Do you really have to involve Edward, asked Alex in a high voice. They were waiting for Edward to completw the sample extraction. Liz exhaled and sadly said you don't understand our situation. Their father and son bond is not something that can be broken, Liz declared. When Edward came out of thw extraction room she left the two and went to check on Andy.

Don't judge Liz until you get all the facts straight, Edward told Alex. Be sure to check all of our blood chem resumts before making any nasty decisions.
