“Well…”

Johanna and Beal exchanged glances. Finally, Johanna spoke up, albeit hesitantly. “You see, Brandon fainted during the search and rescue, and now he is in the hospital.”

Janet’s eyes widened and she clutched Johanna’s hand worriedly. “How is he now?

Brandon’s always been healthy. How could he suddenly pass out?”

The more she thought about it, the more anxious Janet became. She lifted the blanket and was about to get out of bed. “We have to go back to Seacisco now.”

“Calm down, Janet. We were so busy looking for you that we didn’t spare time to visit him in the hospital. But I heard that Brandon is fine now.” Johanna comforted Janet in a gentle voice.
