Leila Bennett had indeed heard some news about her mother's illness.
But that was all.
He couldn't possibly get involved in everyone's personal affairs.
In the end, it had nothing to do with him, nor with Lucy Ansley.

Leila Bennett and Lucy Ansley arrived almost simultaneously.
Two cars stopped one after the other on the side road outside the alley. As Leila was unfastening her seatbelt, she looked up and saw her little cabbage getting out of a Mercedes minivan, and immediately frowned.

Leila got out of the car, walked up quickly, and clearly saw Thomas Chapman's somewhat handsome yet ingratiatingly smiling face through the crack in the door.
He spoke loudly, as if worried Lucy was deaf, "Little An, call me when you're done, I'll come pick you up."
Leila squinted her eyes and pulled Lucy over, "Him? Dr. Ronan?"
