When Aurora rushed into the hospital, the hearse from the funeral home pulled up at the same time.
Craig was standing alone outside the ER doors, looking lost and isolated.
He wasn’t crying—he just stood there in silence, staring at nothing, until Aurora’s hurried footsteps finally caught his attention.
“You’re here,” he said quietly.
“Yeah.” Aurora walked over, her lips parting as if to say something, but the words just wouldn’t come.
She knew exactly what Amelie meant to Craig.
Aside from Elijah, his son, his mom was the only family he had left in the world.
For years, Craig had worked himself to the bone—late nights, early mornings, double shifts—just to pay for his mother’s treatments. Fixing her, keeping her alive, had become his whole purpose.
And now, suddenly, it was all over.
No way back.
Aurora looked up at him, hesitating before gently touching his hand. “She’s free now, you know? She’s been stuck in hospitals for years, with no real life of her own. She hated the smell of antiseptics. She told me she felt trapped.”
She tried to sound comforting, but she knew nothing she said could actually make this easier for Craig.
Then suddenly, Craig turned and pulled Aurora into a fierce hug.
Her first instinct was to pull away, but then she felt something cold and wet on her shoulder.
Craig was crying.
“My mom told me, so many times, she didn’t want to keep fighting. She said if she ended up in the ER again, I should just let her go, but... I just couldn’t.”

Why didn't Jeffrey call Everett from the office? Lock his door instruct security to not let anyone in and speak to Everett on the phone? Or send him a text giving him a quick summary of what's up and that he's on his way over. That way when he runs into Heather on his way out he informs her Everett already knows....
