The cops hurriedly took her away.

All of a sudden, I heard the doorbell ring loudly. At first, I ignored it, thinking that my mind was playing tricks on me.

However, the doorbell rang for the second time a few moments after.

I got out of bed and headed downstairs, wondering who had come to disturb me at this hour.
