The library was quiet and only her, Ashley and some librarian staffs inside the building. She turned around to take a sight on her surroundings.

She inhaled and felt suspicious that the taxi driver man wasn’t the real Davis Adams as the name tag on the taxi’s dashboard. ‘What and where were the red thread that I could see their connection? I didn’t sniff any coincidences otherwise everything seemed to be orchestrated,’ her mind became more alert for something absurd laid beyond as the shower water sprinkled on her. ‘Isn’t Mrs. Ruth’s house sold?’ Elena sniffed somethin
