Chapter 508: Liar

Wednesday—November 28

Damien dropped Katherine off to work that morning. When she alighted the Range Rover, she caught sight of the guard whom they scared last night. So she stopped by the cafe next to their office and ordered several cups of warm drinks for her, her teammates, and the guard.

Entering the company, Katherine carried drink carriers with four cups of warm drinks in each hand. She paused in front of the guard and turned to face him. "Here, take one. It looks like you need one," she said to the guard as she gestured to take a cup of coffee. At first, he declined, but when she insisted, he gave in and took one cup from the carrier.

"Thank you, Ma'am," he said.

"Rough night?" she asked, keeping her tone light. She saw the guard gulp audibly as though he was hesitant to say anything.

"I…" he sighed, and then kept his voice low so only they could hear. "I don't know if I should tell anyone, but Ma'am… I think this building is haunted."
