LUKE’S POV

“What’s the problem? What’s wrong?” I asked Jack curiously.

“It’s Harriet,” he answered. I immediately stood up from the floor, still holding my phone in

my ear.

“Harriet? What happened to Harriet?” A worried expression appeared on my face.

“She’s currently at the hospital, unconscious.”

“What the… but how?” I inquired. “She was with me just last night. What could have happened to her?”

“Well, the doctor informed us that she took too many pills. It was an overdose, but fortunately, she survived.”

“Oh my goodness, Harriet,” I whispered to myself, hitting my head. “Text me the address of the hospital.”

Yes, she had done something wrong, and she needed to face the consequences. However, taking her own life was not the answer. What was she thinking?
