After Leo got off the phone with with Josh's mom, He called Hoynes being Josh's boss he needed to know. As hard as it was telling Kate, he knew the Senator should be a walk in the park.
"Hello" answered Angela his secretary.
"Hi Angela, this is Leo Mcgary may I please speak to the Senator please, it's an emergency."
"Give me a minute, may I ask exactly what it is about."
"It's Josh it's very important."
Within 2 minutes the senator one line. "What's wrong, is everything ok? Is it Josh, is he ok, is he hurt?"
Leo's heart broke this guy was truly worried. Whether it was for the right reasons who knows. He truly sounds concerned. Josh means so much to so many people.
"Josh was in a head on collision about 2hrs ago. I asked the hospital to let me make the phone calls. I called his family first, than you. He's in a coma, he has 5 broken ribs, a punctured lung and a blood clot near the brain. The doctors aren't to optimistic that he will make it."
The line was silent for for a few minutes before the senator finally spoke. "He has to pull through he has his future ahead of him. He has his daughter to think of what will happen to her if he doesn't pull through. Oh my lord I just remembered she was in the car with him! Any idea what happened to Brookelyn?"
Leo was out of his seat in a heart beat, can it be how did he forget about baby Brookelyn? "I don't know they didn't mention her on the phone figured she may be with her mom. But forgot it wasn't her week. How could I forget about her?"
"Do you think Katherine could of done this and taken her daughter away? They have been fighting for custody and it seemed like the courts were ready to grant full custody to Josh next week. If she wasn't happy about this I wouldn't put it past her to do something like this."
"I agree that lady is crazy. We got to find out I'll let you know as soon as I find out anything. Will call hospital now and head straight over to Katherine's when I get off the phone depending on what the doctor's say."
Once he got off the phone he called the hospital to inquire about baby Brooke. Just as they feared she was not found at the scene of the accident. This cant be good lord protect that child, and strengthen Josh.
He called Hoynes and gave him the update "I just called the police they have put a bolo out on her car. Heading over to her house now to see what I can find out. 2 police officers are meeting me there."
"Ok keep me posted, I'll go to the hospital and check on Josh, Will let you know when I get there."
"Thought you might I called ahead and told them you were going and I would be there as soon as I can. You have been cleared to gain any information they can give you."
"Thank you Leo god speed"
"You also Senator."
