Daniel calmed down and obediently answered the question.

Brittany, relieved to hear her son was well, worried about Yuri's health, planning to visit him in the hospital soon.

Eltham watched Brittany closely, the tenderness she showed when talking to Daniel made him irresistibly drawn to her.

He reluctantly thought about interrupting their call.

Together, they rushed to the hospital.
