I had already changed into my normal clothes. As per my nurse, if she got the green light from my doctor, I would finally be able to leave the hospital. Three days laying on a bed with nothing to do but surf through the same five channels was becoming a little bit annoying. My nurse came striding into my room with a smile which definitely meant that there was good news.
"So Jadelyn, your test results came back alright, you're free to go home."
I sat up straight from the bed and stood up.
"My pleasure," I said as I grabbed my coat from the hook and joined my mum outside the hospital room.
"Are you ready to go?" She asked enthusiastically.
"Yup."
After a few more formalities; signing and paying, I walked out of the hospital, got into the car and drove away. Each and every word Liam told me kept lingering at the back of my mind. I still could not wrap my head around the fact that Logan might be a cold blooded killer. I needed evidence and proof to back up Liam's information. Above all else, I needed to put an end to Ricardo and my dad before Logan does it himself.
Before pulling up into the driveway I asked, "Mum, can I go to Hailee's house after? I have some catching up to do with my school work."
"No problem but be safe alright. I don't want to take another trip to the hospital, nonetheless the morgue."
I nodded in agreement at her morbid comment and went inside to take a shower.
I texted Hailee instantly to inform her that I used her as an excuse to get out of the house.
"Need to head over to Hexagon so I told my mum I would be coming over at your place, back up my story?"
It was not long before I got a reply.
"Of course I will, but please be careful alright, I hate seeing you in ugly washed out hospital clothes."
I chuckled and placed my phone back down on my nightstand.
I changed into some black skinny jeans, a dark blue top and my black leather jacket. I grabbed my car keys and headed downstairs.
"I won't take long mum I promise."
"Jade, please be careful."
By the time she was telling me to be safe and reciting the post-hospital regulations, I was already out of the house, slamming the door behind me out of habit.
I got into the car, pulled out of the drive way and raced away. I carelessly parked in the alley, images of Friday night flashing through my mind. I shook them away and walked to the elevator.
Upon reaching the base my heart sunk as the elevator doors opened. I no longer saw it the way I used to see it. All of its glory had died, it all looked strange and new. I no longer knew the people I was working with for half a year now, and that hurt the most.
I walked towards my desk, Lexi stopping me half way.
"Hey Basic,"
"Hey Lexi."
"Didn't see you on Friday or yesterday, are you okay?"
"Yeah I'm fine, minor headache that's it," I lied.
I looked towards Logan's office and saw that it was empty.
"Where's Logan?" I queried.
"He just left like 15 minutes ago."
"Any clue on when he will be back?"
"Umm nope."
I simply nodded and sat on my chair. I needed to get in contact with my father as soon as possible. Not that I was too ecstatic to see him, my father is literally the worst company I could be in.
