Keeping Her Options Open

"What happened?" Lila asked curiously, "We were just talking on the phone last night..."

"Remain calm..." Mason held onto Lila as he handed her his phone.

The news was already out: the supermodel Gina had been attacked by a dog while protecting her daughter. She had bites all over her leg and was at risk of amputation.

The incident happened too suddenly. It was a bit hard for Lila to accept, "Could it be someone with a similar name?"

"Gina is currently at the hospital. I'll take you there in a moment," Mason suggested. He knew that she'd want to confirm Gina's condition personally.

"Wait a bit, Mase...I'm still in shock."

Lila sat down on the edge of her bed and looked at the phone in detail again.

"This was an accident. They've already found the owner of the dog. It happened because the owner owns an aggressive breed of dog, but forgot to chain it up."
