Victor

After saying goodbye to her parents, Christine rushed to the hospital to visit Ethan.

Just as she stepped out of the elevator, she was surprised to see Ethan's uncle Victor standing outside the hospital room. He was with his two sons, Wesley and Marcus, and two bodyguards in suits. 

They were talking to Rebecca, and all turned to look at Christine as she emerged from the elevator.

Christine instinctively shrank back, scared they might notice the red marks on her neck where Adrian had grabbed her. Thankfully, the weather was getting cooler, and her turtleneck sweater naturally concealed the marks.

She composed herself and walked forward, greeting Victor first, then Ethan's two cousins. Victor gave her a practiced smile, which didn't reach his eyes.

Christine wasn't particularly close to Victor's family, having only met them a few times at Blackwood family gatherings during holidays.
