Chapter 26

The next afternoon, Eloise got discharged from the hospital. She held her phone tightly, debating whether to call Harvey or send him a message to say thanks.

After a bit of hesitation, she decided to ditch the idea altogether.

Eloise completed the discharge procedures, grabbed her luggage to head home first, and then planned to return to the Crescendo Sound Workshop later that afternoon to get back to work.
