"Alright, got it."

After hanging up, Gilbert hurried to the hospital.

On the way, he called Sophia.

"It's me. How's Jenna doing? I'm on my way."

"Not too good, I'm afraid," Sophia sighed, sharing the truth. "She's asleep now, but it's a restless sleep."

Upon reaching the hospital, he didn't head straight for the room but first went to see Elijah.

"Mr. Johnson." Elijah was already aware of his identity. "Please, have a seat. Jenna started her treatment today."

"I'm aware."

Gilbert furrowed his brows and nodded, bringing up the medication, "Dr. Elijah, in your opinion, is this medication beneficial for Jenna?"

"This medication..."

Elijah paused, then nodded. "Of course, it is beneficial."
