Leo answered, "Dr. C just contacted us. They had something come up and couldn't attend the gala, but they'll be at the hospital first thing tomorrow morning to see Ms. Carly."

Carly's expression lit up. "Really? Dr. C is coming first thing in the morning to check on me?"

Sonia beamed. "That's amazing! With Dr. C's legendary skills, Carly's heart condition will definitely improve."

Tracy sighed in relief. "I was so disappointed when Dr. C wasn't at the gala tonight. I can't believe we'll get to see her first thing in the morning. This is fantastic!"
