Avery thought that she was dreaming, as she struggled to understand what Mike has just said.
She was sitting at home so what could possibly happen to her?
Mike did not get any response from her and asked, "Avery, when you went to Caesar Hotel back then, did you meet with a man for 'that' kind of thing?"
"What kind of thing?"
"It's that... kind of thing..." Mike couldn't bring himself to be too direct, but she soon realized what he was referring to from the way he was stuttering.
"What makes you say that?" She walked towards her room with the phone in her hand. "Mike, what exactly happened?" "I'll send you a video. Check and see if that's you in it." Worried that she might get upset after watching it, he hastily added, "I know that you are not the woman in the video, but the resemblance is just too uncanny..."
At this point, Avery could roughly guess what had happened. She hung up and opened the video Mike sent her after taking a deep breath.
The voice of the woman in the video was the first thing she heard and the familiar sound made her hair stand.
'How can this be? What does this woman sound exactly like me?' She thought.
Suddenly, she was reminded of what Zoe said before she committed suicide. She said that after her eyes were gouged out, she heard Avery's voice. Perhaps it was not a hallucination, but the truth.
Everyone had thought that Zoe went mad, but she didn't; the one that was insane was the person who had been plotting in the dark to defeat Avery.
She studied the woman in the video and soon realized that not only did they have similar voices, but faces as well
She instantly thought of Nora and the possibility of it being her, but when Avery looked down and saw the pregnant belly of the woman in the video, she saw stars.
The woman in the video had her eyes open
