Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 375

Thankfully, Lowell picked up quickly.

"Hey, Ms. Thorne, Tarquin and I are at the hospital; Elijah's here too."

"I know, how's Elijah doing right now?"

Lowell sounded tense, "I'm no doctor, and I'm out of my depth here, but I saw Dr. Benjamin and some other doctors surrounding Elijah, giving him medication."

"Are you in his room?"

"No, I'm standing outside."

"Get in there! I'm starting a video call!"

Elysia couldn't wait any longer, knowing how quickly Elijah's condition could turn critical! That was her Elijah, her own son; she couldn't let anything happen to him!

As soon as Elysia dialed the video call, Lowell immediately answered,

"Ms. Thorne, I'm in the room, what do you want to see?"

The camera shook, and Elysia saw Tarquin standing grim-faced in front of the bed, a mix of tension and helplessness in his posture. He was a father, but not a doctor. With his son ill, all he could do was worry.

Elysia didn't want to see him, "Point the camera at Elijah."

Lowell complied, and the camera now showed Elijah on the bed, his complexion ghostly pale. The little guy was convulsing, with beads of sweat on his forehead, and his brows furrowed as if in severe discomfort.

Elysia's tears started flowing uncontrollably... She shivered, forcing herself to calm down! Rudely wiping away the tears that blurred her vision, she choked out,

"Hand your phone to Dr. Benjamin; he knows what I need to see."

"Right away." Lowell quickly handed the phone to Benjamin.
