Jedrick ended the call and turned to face Roger, who lay on the floor still. He then turned to the elderly woman, who shivered under his ferocious stare, and smiled manically.

Ceceli, who had never experienced violence before, was deeply affected by seeing a shooting.

Gabriel helped her get settled on the bed, but she kept mumbling the same things.

"I cannot be his daughter. He isn't my father. It is all a lie."

Gabriel knew it was unbelievable, but they couldn't refute the fact that their DNA did not match. He knew Jedrick could manipulate people, but his allegation stuck with him.
