He looked pretty rough and might cause trouble for your aunt." "I see, thanks. I'll head over right away to check on things." Cheryl was in the critical phase of her treatment, and considering how stress could affect the stomach, the last thing she needed was a family feud.
I ended the call and returned to the private room, whispering to Christine, "Chris, can you take over here? Something's cup with Aunt Cheryl. I need to check on her."
