At the hospital, Debbie gave the phone back to the woman holding the baby. Just then, Hayden was back with the receipt after paying the bill.
Doctors were not far behind.
“Deb, I asked them to get you a ward. Cwith me,” he said to her.
Sitting there, Debbie Looked pale and felt groggy. She nodded to Hayden and attempted to stand up. However, a surge of dizziness forced her to thump back into the chair again.
Hayden scooped her up as soon as he noticed how weak she was. He made her comfortable in his arms and hurried towards the ward. The hospital had been packed with patients recently. There hadn’t been a ward available in a long time. Right now, even the corridors of each floor were crammed with hospital beds.

Carlos couldn’t be indifferent to Debbie, no matter how mad he was at her. He still cared for the woman, though sometimes he thought only God knew why.
“Find out where she is! Now!” he told Emmett on the phone. Emmett knew exactly who he referred to.

In the inpatient department of Alorith Second General Hospital
A bunch of men in black stalked through the corridor, breaking the relative quiet of the hospital.
The man in charge Looked grimly at the hospital beds on either side of the hallway. Imagining Debbie in such terrible surroundings, he quickened his already hasty pace.

Emmett pushed open the door to a double ward, after which Carlos walked in steadily. There were two beds and four people inside.
A woman lay in the bed closer to the door, and a man sat next to it, head resting on the edge of the sbed, asleep. Carlos gave her a glance and walked on. She wasn’t Debbie.

Hayden sat on the sofa beside the bed, working. Seeing Carlos walk in, he smiled at him but didn’t speak.
The two men’s eyes met. With a stern look on his face, Carlos said nothing to Hayden either. He strode over to the bed and stared at

Carlos promptly peeled back the tape and plucked the needle out of her wrist. Hayden stood up and tried to stop him, but Emmett walked over and kept him where he was.
When Carlos Lifted the covers away, he saw that underneath, Debbie was only wearing hospital clothing. Quickly, he took off his overcoat and wrapped her tight. Without a word, he picked her up from the bed.
Maybe it was the warmth of his arms. Just then, Debbie slowly opened her eyes. In a blur, she thought she saw Carlos
