    Keira’s POV Matthias didn't look happy by my attempt at deflecting. “Keira. If you are having problems, it’s better to not stay silent about it,” his tone turned a little more serious, clearly displeased. It felt like I was being scolded. I hesitated.

    LYDIAI chose a quiet corner table at the coffee shop downtown when I arrived.All the account numbers from my past life easily came back to me then. I had seen every single one of these records during the embezzlement investigation, how couldn't I when the prosecutors had shown me page after page of transactions that all supposedly traced back to me?I remembered the real account numbers too, the ones that actually belonged to Vanessa, and I typed them out, one by one. Account 4782-9341-6628. Account 5593-2847-1104. There were three more after that.Then came the dates. March 15th. April 3rd. May 22nd.
