In her past life, Joel Quincy had died young from cancer. The root cause was long-term exposure in the lab; the radioactive materials had taken their toll on his body. By the time he passed away, his entire body was covered in sores.
Eight remained silent for a long time, and Chloe Sinclair grew increasingly anxious.
