Lila shrugged. "All I know is I woke up somewhere new, maybe a house like the one the old man talked about... alone but for Simms who was laid up in a hospital type bed. They left me instructions on how to take care of him, and as long as I did what They told me to do, I would be rewarded with my freedom. He was unconscious for most of my time there with some heavy bandaging around his throat. IV, a couple machines. When he was finally awake, it took him some time to be able to talk again without a lot of pain. He told me a little about what happened at the house after I was gone, about what happened in the prison. He remembered being stabbed by Tobias... having trouble breathing and passing out...and then waking up... wherever I decide to say I was."
She waved her hand dismissively. "If there are some things that happened while Simms was still in the house that I can't find on the network, that might help some of the legitimacy of Simms talking to me. Even things in the prison that people didn't discuss specifically on the network." She arched a brow at Felix. "What holes do I need to fill there? I'm not a nurse, but it's not out of the realm of possibility that they made sure he would live before passing him off on me. And this was my reward... freedom. Lucky me."
