FAYE
I waited.
The call rang until it ended.
I stared at Sage's name on the screen for a few seconds, wondering if I should try again.
Maybe she was busy. Maybe she had stepped away from her phone.
That had to be the reason. I called once more. Again, there was no answer. After the second attempt, I decided to leave it.
I placed the phone back on the bed and let out a quiet breath. I would try again later. For now, I needed to get out of my own head.
The longer I stayed there, the more my thoughts kept returning to Helen. I pushed myself off the bed and walked toward the wardrobe.
I changed into a simple pair of pants and a t-shirt before leaving the room. My feet carried me toward Alexander's office almost automatically.
When I reached the door, I opened it without knocking.
Ale
