Lily dropped Madolyn off at Jeffrey's after Woody's call, sensing that something was terribly wrong with Jordan. On the way to Jeffrey's, Lily placed a called to the morgue and told Bug what was going on.
"Do not go inside her building until we know what is going on. I'm on my way," Bug had said. Nigel and Kate were in the room with him at could tell by the tone of Bug's voice that something was not right. Bug told them what Lily had said. They already knew that the social worker, Rick Bennett, had been killed as his body was on the way to the morgue so it was pretty clear to them why Woody was so concerned for Jordan's safety. Bug, Nigel and Kate quickly left the building and got into Nigel's car and headed for Jordan's apartment building.

Garret Macy was informed of Rick Bennett's murder soon after the police arrived on scene, but it was not until a frantic Nigel, Bug, and Kate ran by and told him of the danger of the danger Jordan was in, that he knew she was in serious trouble. Kate, concerned about Macy's health, urged him to stay behind at the morgue and wait for word from them. Garret lied and said he would, but as soon as the three were out of sight, he grabbed his car keys and headed for the garage. Jordan was always there for him and he was going to be there for her. As he pressed his foot down on the accelerator, he grabbed his cell phone and put in a quick call to Jordan's father, who had only recently moved back to Boston.
"Max, where are you?"
"Hey, Macy. Good to hear from you. I'm at the site of my new bar. How's Abb…" he bagan, but Garret cut him off.
"This isn't a social call, Max. Jordan is in big trouble. You need to get over to her building now."
"What's going on? What's wrong with my daughter?" Max asked frantically.
"I don't have time to explain, just get over there." Garret Macy said as he hung up the phone.
This isn't much of a chapter and the conclusion will be coming sometime in the next couple of days, but I'm busy with work, school, and Cardinals baseball games (as I am a season ticket holder) so it doesn't leave much time to write. I hope to have the remainder of the story up by this weekend at the latest. Thanks for your patience and I appreciate the reviews!
