Kimberly did not care about them at all. She insisted on waiting at the entrance of the emergency room. She would only leave after knowing that Sylvia was fine.
The mobile phone in her hand vibrated. Kimberly looked at it and realized that the screen of her mobile phone was also covered with blood. It looked like Juliette was calling her.
Kimberly grabbed the hem of her clothes and wiped the blood off her screen. However, the more she wiped it, the dirtier it became, because the clothes were stained with blood as well. In the end, Kimberly answered the phone call first.
"Hello?"
Kimberly's voice was still trembling as she spoke.
"Miss Shell? Was it you who sent Mr. Hanover a message just now?" Juliette asked for confirmation.
"Yes," Kimberly responded. She took a deep breath, trying to make herself sound calm, "Are you on the way here?"
The other side of the call was silent for a while. Then, she heard the mature voice of a man.
"I'm on the way there. Tell me what happened."
Kimberly wanted to tell him. However, she couldn't bring herself to say the words.
She couldn't calm herself down enough to tell Quill that Sylvia tried to commit suicide. She still couldn't believe that everything that happened just now was real.
Thinking of this, she closed her eyes and said tiredly, "You'll know when you come over. I won't lie to you. I'll wait for you at the entrance of the emergency room."
After that, Kimberly hung up the call before he could begin asking her anything else.
'Toot toot-'
Seeing Kimberly hanging up the phone, Quill frowned.
Sitting beside him, Juliette looked at Quill doubtfully and asked, "Mr. Hanover?"
Quill came back to his senses. He glanced at Juliette and said, "Hurry up, we're going to the hospital now!"
Juliette nodded and talked to the driver in front of her, "Mr. Lowell, please drive faster."
"Okay."
Both of them were anxious. Kimberly did not say anything else. She just asked Quill to rush to the hospital because something happened to his sister.
Also, Kimberly's voice was trembling. Something serious must have happened.
'Perhaps...' Juliette thought to herself.
As time went by, Kimberly felt as if she had been waiting for a year. She looked at the corridor countless times, but Quill was still nowhere to be seen. She was extremely anxious.
Kimberly felt that she must call Sylvia's family over. She saw how much Sylvia had lost, and was afraid that something bad would happen to her.
Kimberly had so many regrets. She wished she could have arrived at the hotel earlier. Why did she walk so slowly?
Kimberly heard a pair of steady footsteps and the clatter of high heels coming towards her as she dwelled on her thoughts. Kimberly looked up at the end of the corridor and saw two familiar figures.
Quill and Juliette were here.
