The nurse who had attended Francis Holbrook for many months. She appeared stunned and confused that the doctor is verdict. I just can't believe it, Doctor. That she could take her own life after we've worked so.

Struggled to bring her back to health. Mrs. Holbrook was more than an invalid alien. She was tired. I can believe it. Mr. Holbrook, he'll be terribly shocked. I think it will be easier if you tell him, Lillian.

It will be gentler that way. I'll go downstairs. Call his office. I'll wait. Tell him to come at once. It's going well, isn't it, Lillian? Very well. And there's even a certain pleasure that you're the one to call Ralph Holgrove, explained.

You almost wish you could tell him more. Especially as you sense the relief he displays instead of outright shock or grief. Yes. You'll know that Ralph is actually glad that his wife Francis is dead.
