After hanging up the phone, Everett had already hailed a cab. He was a sharp one, and from Dorothy's few frantic words, he grasped the gravity of the situation.

Once in the car, Dorothy's hands were trembling uncontrollably.

Everett gently rubbed her back. "Don't worry, it's going to be okay. The resort has a doctor on call, and Jeffrey had made arrangements just in case something happened to Karen."

"I'll call Jeffrey! He should be around the resort, not far off." Dorothy nodded, "Don't rush into lecturing him. Let's make sure Karen is alright first." "Yeah." Everett dialed Jeffrey's number several times to no avail — either he didn't have his phone on him, or it was on silent.
