Gwendolyn had calmed down by then. The anxiety-fueled adrenaline rush prevented her from feeling the chill in the winter air earlier. By the time the cold caught up to her, she was too weak to stand on her feet.

After learning that Juliette was out of danger, Gwendolyn finally relaxed, and her body was overwhelmed with exhaustion.
