Jevan broke the silence as he waved his hand:
"Inspector...! What brings you here? Has your little vacation come to an end? Or did you miss me?"
How did he know? The mission I had been sent on was highly classified. I turned my head toward Lionel. I saw him swallow hard as he tried to avoid my eyes, and at that moment I understood who had told him.
I turned my gaze back to Jevan:
"What happened while I was away?"
He pointed a finger at Lionel:
"Why don't you ask him? He was there before me, and he escaped before me."
I turned once more to Lionel, who was still avoiding my eyes, and said:
"Is what he's saying true?"
Lionel nodded:
"True."
I sighed, then turned and left without uttering a word.

I watched Edward Graves leave. His cowardly assistant followed, closing the metal cell door behind him. They just left that easily?
That was unexpected.
