Sheryl looked at him in disbelief; he had said that with such ease almost as if killing people was an everyday activity. She shifted her gaze to Seth; he had no look of remorse for what he had done.
‘These guys were monsters’ she thought.
Her mind went to her biological parents; she suddenly felt guilty for resenting them all these years. She had thought they hadn’t wanted her; that maybe she hadn’t been good enough for them but all this time she had been blaming them for abandoning her but they never did.
“But Seth isn’t all bad; he did let you live after all” Jack said in the same casual tone.
Sheryl was silent. There were countless emotions she was feeling. She was angry with Seth for killing her parents but she was also angry with them for discovering the formula. If it hadn’t been discovered Seth wouldn’t have killed them because he wouldn’t have been looking for them in the first place and she would have been with them; she would have known them and grown up with them.
“I think we have chatted enough; now time to get to work” Jack said getting up from the chair he was sitting in.
“What are you going to do to me?” Sheryl asked quietly.
“First we are going to see if you really have the formula” Jack said in a serious tone.
