Yolanda watched Cassius, who looked so fragile he could hardly stand, feeling a mix of guilt and anxiety twist inside her.

Did she actually mess him up this bad? If that were the case, the Sterling family would surely cafter her, pitchforks and all.

Panic pricked at her, and she decided it was tto stop pointing fingers. She reached out to help Cassius up.

He tried to support himself, releasing the hand that was clutching his groin, struggling mightily.

In her distress, Yolanda bent down, and to her surprise, managed to lift Cassius off the ground.

For the first tin his life, Cassius found himself being carried like a princess, and by none other than a woman who barely stood 5'3", with arms and legs that looked like twigs.

He was so stunned that he instinctively clung to Yolanda's shoulders.

"Yolanda, are you even a woman? Putdown, for Pete's sake!" They were close to the bed, so Yolanda, without another thought, tossed the refined Mr. Sterling onto it.

"Ow! Yolanda!" Cassius lay there, feeling like he'd lost all his dignity in one day.

He gritted his teeth, his jawline looking even sharper, his gaze cutting like a blade.

His face always had a bit of a rogue look, and after he played a ruthless drug lord in that award-winning movie, people couldn't forget his fierce presence.

Sfans even jokingly suggested the cops should check him out, seriously suspecting he had a real-life criminal streak.

If it were any other woman, she'd probably be clinging to his leg, tearfully begging for forgiveness by now. But Yolanda wasn't scared of him. Instead, she squinted at Cassius, giving him a once-over with suspicion. "You suddenly seem so full of life. Were you faking being hurt? Are you actually fine?" Cassius internally cursed, curling up again, snapping in annoyance.

"Fake it? Why would I? You know exactly what you did. Why are you just standing there? Go get a doctor!" Yolanda, jolted by his words, saw his expression and realized it didn't seem like he was pretending.

Also, considering Cassius's pride, if he wasn't actually hurt, he'd never ask for a doctor.

With that in mind, worry crept back into her.

"You hang in there, I'll find a doctor." She turned and dashed out.

Yolanda didn't expect to see Lizetta stepping o out of the room as she exited.

dn't expect to see s to .n "Liz? What are you doing here?" Yolanda was surprised. How long had she been out of it? What else had she forgotten? Lizetta took a couple of steps forward. "You've got salmost gavea heart at asking that, Ms. Yolanda.

|| Yolanda looked puzzled, but she remembered she had someone needing medical attention inside.

Without further delay, she shut the door behind her and said, "Liz, I need to run downstairs for a bit." Her expression was slightly awkward, and she hurried down the stairs.

Lizetta had heard sshouting from inside earlier and found m ve Yolanda's behavior strange.

But clearly, whatever went down, it wasn't Yolanda who was hurfòm causing a scene.

Lizetta chuckled and followed her quickly.

"Yoli, you didn't leave poor Cassius in shambles, did you?" She called out to Yolanda at the top of the stairs.

Yolanda was already halfway down, feeling a bit embarrassed.

It was embarrassing, mostly because the incident could tarnish Cassius's reputation if she had indeed injured him, it was better if fewer people knew. Without turning back, she waved dismissively.

"No, no, I'm just starving! Off to find something to eat!" She heard sounds coming from the kitchen and quickly made her way there.
