Standing by the window in his office, Tom wondered if he should have followed Lucy when she left or just stopped her from leaving entirely.
He had been to her office few minutes before calling Harry earlier, and seeing as she wasn't there, he had no idea where she had gone to.
He had trying calling but she wasn't picking up. His only source of comfort right now was knowing that her car was still in the parking lot, which meant she had not left the premises.
He had even gone to the storage room where she had hidden the last time to see if she was hiding there but she wasn't there either.
He couldn't say he was surprised by her reaction. He wasn't exactly disappointed either. This was Lucy after all. And if there was one thing he had learned about her, it was the fact that she liked to run away from her problems. She preferred to hide rather than face her challenges squarely, Tom thought with a sigh.
