Chapter 109: Saying Goodbye (2)

HALF AN HOUR LATER

"Help… please help…" 

Loriel's sharp ears heard Elise's soft pleading for help from the inside. He quickly motioned the nurses to enter and he opened the door.

When he walked inside, he saw Elise looking panicked. Daniel York was sitting on the bed, holding his chest with his hands and his face winced in pain.

The nurses quickly moved into action. One of them pulled Elise from her father. "Please step back, Miss." 

Another of the attendants quickly summoned a doctor with a call.

"Emergency. Patient York is currently experiencing arrhythmias--need for defibrillation from a doctor!" 

"Elise, I am here…" Loriel whispered. He pulled the woman into his arms and led her to step aside so the medical professionals could do their job.

"Please wait outside, Miss. We are trying to do our work," said one of the nurses politely.
