Hawk's expression subtly changed, and he said steadily, "Don't be afraid, where are you? I'll come to get you."
"Military District Hospital, I'm heading towards your place." She steadied her emotions, buttoned her coat tightly, and carefully protected her belly as she slipped out of the hospital under the cover of night.
Hawk was still working overtime at the research institute. Hearing this, he frowned at the night outside and said, "It's too late, walking isn't safe. The Military District Hospital is very close to me; you should take a taxi here, and I'll come down to meet you. Keep the phone on, don't hang up."
Crystal nodded, hailed a cab, gave the address of the research institute, and kept talking to Hawk on the phone.
