After saying goodbye to Mr. Thompson, Bruce rushed to the hospital uneasily.

Aria Bridges was now missing.

This made him extremely uneasy.

After this bloody lesson, he had a deep understanding of Aria and was even more shocked by her madness.

He had already promised Joanna to quit smoking. Now, he had finally made some progress.

It was better not to smoke again.
