Still engulfed with shock, Hayley collapsed to her knees, her gaze fixed on Leonardo, who lay on the floor fighting for his life as blood poured from his wounds.

Is he going to be alright?" Dana asked, her tone filled with concern as she stared at Hayley hopefully. Hayley nodded, her expression neutral yet reassuring as she replied. "He's going to be fine, Ma'am. They were able to stop the bleeding before it escalated. He's receiving proper medical care, and for now, he's just resting. He needs some time to recover."
