Delphine watched as the entire floor bustled with detectives coming and going, interrogating everyone involved. Members of the Leclair Family were present, and someone carried out a body covered with a white cloth. Her face turned pale instantly as she gripped the wall beside the elevator for support. Her stomach felt a sharp, dragging pain, and she nearly collapsed.
"Miss Delphine, Miss Delphine." Finnian dared not touch her, his face changing drastically as he noticed something was wrong. He quickly shouted down the corridor for Ignatius.
Delphine was in such pain that she couldn't breathe; her vision darkened. Before losing consciousness, the last thing she saw was the man's pale and terrified face.
"Call the doctor!" The man's hands shook as he carried her, his bloodshot eyes filled with urgency.
"The patient has lost consciousness."
"Her water has broken. Prepare for a cesarean section."
"Delphine, Delphine."
