Sheila and Tracy headed back to the hospital room to grab their stuff. They wanted to get back home ASAP to comfort Arnold.
Just as they walked into the room, there was Elinor, chilling in a chair, looking completely at ease.
This sight just ticked off Sheila and Tracy, who were already at their wits' end!
Sheila stepped up to give her a shove, but before she could, Elinor had a firm grip on her wrist.
With a nonchalant look, Elinor asked, "Why the sneak attack, sis?"
Irritated, Sheila retorted, "Elinor, you're behind all of this, aren’t you?"
Tracy chimed in, "Yeah, it has to be you!"
Elinor tilted her head. "What are you talking about? What did I do? Every decision you made was your own, right?"
Furious, Sheila clenched her teeth and was about to slap Elinor when there was a sudden knock on the door.
Both Sheila and Tracy turned to see Chase, the Vice President of the Crescent Society, standing at the door with a polite, gentlemanly gesture.
Sheila immediately put on a charming smile and said, "Oh, Mr. Larios, what brings you here?"
Chase replied with a smile: "Your assistant told me you were here."
