Valerie was just about to probe for more details when a thought popped up in her mind. 'Is he telling the truth? What if he is deceiving me to use this opportunity to get out of here?' She wondered and stared at the man who held an evil glint in his eye. It was as though he knew what exactly was running in her mind. Her face said it all.

"You can choose not to believe me, Deputy. But you will soon learn what the truth is and you will eventually believe me." Jared said with such confidence that Valerie was now certain that he was not lying.
