Jared stood beside her and said, “Once I hung up the call with you, the hospital staff took him to the morgue.”

Natalie murmured in response. She was not surprised to hear that.

Patients who died in the hospital were not allowed to stay in the wards for too long. They had to be transferred to the morgue.
