Capítulo 76: Don't Forget to Take Your Medicine

After a moment of silence, he said in an extremely faint voice, "I'm your brother-in-law." He paused for a moment and then said in a gentle tone, "Selena was very worried about you last night."

The word 'brother-in-law' reminded her that he was questioning her from a slightly more authoritative and removed perspective.

Before John Grant could say anything, she had already hung up the phone. Her grip on her phone tightened as she stared at the darkened screen. It felt as if her heart had gone numb.
