“We’ll be on our way there.” Watching them leave, Scott took up his seat on the sofa again.

Calmly, he made a call and instructed, “Do it.” “Okay, Mr.

Hendrix.” Neil drove fast on the way back to the hospital, and Kenny even played the music in the car.

” Caroline is awake, Neil, and I feel the air is freaking fresh now!” Smiling, Neil agreed, “Yeah, Carol is pretty tough.
