Chase and Sam had just returned to the villa when Chase’s phone rang. He answered. After a moment, he hung up, putting his jacket back on. He turned to Sam, who was heading upstairs. “Your great–grandmother had a fall. I’m going to the hospital now. Have an early night.” Sam worriedly said, “I want to go with you…”

The rest of the Sterling family was out of town. Besides Chase, only Emily’s housekeeper and caretaker were at the hospital. The housekeeper had contacted everyone else.
