Still, it was a good thing, so Alex Grant didn't dwell on it.
"Evelyn Grant? That's my sister! What happened to her?!"
Hearing the call was from a hospital, Alex Grant's heart leaped into his throat.
"She collapsed from overwork and was brought to the hospital. Can a family member come over?"
"Yes! I'll be right there!"
Alex Grant put down his phone and immediately ran toward his teacher's office.
He knocked on the door and, forgetting about politeness, rushed to say to the homeroom teacher sitting inside, "Teacher! My sister's been hospitalized, and she's all alone. The hospital just called and told me to get there right away!"
"But you have class this afternoon! Why don't you contact your parents?" The homeroom teacher was naturally reluctant to let one of their students miss class.
"I can't. My mom's health isn't good either. If she gets too anxious and worked up, she might have a heart attack."
