Chapter 0036 Aria gestured toward the door .
We have to go now , Jasper .
Theres no time for games .
Piper works at the hospital .
If she needs me , thats where we have to go .
The hospital … ? I felt like my brain was offline , all of my thoughts still enamored with her .
Yes , she said , giving me a flat look .
Can you take me , or should I call a cab ? No , I can take you , I said quickly .
Focus , Jasper , damn it .
Pulling open the door , I motioned for her to go first .
As soon as she did , I followed her out , closing the door behind me .
In my car , as we near the hospital , Aria waved toward the curb in the front .
You can just leave me here .
Who will take you home ? I asked .
Ill call a cab .
I scoffed .
I was curious about what she was doing here , but I also wasnt ready for my night with her to end just yet .
Whatever she was doing here in this hospital , I wanted to see it .
Its really okay , she said , with a tiny edge to her voice now .
Was I making her nervous by insisting ? Why would that be ? Wouldnt she be happy to have a reliable way home ? I dont mind waiting .
Here .
Ill park and we can go in together .
Her features scrunched for a moment , like she was trying to figure out a way to turn me down .
After a moment , she sighed .
Fine .
I cant waste time .
Fortunately , the hospital at this time of day wasnt busy .
After parking , Aria hopped out of the car and rushed toward the doors .
I quickly fell in step beside her .
Is Piper a patient ? I asked .
Maybe Aria needed to visit her for some reason .
No , Aria replied .
She works here .
Oh… That didnt answer any of my questions .
In fact , it generated a few more .
We rushed to the elevator and inside , Aria pushed the button for the third floor .
Up and up we went , then exited .

I followed Aria left down the hallway and around a corner .
Eventually we stopped outside of a Healers office .
But not just any healer .
This was the office for Dr.
A.
Inside the office , the illustrious Dr.
A was standing near the back of the room .
Behind the reception desk was Arias roommate and friend , Cathy .
Wed met before , earlier that night .
When she spotted Aria , she breathed a sigh of obvious relief .
That look hardened the moment she fook in me at her side .
Before Aria could explain my presence to Catly , or Arias need to be in Dr.
As office to me , the others in the room turned to gawk at us .
There were a half dozen middle aged men and women , all dressed to the nines in expensive clothing and jewelry .
Id seen this family around before , as wed sometimes traversed the same social circles .
They were always too stuffy for my tastes .
They just loved flaunting their wealth and rubbing in how their patriarch Caleb was a great military genius , a hero of the pack ! The man had to be in his 80s by now , and rarely left the house .
Yet these leeches seemed to love milking his reputation for all it was worth .
For them to be here in Dr.
As office on an evening like tonight meant something had to be wrong with dear old 1/2 .

Maybe he was finally seeing the end to the tunnel .
Luna , you are friends with Dr.
A ? one of the men said .
He was Calebs oldest son , the snottiest of the bunch , in my opinion .
Yes , Aria said .
Whats going on ? My father is dying , the man said .
Dr.
A is being slow to act .
You must convince her to step in .
