Annabelle Leighton put all her work on hold and stayed with Morgan Hayes in Brieridge for ten days.
Isla Prescott was baffled. What on earth had happened to make Annabelle stay away for so long? Her worries were finally put to rest when Annabelle sent her a picture of Morgan Hayes.
Ten days later, Morgan Hayes was discharged from the hospital.
The Brieridge Police Station arranged for a car to take Morgan Hayes back to Meritopia, and Annabelle Leighton returned with him.
With ten days of work piled up at the studio, Annabelle Leighton went straight into overtime mode the moment she got back. But no matter how late she worked, she texted Morgan Hayes every day to check on his recovery.
Morgan Hayes would reply to her texts, but he never initiated contact himself.
Annabelle Leighton didn't mind, though. After all, he hadn't even replied to her texts before.
'Well, at least it's a little progress.'
