As she concluded her narrative, Lindsay emerged from the hospital room, having tended to her injuries.

Stella remembered the doctors words in detail and asked him about the condition of Lindsays injury.

Stella breathed a sigh of relief. After thanking the doctor, she took Lindsay to the cashier to pay the bill and then went to the pharmacy to get the medicine.
