But the next second, Tempest grabbed Rianne’s face and turned it toward him, forcing their eyes to meet. “Tell me–did you see Alexander again?”

Rianne narrowed her eyes. “Stop blaming everything on Alexander. The problems between us have nothing to do with him.”

“Then what do they have to do with?” His voice exploded with rage.

The air went still.

Rianne stared at him in silence.

Tempest tightened his grip on her wrist. “Rianne.”

“I want to be alone. I don’t want to see you right now. Is that okay?”

Her final word came through gritted teeth.

Her

Tempest’s entire presence turned volatile.

This was the first time Stella had seen them like this–so on edge, ready to snap.

In her mind, Tempest had always been fiercely protective of Rianne. But now? What the hell had happened between them?

Before either of them could lose control, Stella stepped forward. “Tempest, Rianne just got hurt. She might not be thinking clearly right now. Can you give her some space?”

He was right on the edge, and Stella was truly afraid he might lash out.

The mention of her being injured seemed to pull Tempest back from that line.

His eyes lingered on Rianne as he slowly released her wrist. Stella let out a quiet breath.

She moved in gently. “Let me talk to Rianne alone, okay?”

This wasn’t like Rianne, She had never pushed Tempest away like this before.

Even back when she had problems with the Hale family, she hadn’t been this hostile toward him personally.

No… now that Stella thought about it, she had sensed something was wrong back then.

She looked at Rianne more closely, tension in her eyes.

Tempest straightened up and glanced at Stella. The fury had faded from his face, replaced by a grim calm. He didn’t say a word as he turned and walked briskly down the hall.

Stella turned to the stunned medical staff. “Please take her to a room.”

Tempest’s presence had been so overpowering, none of the doctors had dared interrupt the entire time.

Now that he was gone, the hospital director immediately spoke up. “Hurry, get Ms. Rianne to a room.”

No

one dared neglect anyone connected to the Hale family.

Even if the entire family disliked Rianne, everyone knew–she was Tempest’s weak spot.

In the hospital room, Stella was accompanied by the butler–Abraham had dropped her off and then left.

Now it was just Stella and Rianne. Stella took her hand. “What happened between you and Tempest?”

They’d been fine before.

And also–who’s Hailey?”

She’d overheard Tempest on the phone earlier, talking about handing Hailey over to the authorities.

Stella had never heard of anyone named Hailey during her years at Rivermount.

All she remembered was Madam Linden trying to set Tempest up on blind dates not long ago.

Could Hailey be one of them?

If so… what kind of lunatic went after Rianne right after a blind date?

Rianne answered flatly, “Tempest’s distant cousin. No blood relation.”

Technically a cousin, yes–but far removed, with a generational gap in between. Pretty distant.

Stella’s tone dropped. “Was she behind the crash?”

Rianne closed her eyes. She didn’t even want to talk about the Hale family anymore. Not a single word.

“Forget them. Stella… I want to leave Rivermount. Will you take me with you?”
