Clarisse was truly in unbearable pain. Her stomach was churning and twisting, causing her such agony that she was nearly writhing on the floor. Wooden Drucker could sense that something was wrong and urgently said, "I'll be back right away!"
Then he hung up the phone. She felt a bit grateful that Wooden Drucker cared enough to rush back. If he had ignored her, she feared she might actually die from the pain right there.
After hanging up Wooden Drucker's call, she indeed began rolling on the floor, clutching her stomach in unbearable pain. When Wooden Drucker rushed in, the first thing he saw was this scene, which startled him. He hurried over to help her up.
"Annie, hang in there, I'll take you to the hospital right away!"
She opened her eyes, somewhat surprised to see Wooden Drucker.
"You... how did you get back so quickly?"
