him to the hospital, he’s unlikely to survive.”

Caden quickly got out of bed, telling Alicia, “Stay here. I'll check it out.” He hurriedly dressed and went to answer
the door.
After Caden left, Cade dashed into the room, positioning himself protectively by the bed. Alicia could just make
out the sound of someone crying. She stroked Cade’s head and decided to follow Caden.
At the door, Alicia was stunned to find Gemma kneeling there. Gemma’s white dress was smeared with blood,
and she clung to Caden’s pant leg, her words tumbling out in frantic desperation.

and needed urgent help at the hospital.

cut on her neck still bleeding. Without hesitation, Alicia agreed to accompany Gemma to the hospital.

the hospital. When Corey refused, Gemma, in a panic, grabbed a fruit knife and threatened to harm herself.

with medical devices could be Pierre's only chance. But it was too late.
