"Again, not your fault. I didn't know Nigel Howland is your brother." [i]I did suspect that's the case, but it's not like I'm going to say that to your face,[/i] Hayley said to herself mentally, sighing and adding, "Our first meeting wasn't a very nice one. We had an argument, so to speak, and it sorta came down on its own. At least he seems to be doing just fine." Mulling over what happened and how quickly Nigel avoided a confrontation, she realized that the serious and dedicated killer did have a loved one of his own. In a way, she finally found a part of him she could sympathize with. "He seems really protective of you, though. I could only wish for a brother like him. Not that I'm complaining about being an only child, but it's nice to know that he cares for your well-being."
