"Ms. Quinlan, Ghania Quinlan's ward is in 3303." At that moment, Alfred Garland was jogging over to inform the girl of the room number he had found.

"Thanks for what." Alfred Garland glanced over at the man and said anxiously, "Ms. Quinlan, do you want me to accompany you inside later on?"
"No need, I want to handle this myself." Nathalie Quinlan's delicate brows and eyes carried a frivolous air, and her tone sounded very calm.
