In Aryadelle, George drove to the hospital to ask the medical staff about the girl who jumped into the river.
"Are you a member of her family?" the nurse asked.
George was stunned for a while before nodding. "I'm her friend. How is she doing right now?" "She's still being resuscitated. Are you going to help her pay for her medical fees? Or are you going to contact her family to get them to make a trip here?" George said without any hesitation, "I'll pay.

"Are you the patient's family?" the doctor asked. "She's not dead, but she needs to stay in the hospital." George responded with "Oh." When he saw Leah open her eyes, he let out a sigh of relief.
