Travis crumpled to the ground, his legs giving out as he cried in anguish.
The search and rescue operation lasted over 10 hours before they located Denver and Dorothy.
The black Chevrolet was completely destroyed, and Dorothy had perished instantly.
When the rescue team reached Denver, he was barely clinging to life, unconscious with faint vital signs.
Leslie's final glimpse of Denver was as he lay on a stretcher.
Battered and bloodied.
Unresponsive.
Given the circumstances, Leslie and Raegan promptly ended their trip and headed back to Los Angeles.
She repeatedly contacted Travis, inquiring about Denver's status.
He consistently reported that the outlook was grim, with the hospital issuing multiple critical condition alerts.
She longed to visit him, but Travis always provided reasons to prevent her.
Feeling helpless and worried, Leslie reached her breaking point.
One day, ignoring Travis's protests, she attempted to enter the VIP ward.
