“How malicious…”

Gradually, Josie began to piece everything together, standing up more confidently as she did so. It became evident to her that Ava was acting out of a desperate attempt to protect someone at all costs. Prodding for more information from Ava seemed futile.

Upon digesting these words, Ava instinctively recoiled, visibly taken aback.
