A Friend to Call Kelly's POV "Elle!"

I was taken aback upon hearing that worried voice. When I lifted my face, my boss, Caleb Walter, was standing a few meters away from me, looking so worried. He's wearing his usual business attire and black rimmed eyeglasses. Why is he here?

He rushed to me and stood in front of me. He examined my face with a visibly worried expression. "Are you okay? Are you hurt?"

The officer nodded. "We just need to ask you a few questions about Mr. Klay Carver, Miss Monroe. But first, I'll have my men assist you to the hospital."

"No. I want to go home."

"Kelly, you need to go to the hospital," Pierce interrupted and touched my elbow. I looked at his hand languidly. He immediately pulled his hand back and sighed.
