Chapter 24

Clara then remembered that Chase had been her father's attending physician. Without hesitation, she blurted out, “Dr. Chase, my dad, he’s passed out.”

“Stay calm. We're on our way.”

Half an hour later, Chase emerged from the emergency room, mask in hand, his eyes searching for Clara.

"He's out of immediate danger, but the outlook isn't great. His heart valve replacement from before wasn't maintained properly and it's led to an infection.

Heidi inched closer to Clara, her eyes shimmering with barely concealed triumph. Clara bit down hard, a cold smile spreading across her face.

“Heidi, didn’t anyone ever tell you that what goes around, comes around?”
