Melanie rushed to the desk.

"Chloe, what do you mean? What hospital? What did you do to her?"

The news shocked everyone as a collective gasp filled the room.

"What did you say?"

Matthew stood up in disbelief.

"What? Who...Liver cancer?"

"Chloe, you're creating trouble out of nothing.She was perfectly fine, and here you are, cursing her."

Melanie was relentlessly shouting at me.
