After Gloria tossed Sloane out of the venue, someone, seemingly prepared for it, picked her up and rushed her to the hospital.
At the hospital, when Lorraine saw Sloane wheeled in, her legs wrapped in bandages, she broke down in tears. "Oh, my daughter, you've been through so much." Sloane's face was pale from the pain, and she couldn't help but feel a pang of regret. She hadn't expected Khloe to be so merciless, breaking both of her legs.

"Did you get it?" the woman asked in a calm, measured tone.

The film crew had finished, and now Khloe poured all her energy into the biological lab, placing orders for equipment. She had the connections for it, and Henrik's investment had alleviated part of the funding problem. But even with all that, it still wasn't enough.
Henrik could have effortlessly covered all the lab's research expenses, but Khloe was determined not to depend entirely on him.
