She finished checking the system and looked at the two women as Julia handed
the computer to Sam before Claire turned her gaze toward Professor Rayne and
met his gaze squarely "Thank you but if it's all the same to both of you..
I'd rather not have to face either. Like I said earlier, when it started
going into areas that weren't related to Mister Jeffrettes we stopped. I
apologize that you're reasonably upset, but I'd be lying if I said I
wouldn't have done the same thing again for someone that's almost like
family to me - Brady or I for that matter."
She closed the laptop and waited for Sam to bring the other one over. She
had felt Brady stiffen behind her when the girl ended up being the one
carrying it but she smiled at Kat and had talked her through the systems

her gaze.
