Chapter 71

  GRACIE 

  "What about the dead cop? Do you have the information I wanted about him? "

  His words sent my heart hammering hard in a wave of shock,  I didn't realize when I took a shaky step backwards,  by doing so my back crashed against the door. 

  He turned around swiftly , I was met with his icy cold  expression which vanished as soon as he saw me .

  He approached me slowly,  his shackling me to my spot. 

  "What are you doing here? " he spoke quietly. Was that anxiety I heard in his voice? 

  I tried to but unable to control the wave of doubt and fear pulsating through me.

  The room felt so suffocating,  I couldn't breathe. 

  Oh god. Let me be wrong,  it couldn't have been...

  Had he been present when Shawn died? 

  How could it be that much of a coincidence that he died on the same day,  right after he had met me?

  Also my cellphone....

  "You knew I met him" I stated in a matter of factly, unable to tear my gaze away from his.
