The scene at the Gala was distasteful and horrific, and although Autumn didn't witness it, she heard it and felt the adrenaline emotion. 

The screams, the sounds of the physical beating, Micheal's heavy breathing, Nico's comforting words, and the police before she let out a desperate cry for Micheal as the police took him away. After the police left with Micheal and the paramedics left with the guy known as Sean, everyone back at the venue was left in shock. 

Nico immediately took Autumn home because, at this point, she was his responsibility until Micheal gets out of his difficult situation. Nico felt pity for Autumn as he watched her silently cried beside him, "It's alright, darling, everything is going to be alright," he said as Autumn sniffled, "What about Micheal, where has he gone, is he alright?"
