He Lost Me to His Best Friend novel Chapter 445

Jacqueline halted mid-swing.

Both Scarlett and Yardley froze.

The three of them turned to see Dominic Croft, Elara Chapman, and Julian rushing toward them.

The booming voice belonged to Dominic.

The fallout from the charity gala had instantly brought the two families closer. Dominic and Elara adored Dawn the moment they met her, unofficially claiming her as their honorary granddaughter.

So, the second they saw Jacqueline's panicked social media post about the fever, they drafted Julian as their driver and sped straight to the hospital.

The moment Julian and Yardley locked eyes, the air between them turned glacial.

"Why are you here?"

They practically spat the question at the same time, their aggressive tones identical.

Yardley scoffed, a sneer curling his lips. "And what gives you the right to ask me that?"

Julian stepped forward, his gaze icy. "I'm just surprised."

"If I were you, after the stunts your family pulled, I wouldn't have the face to show up in front of Scarlett or Jacqueline ever again."

A nerve twitched at Yardley's temple. "This is a private matter! You have no right to interfere!"

He pointed toward the ER doors. "My daughter is in there with a high fever! I don't have time to argue with you! Do us all a favor and leave!"

Before Julian could respond, Elara stepped in. She pulled her son behind her and unleashed her fury on Yardley.

"If you ask me, you're the one who needs to leave!"

"Listen to me, Mr. Flynn, you better speak to my son with some respect, or I'll make sure you regret it!"

Ever since the showdown at the gala, Elara had fully embraced the thrill of being an unapologetic mama bear.
