"Terence, why didn't you send Lily home?" Terence tucked the phone away. "It wasn't convenient." It was just three words, but Maryanne couldn't make sense of them.
She complained as she got out of the car, "What do you mean? You're just worried. She's only a girl, taking a cab alone in the middle of the night.

The nurse smiled. "Don't worry. The patient has responded well to the initial treatment. But the better the results, the more careful we have to be "Didn't the attending physician say they'd call when it's okay for you to visit?" If visiting wasn't allowed, then why did Hazel call her? Lily was confused and glanced toward the hospital room. "Lily, over here!"
At that moment, Hazel ran out of the elevator and walked toward Lily, flashing a smile at the nurse before pulling her toward the elevator. Lily had no choice but to retract her gaze as Hazel pulled her into the elevator. En "Didn't you say you wantedto see Hayden?" "Hayden is fine. I called you here for something else," Hazel sald, forcing a smile. It was as if the tension between them had never existed. Lily was used to Hazel's tactics.
