Joseph, staring at the portrait on the wall, asked casually, "Where is she? Did she spill the beans?"

James didn't say a word, prompting Joseph to turn around. James was a mess, blood everywhere. He tossed a blood-stained knife at Joseph's feet, his voice icy. "She's dead."

The news of Sophie's death hit Joseph like a ton of bricks. "Dead?" he echoed, his face shifting with disbelief. He lunged at James, clutching his collar. "I told you to get information, not kill her! Did you get the address? Talk!"
