Chapter 252: Compelling Witness

"You couldn't help what happened before," Graeme said, although he had trouble feeling the truth of the words.

Was she truly blameless in everything? It was hard to comprehend.

"But you can help us now," he finished. "Tell us about this Zagan character. If he is coming after August, what can we expect?"

That's right. He would be coming here for August, but that meant he might also come for her. Zoe's eyes dilated in fear.

"You can expect it to be flawless," she answered him, staring like a deer in headlights. "He can't be stopped."

Graeme bristled at the suggestion that they had no chance. That was impossible.

"Why do you say that?"

"He's been around for centuries. Maybe longer… he passed all of that knowledge into me that I had, all of that skill and logic and flawless execution. If Andreas would have let me, I could have done so much worse than I did. So much worse," she shook her head, mouth hanging open at the stunning realization.
