Andrew couldn't believe what he was doing.

How did he get to the hospital parking lot? Heck, maybe he should blame David. Because it was the man who brought up the hospital in the first place. He doesn't even like hospitals!

Andrew looked at the hospital building that stood firmly. He took a deep breath and put on a hat that partially covered his face. Then he grabbed his phone, pulled out the key and climbed out. After turning on the alarm, Andrew walked towards the main door of the hospital.

Honestly, he regretted his decision to enter the hospital. There were too many people and he didn't want to go to the reception desk just to ask about the patient's room number. But he also can't go up and down the floor just to find one room.

Andrew took a deep breath and walked towards the reception desk. At the same time, he heard a noise from his right, which is the entrance to the Emergency room. He turned and saw several nurses pushing on a stretcher where a patient lay unconscious.

"We got an emergency call from St. Haven at fifteen twenty minutes. A thirty-three-year-old woman was found unconscious in the parking basement with a severe blow to the head."

Andrew's eyes widen when an officer mentions St. Haven. Suddenly, he walked to the ER where they took the patient. He hoped it wasn't Macy. Heck, it could be anyone. But he just wanted to make sure.

Andrew could not see the woman's face clearly. But he could hear a nurse asking about the patient's identity.

"Macy Bianca Cruz, Chief Editor of St. Havens."

Andrew's footsteps stopped. His body seemed to freeze. His breath hitched. His face began to look pale and his body was shaking. Macy is hurt. Again. How could that woman manage to get hurt at work?

A hard blow to the head...

Someone attacked her. Slowly Andrew's legs can be moved again. And unconsciously, he half ran to the ER. He needed to see how the woman was now.

When he entered the ER, he saw that there were so many patients, nurses and doctors passing by. But he just needs to find Macy.

"Macy, Macy Cruz... w-where is she?" he asked a nurse who almost hit him.

The nurse looked at him confusedly. "Macy Cruz? Ah, the patient from St. Haven? Unit number four at the end."

Andrew was about to go in the direction indicated, but the nurse held him back. "But what is your relationship with the patient?"

"I-I..."

Hell!! Does he have a relationship with Macy? It was just an easy question but Andrew couldn't answer.

"N-neighbor. I'm the neighbor."

"Can you contact her family? Her parents or maybe her husband?"

"S-she's divorced," Andrew stammered. "And I don't know her parents' phone numbers."

The nurse was silent for a moment. "Oh. You can see her but after the doctor performs an examination. For now, you should wait in the waiting room."

He wasn't surprised. Of course, the nurse wouldn't let him see Macy because he was just the woman's neighbor. The nurse then directed him to leave the ER and go to the waiting room outside.

*****

Jino and Paul arrive at the hospital and immediately rush to the ER.

But outside the ER, Jino sees a familiar figure. A man with a hat covering part of his face was standing outside with a very gloomy expression. Jino feels he recognizes the man, but he's not sure.
