Charlie left Zoe's office and headed to reception where he saw Louise, noel, Tess, max, fletch and Connie talking, he walked over and they suddenly stopped.
"Right I am going to talk to Zoe" said Tess
"Me too" said Connie
Charlie stopped him and everyone just looked at him
"What" said Tess?
"I wouldn't go in there if I was you" said Charlie "or at least give her a couple of minutes"
"Why" said Tess
"She has got an email" said Charlie
"Charlie in case you haven't noticed it is the 21st century and not that UN common to get an email" said Connie
"No, it's from America" said Charlie "subject nick Jordan"
Everyone went silent all thinking different things then Tess spoke
"And you are thinking the worse" said Tess
"Yep" said Charlie putting his hand on his head
Suddenly Zoe came out of her office with a white piece of paper in her hands, Zoe had red eyes and it was very obvious that she had been crying
"Zoe" said Connie
Zoe dried her eyes once more and handed the piece of paper to Charlie; Charlie opened it up and saw that it was a copy of the email Zoe had received.
"Zoe are you sure you want me to read this" said Charlie
"Please" said Zoe
Charlie started to read the letter out
Dear Miss Hanna
This is Dr John Hamilton from cancer ward soodbroke hospital, American
I am contacting you on a request of a patient Mr. Nick Jordan, mar Jordan has took ill as there are very serious complications. Mr. Jordan has requested that you phone him as the doctor's estimate that he has about a week left.
Regards Dr Hamilton
As soon as Charlie had finished Zoe basically ran to her office and burst into tears, Charlie lowered the letter and looked at the rest of the staff who were shocked, Charlie and Tess ran after Zoe and into her office
"Right well we better get back to work" said Louise
"I thought Mr. Jordan had an year left" said noel
"Up to a year" said Connie correcting him
"Let's all just get back to work" said fletch "try and keep our minds off it"
"Agreed" said max who was worried about Zoe
Everyone got back to work with nick Jordan on their minds and max was the only one who was thinking about zoe too but he knew that he couldn't go and see if she is ok until Tess and Charlie had gone from her office and max knew that even after that Connie would probably be there. Meanwhile I zoe's office Tess and Charlie were sitting down facing zoe who was yet again drying her eyes not wanting to let Tess and Charlie know that nick Jordan had reduced her to tears but Charlie and Tess knew that nick had reduced zoe to tears many times, zoe looked at them, she was tired of sitting in her office feeling sorry for herself and nick, she knew that she had to do something.
"What about an all-expenses paid trip to America for the 3 of us" said Zoe?
"What" said Tess?
"Well we don't want are nick Jorden dying in an empty room" said zoe "do we?"
"Definitely not" said Tess smiling "I'm in"
"I'm in" said Charlie smiling
Zoe desperately wanted max to come too, to support her but she knew that she would only be away a week and that it would be very suspicious so she stood up, dried her eyes once more and walked out into reception, Tess and Charlie followed and watch as zoe stole the computer from noel and went to get them some last minute flights.
"What are you doing" said noel
"Finding flights for me, Tess and Charlie to America" said Zoe
"You 3 are going to America?" said Louise
"Well I am not letting are nick Jorden die in a room full of strangers" said Zoe
Zoe looked at max that was smiling, not because he was happy that Zoe was going to America, it was because max was happy that Zoe cared that much and that even though nick just asked for a simple phone call Zoe was going to give him more than that as she was prepared to fly out to America.
