Theodore had just escorted Vanessa to the surgical department of the hospital. Her white handkerchief, stained red with blood, was a horrifying sight. Ruby stood by Vanessa's side, seeing her pale face from the pain, filled with both anxiety and heartache. "Vanessa, hold on, the doctor will be here soon."
