Two days went by, and the atmosphere was filled with a blend of anticipation and routine. Harry Gaskins had initially asked Vaughn for twelve hours to gather the necessary proof of his innocence, but then he called to request more time.. three days... to ensure he left no stone unturned. Vaughn, understanding the complexity of such an investigation, agreed.
During those two days, Eliza found herself drawn to the training room more and more. She would visit daily to watch Jannie's shooting practice. There was something mesmerizing about the way Jannie moved, her precision and calm demeanor in stark contrast to the chaos Eliza had recently experienced. Vaughn admired Eliza's growing curiosity from a distance. He could see the spark in her eyes as she watched Jannie, but he didn't rush her. He knew she needed time to process everything and to find her own comfort zone.
