Derrick chuckled as he held the marble box. Then, he tossed it toward Suzanna, who lay on the hospital bed, protected by Christina
The white marble box hit Suzanna’s forehead directly, leaving a fresh cut on her face.
The incident happened so swiftly that Sean, Christina, and Freda barely had time to react.
When Sean realized what had occurred, he moved to strike Derrick, but Derrick, as a grown man, easily overpowered the older Sean, pushing him down onto the bed beside Suzanna with a rare fury in his eyes.

Cameron was the most harmless–looking and mysteriolis figure in the Shields.
Derrick’s eyes widened, looking toward Cameron with a mix of respect and tension. Taking a step back, he stiffened slightly, then addressed him respectfully, “Cam, what brings you here?”
Cameron glanced at them indifferently, then turned his gentle gaze to Suzanna’s battered face, beckoning her over. “Suzie, come here.”
