Chapter 32 Her Identity Exposed!

Silas Moon was nothing short of a marvel in getting things done, and soon, Galatea had Alaric's medical files in hand. The files were tucked under her arm as she exited the hospital. Just as she was sliding behind the steering wheel of her car, a voice called out from behind.
