Daniel caught her staring at his hands and wondered what she was thinking about when she should be eating.

"Do you expect me to feed you?" he asked and realizing she had been caught spacing out, her ears turned red and she shook her head hurriedly.

Her words were so shocking that they stopped to listen. "What nonsense are you sprouting? If I really tried to sell you, would I still be standing here and not in prison? I told you it was a misunderstanding," Old Madam Jones defended. She was uncomfortable with the eyes that had descended on her and immediately clarified. "Ah, that is true, there is no evidence so the police could only issue a restraining order against you. But that is not the first time you tried to sell me," she said and the old lady went pale, "It can't be that you think there is no evidence for that one, right?
