CHAPTER 4 — SHE SAW HIM

CHAPTER 4 — SHE SAW HIM

David stormed into the security room.

"Show me yesterday's footage."

The technician frowned.

"That's strange..."

"The cameras around the pool..."

"...were disabled."

"When?"

"Exactly twelve minutes."

David clenched his fists.

"Twelve minutes is enough..."

"...to kill a child."

Behind him—

A slow clap echoed through the hallway.

Claire.

She leaned against the door.

"You've become suspicious."

David took one step forward.

"Did you erase the footage?"

Claire smiled.

"No."

"I just knew..."

"...someone else would."

David's expression changed.

"Someone else?"

Claire tilted her head.

"You keep asking what I did."

She lowered her voice.

"You've never asked..."

"...who was standing on that balcony before I arrived."

David went completely still.
