Celeste and Betty stayed with Martha for about half an hour before Trevor said, “I’m stepping out for a bit.”

During that time, Trevor had mostly remained a silent observer, barely speaking.

Hearing this, Martha scoffed, “Just go then.”

Trevor left the hospital room. But once he was gone, he didn’t return for over half an hour.

Earlier, Samantha had been there, making sure the fruit, pastries, and tea were all well taken care of.

After Samantha stepped away for a moment, Celeste noticed that Betty’s tea had gone cold. So, she picked up the small teapot and went over to the table, intending to brew a fresh pot of tea.
