“Don't mention it, Madam.” Silas bowed slightly and showed her the way to the car.

While waiting in the car, her phone rang. Natalie could tell from the displayed incoming number that it was from the mental hospital. They were likely calling with regards to Jasmine.

She picked up the call and answered, “Hello.”

“Are you Mrs. Thompson?” the nurse asked over the phone.

Natalie nodded and confirmed, “Yes.”

“I'm calling with regards to Ms. Jessie Skye. Her operation at the other general hospital is over, and she has been transferred back to our hospital,” the nurse reported.

“Thanks for the update. How is she?' Natalie asked while brushing her hand through her hair.

“She hasn't come out of the anesthesia,” replied the nurse.

“Okay, thank you. Please take good care of her,” Natalie urged.

“Don't worry, Mrs. Thompson. We will.” And with that assurance, the nurse ended the call.

Just as Natalie put down her phone, the car door opened, and Shane joined her. “Who were you talking to?”

“It was from the mental hospital. They just called to update me that Jasmine had her abortion surgery done at a general hospital and was brought back to them after the surgery.” Natalie kept her phone in her bag and asked, “Your meeting is over?”

“Yes, but I have another meeting in Irushea tomorrow,” Shane replied with a nod.

Natalie let out a small sigh and muttered, “It must be so tiring for you.”
