Anna was rushed to the ER, leaving Luke pacing anxiously outside, worry written all over his face.

Roy hesitated before speaking up, "Mr. Bolton, I've already informed the Sanders. Should we go to the airport now? If we wait any longer, we'll miss the flight."

Cloudville was in a remote, high-altitude town. There was only one flight a day from Nightville to Cloudville.

The weather in Cloudville had been bad lately, with frequent flight cancellations, which was why Roy had kindly offered the reminder.

Luke's expression darkened, and he snapped angrily, "Are you out of your mind? Chloe is perfectly fine, having the time of her life in Cloudville. She's not going to die. But Anna's life is on the line. How can I leave her right now?"

Roy had assumed that when Luke called in the middle of the night, asking for flowers and gifts, he was planning to apologize to me properly.

Just last night, he said I was more important than Anna, and now he was already going back on his word.

I noticed Roy's eyes dim slightly, probably feeling that I deserved better.

After all, Roy had witnessed the entire journey from Luke and me being deeply in love to where we were now. Deep down, he probably hoped we'd reconcile.

He lowered his head, hiding the disappointment in his eyes. "I'll go handle the ticket cancellation right away."

Just as the Sanders arrived, Anna was wheeled out. The doctor, holding the results, called out, "Family of the patient!"

Luke hurried forward. "I'm her family. How's Anna doing?"

The doctor took one look at his worried face before responding. "She's stable now, but how exactly are you taking care of her? You know she has a heart condition, and yet you still stimulated her on purpose! If she hadn't received medical treatment in time, she could've gone into sudden cardiac arrest at any moment!"

"Stimulated?" The Sanders looked at Luke. "Anna came back to the Bolton Residence yesterday. What could have upset her?"

Luke was just as puzzled. "Mom, don't worry. I'll get to the bottom of this. The important thing is that Anna is okay."

In the hospital room, the family gathered around Anna, treating her like a fragile porcelain doll, their faces filled with concern and tenderness.
