Daniel’s silver gaze slowly lifted toward the heavens. "The Witness." The name sent a violent ripple through the network, causing billions of connected minds to react instinctively.

I was beginning to hate his frequent pauses, but I didn't speak on it. Then he finally spoke. "I found a witness." "A witness?" My pulse spiked instantly. “A witness?” "Someone who knew Daisy's parents." All around me, the office vanished. I could no longer see the shattered dishes, the ruined lunch, the e maid.

“One hundred percent. Our witness added a man was there to stop her from killing more. The description fits with Zach, Logan.” Logan closed his eyes. Those two people just wouldn’t let him breathe. “Hand me the pictures.” “Here, but it’s blurry because our witness took it from afar.” Adam placed three pictures on the table. Although it was blurry, they still could recognize Nevea very well.
