The two kids stopped frolicking and looked at him curiously.

Shane shook his head and said worriedly, “I don't know. Jacqueline suddenly stopped saying anything.”

“Did something happen to her?” Natalie gazed at his phone and made a bold guess.

Shane couldn't help but swallow his saliva, worrying that what she said might be right. As he was about to say something, they heard a voice again over the phone. Nevertheless, it wasn't Jacqueline but another unfamiliar woman who said, “Hello, Mr. Thompson, are you still there?”

“Yes, I'm here. Who are you?” Shane immediately put the phone near his ear again and questioned in a deep voice.

“I'm the nurse on duty to take care of Ms. Graham. I wanted to check up on her just now and realized that she has passed out. Since she was holding a phone, I tried to answer it,” the nurse replied.

Shane was startled. “What? Did Jacqueline pass out?”

Meanwhile, Natalie raised her eyebrow in shock upon hearing it.

She couldn't believe that she made the right guess—something happened to Jacqueline.

“Yes, I have just checked on Ms. Graham. She fainted all of a sudden,” the nurse continued speaking as she lifted Jacqueline's eyelid.
