Alex managed a wry smile. "You finally remember me, huh?"

Having someone on the inside at the hospital sure made things easier.

Alex and Jade had complete faith in Josefina. After all, she had saved their lives. Who else could they trust if not her?

Josefina continued, "Take a few days off. Don't worry about work; just focus on getting to the hospital and getting checked out."
