightly.
He looked at Stella, who was examining Taya. “How is she?” he
asked.
After listening for a while, Stella felt something was wrong with Taya’s heart.
“The oxygen has helped a bit, but I need to examine her further and run some tests.”
Taya’s heart didn’t sound healthy at all, and given how she looked and her symptoms, Stella was sure it was some type of heart failure. But she didn’t dare to say anything in front of Griffon before she had conclusive test results.
“Run everything. I need to know exactly what’s wrong with her,” Griffon demanded with a growl, letting the commanding
tone of his Alpha seep through.
Stella nodded. “I’ll go make the arrangements.”
Hearing their conversation, Taya gave up struggling.
Her illness could no longer be hidden. If Griffon knew, then let
him know.
After Stella left, Griffon took out his phone and called Andre. “Two things. Remove the hotel’s surveillance footage and s hut Jackson’s m outh up.”
“Yes, Alpha,” Andre replied respectfully.
Only then did Griffon put down his phone and look at Taya. “Why didn’t you tell me you had a heart attack?”
His expression was as unmoved as ever, as if he was not worried about her illness but instead blamed her for hiding it.
Seeing his unconcerned expression, the little ripples stirred up in Taya’s heart gradually faded.
She raised her hand and wanted to remove the oxygen mask to speak, but he grabbed her wrist.
“Don’t move.”
Griffon’s Alpha voice rang in Taya’s ears, sparking hope that he actually cared.
She pressed down on her chest, trying to control the frequency of her heartbeat, but she was frightened by Griffon,
who suddenly leaned over.
His tall and large, muscular body, with its stifling sense of oppression, hit Taya, making her unconsciously shrink her neck backward and into the pillow.
If he noticed her shrinking away from him, he gave no indication. He pressed her down on the bed even more, lowered his head, and stared at her pale face.
“Are you still feeling unwell?” he asked softly.
It was rare for Griffon to show care for her like this. Actually, it could be said that he had never been so concerned about her before. This unexpected gentleness made Taya extremely uncomfortable.
She pressed her body tightly against the hospital bed despite the pain, only heaving a sigh of relief when she had managed to put another inch between them.
She lowered her head and said softly, “My back…”
She looked well-behaved and quiet, the same as when she
had been with him, as if she had never changed.
Griffon’s cold expression softened slightly.
He undid her coat and looked at her back.
The three dark red marks of the iron rod almost sank into her
flesh.
It was as if he could see the marks of broken bones.

“What the goddess happened?”
Griffon’s expression was deadly.
“Did Jackson hit you?”
Taya quickly shook her head. “Not him. Roman…”
Griffon frowned. “I don’t understand. Explain.”
Taya had no choice but to tell him everything that had happened in the hotel.
As soon as Griffon knew she hadn’t had s ex with Jackson, his furrowed brows slightly relaxed.
However, when he heard that she was almost violated by the
pack guards brought by Roman, his eyebrows tightly knitted. together again.
Without thinking, he took out his phone and made another
call. “Joe, deal with Roman!”
Mr. Chilton quickly replied dutifully, “Yes.”
Taya looked at Griffon, shocked that he would help her deal
with Roman.
Did he help her because he found out that the woman he had slept with almost violated by someone else or because he cared about her?
Thinking of Mr. Chilton of the Knight Pack that Roman had mentioned, she couldn’t help but ask, “Is that Joe… Mr. Chilton?”
Hearing this, Griffon’s expression didn’t change much, but his eyes narrowed. He nodded slightly in response.
When Taya saw him nod, her face darkened. Roman said she conspired with Mr. Chilton to trick him and suspected Mr. Chilton was Greyson.
What did this mean? She wanted to ask Griffon, but she didn’t want him to know that she had slept with Greyson.
She was afraid that Griffon would be angry, afraid that he
would think she was promiscuous, and even more afraid of his
verbal insults, so she didn’t dare to bring it up.
