As she spoke, she looked up at Josiah, who hadn’t forgotten to grab his phone before leaving. She gestured for him to hand it over to her.

“Josiah, Dr. Thome, you both are good people, but these bad guys supposedly work for a big corporation called Guerra Group. They are powerful and if they find out you’re helping, they might just come after you!
