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

“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.”

“Okay, sir,” Jack replied before ending the call.

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?

“What happened to Harriet?” Riley asked.

“She overdosed and is currently in the hospital,” I answered, quickly putting on a pair of jeans.

“I know.” I hurriedly put on my shirt.

“But why would she do that? Did you two have an argument?” Riley queries, trying to understand the situation.

“Well, not really. It’s just that I said some hurtful things to her last night.”
