Xavier had never kept anything from Yvette before.

She narrowed her eyes. There would be time to figure this out later. Right now, getting Wilson to the hospital was the priority.

"Take him to the hospital. My medication can help with the pain, but he needs proper care."

Samuel nodded and heeded her advice. "Understood, Ms. Yvette."
