In the photo, Ivana Bennett was smiling radiantly, and not just in this picture, but in others on the table, too. She was always smiling in every photo.
Each picture captured her with an upturned lip, her face radiant and exuberant, as if there was always so much in the world to make her happy.
It was remarkable that not only had she managed to avoid falling into Shura's grasp, but she'd also managed to leave a scar on his face.
Initially, K had not paid much attention to Ivana. However, it was due to the scar posed by Shura that he began to grow interested in her.
The table was strewn with not just her photos but other pieces of information as well, although the data was scarce.
Like Lucas Walker before him, K was having great difficulty unearthing abundant details about Ivana.
Tossing the picture in his hand onto the pile of photos on the table, K began to speak lazily,
"I wonder if you can keep smiling until the end this time."
