The couple continued to hug each other lovingly.
The people on the other side of the screen were emotionally moved by that scene. None of them dared to make a peep.
Suddenly, Jonathan's phone rang.
In response, he stepped out of the laboratory and peered at the screen.
It was from Frieda.
He knew Frieda disliked Roxanne, and she only helped track Peregrine down because he asked her to.
Why is she calling me right now? Frowning, he hesitated for a few moments before answering the call.
“Are you at the hospital right now, Jonathan?” Frieda inquired the moment the call connected.
When Shawn didn't hear anything about or couldn't reach Peregrine for a few days after the latter reached Horington, he asked her to call Jonathan to ask about the situation.
When Jonathan heard her bringing up the hospital, he was rather confused. “What do you want to ask about?”
“How's Dr. Jarvis' situation right now? Has she woken up yet?” asked Frieda.
