How is the boy now? Is he okay? Where are we going, the hospital?
Sabrinas questions echoed without a response.
The van continued its journey until it reached a hospital, where it parked in front of a hospital wing.
The burly men quickly disembarked the vehicle, and the Leader instructed Sabrina with a stony face, Get out and follow me.
Sabrina hopped out and helped Jennie climb out of the van. They followed the leader as they made their way to the fourth floor of the inpatient building and stopped in front of a ward.
The leader gestured for Sabrina to wait outside. He then entered the room and reported, Theyre here.
Let them in, a womans voice from within the room ordered, sounding similar to the voice on the phone.
Sabrina gave Jennie a reassuring smile and held her hand as they entered the room.
In the ward, a pale-faced little boy lay on the bed, his vulnerable condition evident.
By the bedside was a woman with impeccable makeup. She wore a white suit paired with high-heeled shoes. Her hair was neatly fastened at the nape of her neck. She exuded an air of noble elegance and appeared to be in her forties.
The extravagance of her clothes, shoes, bag, and jewelry indicated a penchant for luxury and meticulous self-care, which suggested she might be older and was of a higher social status.

Why ask when you already know?

The womans lips curled into a sneer.
Youre quite headstrong.
Youll soon learn the cost of your stubbornness.
Thats not your concern, Sabrina shot back.
The woman shifted her attention to Jennie and queried, Is she your daughter?
Sabrina instinctively shielded Jennie behind her.
Enough with the chatter. Why have you brought us here?
The woman narrowed her eyes at her and demanded, Apologize to him!
Sabrinas resolve remained firm as she glanced at the boy on the bed.
