In the hospital room.
Edward Jones watched the family's bewildered expressions and felt the pain from his wounds intensify, almost cursing out loud.
He tried to calm himself, "Send her the hospital's address and the room number; tell her to come to the hospital immediately. We can negotiate the price."
Each word Edward spoke seemed to complicate the expressions on Spencer Jones and the Jones family's faces even more.
The room: "..."
So she isn't his girlfriend? Unrequited love? So pitiful that he had to use money to make her visit him in the hospital.
Edward Jones: "..."
Seeing their expressions left him speechless; the pain from his wounds became even more pronounced, making him too miserable to even explain.
He simply closed his eyes, conserving his words, and lay on the hospital bed resting.
