Morwenna pondered for a while, her mind racing with thoughts.

All of a sudden, a light bulb went off in her head. She quickly dialed Fletcher's number.

"Dr. Vaughn, do you have a minute?" she asked tentatively.

Fletcher almost didn't recognize the number. It took him a moment to place the voice.

"Hey, Mrs. Hetfield, what's up? Something on your mind?"

Morwenna felt a tad embarrassed as she explained, "I'm outside the Hetfield Group with some dinner for Stuart, but it's a bit awkward for me to go in. Could you let him know? Maybe he could send someone to pick it up at the front door."

Fletcher understood immediately and didn't pry further. "Sure, no problem at all," he responded.

"Thanks a lot, Dr. Vaughn. I appreciate it," Morwenna replied.

After hanging up, Fletcher clicked his tongue, wondering about the situation.

Outside his office, someone called out to him, reminding him that surgery was about to start. He was really busy, but recalling Morwenna's sincere gaze, he decided to help her out.

He quickly called Stuart, "Hey Stuart, someone has brought you dinner. Head down to the lobby to pick it up. Alright, the message delivered. I've got to run."

With that, Fletcher rushed off to prepare for an emergency surgery.
