We Are Done The doctor said, "The latest report shows that the patient's in a frail condition.

She might pass away at any moment.

It's no longer necessary for her to stay in the hospital.

You might as well take her home and grant her final wishes.” Raegan walked out of the doctor's office in a trance.

Her steps were unsteady, and her strength drained, forcing her to find a bench to collapse onto.

Kendra, a caring nursing worker, spotted Raegan in the corridor.

She rushed over after seeing the pallor on Raegan's once-pretty face and asked with concern, "Miss Hayes, what's happened?" Unable to find her voice, Raegan fumbled for her phone.

Her trembling hand made it difficult to press the necessary buttons.

With a trembling voice, she implored Kendra, "Kendra, please help me make a call.

Press the number one button.” The number one button on Raegan’s phone was linked to Mitchel's number.

Kendra was startled by Raegan’s expression but took the phone, doing as instructed.

She dialed the number, but there was no answer.

Kendra tried again, still to no avail.

Glancing at Raegan, Kendra asked quietly, "Should I try one more time?" "Yes, keep calling until he picks up." Raegan's resolve remained unshaken.

In her vulnerability, Raegan yearned for Mitchel to provide the strength she desperately needed.

More importantly, she hoped he could help fulfill her grandmother's final wishes.

On the third attempt, the call finally went through.

"What's up?" Mitchel asked impatiently.

But Raegan had no time to think about anything else.

She pleaded in a low voice, "Mitchel, can you come back? It’s about my grandma...” Suddenly, a delicate female voice interrupted Raegan's words.

"Mitchel..." Raegan felt a crushing disappointment wash over her.

She thought it was her imagination and asked, “Are you with Lauren right now?" "Yes, Lauren...” "Mitchel Dixon!" Raegan couldn't believe it.
