In the small restaurant near the hospital, Millie was eating with Tobin.
“Mr. Nicolas, have you found the person who hit my grandma?”
A trace of guilt swept through his face as he said, “Millie, I’m sorry. With the Limited manpower and technology in the countryside, all we can do is wait for the results from the Preagend police.”
“You don’t have to apologize. I know you tried your best.”

While they ate, Travis watched them from afar in the car. Then, he got out of the car and walked into the hospital.
Travis stood in front of Millie’s grandmother’s ward. He adjusted his face mask and pulled down his hat before stepping inside.

The pain of her skin being pierced woke her up with a start. Her eyes went wide when she saw the man in front of her.
“Who are you?”
Travis hadn’t anticipated that she would wake up. He reached out and tried to cover her mouth, but the old woman resisted and shouted, “Help! Help! There’s someone in..”

Millie was still eating when she received a call from the hospital.
Immediately, she and Tobin rushed back to the hospital.
It was only after Millie saw her grandma awake on the hospital bed that she breathed normally again.
