Isaac did not return even at 8 PM and Irene's calls were not getting through.

It was only after she asked James that she found out that Isaac had left the country.

Irene drew a blank, and asked, "Who are you?"

"I'm calling from emergency dispatch—we had to get your number from the patient's phone. If you're a family member, please come to the hospital at once."

"He was wounded in a fire. He's being rushed to Cloud City General as we speak."

"Understood. I'll be right there," Irene said. She then quickly got out of bed and put on her clothes before asking the chauffeur to drive her to the hospital.
