A week later...
Jessie peered out the window as Din's car came to a stop in front of the mansion, and as she saw the building, a smile crept across her lips. She hadn't visited or seen the mansion in a very long time, and she had missed it.
After a week of strategizing to avoid being discovered by the family, the doctor approved Jessie's discharge from the hospital. Din reasoned that if the doctor had given Jessie a quicker discharge, the family would have known something was wrong, so he had instead chosen to give her another week.
"Gentle." Taylor assisted Jessie in exiting the car. A week ago, Bev told her the news, and she was overjoyed to hear it. She had abandoned everything she was doing at work to hurriedly visit Jessie at the hospital. Additionally, she had advised Jessie to call or visit her mother in order to prevent her mother from learning that something had been wrong with Jessie for the previous month.
