Jack looked at Chad expectantly. The information he had just obtained opened a ray of hope that made him re-energized.

"How can you be sure that Leo knows where Elena is?"

The Latin-faced young man looked up while holding his chin. "That time...she came here early in the morning. I happened to come to the restaurant early because I had to stock up on ingredients that were running low. I heard her talking to a man."

He wanted to shake Chad by the shoulders to get to the point.

"So?" he urged impatiently.

"I was eavesdropping, of course. I think anyone in my position would be curious, right?"

"Tsk! Can't you just get to the point? I don't have much time," Jack snapped with bulging eyes, making Chad immediately falter.

"Ah, yes, sorry. I heard Ms. Elena wanted to go far away, but not let anyone know. Then Mr. Leo talked about a private helicopter. After that, I hurriedly left because I heard the sound of the door of that room being opened from inside," Chad replied then grimaced unpleasa

    Even though Edward asked in a normal tone, Elena jumped in surprise. It was as if the man had shouted. This aroused her father's suspicion."Eh? I didn't see anything. Just... I just saw a dog running by," Elena replied, stammering slightly.She looked back at the spot, but the man was no longer there. David Foster. Her brow furrowed. Why was David here? Was it David who had incapacitated those strangers?"Where have you been?" Jack asked.Elena immediately shifted her gaze. She thought Jack was asking her, but it turned out he was addressing a few people with eagle tattoos on their left necks."We were looking for someone who managed to escape. He passed by the back of the mansion earlier. After we searched, he wasn’t anywhere,” one of them replied. “What? How is that possible? The back fence of the mansion is so high and equipped with sharp metal bars electrified with high voltage. There’s no way that person could have escaped. He must still be around here,” Rendy objected. “Che

    "Don't joke around!" Evan stared at Nathan in horror as he pushed his shoulder."Who's joking?" Nathan said with a straight face."Bro, don't mess around! You have to face Jack. He won't like this," Evan warned with wide eyes."Why not? There's no rule against liking someone.""But she's your boss's wife! You're really..."Evan narrowed his eyes when he saw Nathan's left eye twitch slightly. Annoyed, the man hit Nathan's shoulder."You almost gave me a heart attack! Don't ever do that in front of Jack. Never!" Evan warned seriously.Nathan smirked. His left eye did twitch at the corner when he was lying. "Anyone would like Elena. Only a fool like Lucas would waste a woman like her. Even David is crazy about her." Evan sighed deeply. The man scratched his right eyebrow. "Yeah, you're right. That woman doesn't even have to try hard to attract the opposite sex. Jack even turned away from Rose because of that scandal." Nathan snorted. "I didn't think Jack was that kind of guy." Me

    "How's the situation around here?" Brandon had just arrived when Nathan finished directing the bomb disposal officers to the locations where the bombs were placed.They didn't want to be caught off guard again. The incident at the campus theater building had forced them to act more swiftly yet cautiously."I've found where all the bombs are. Nicklaus' men aren't very smart. I wonder which company he recruited all those guards from." Nathan chuckled as he continued to watch the officers.The FBI bomb disposal team used a remotely controlled bomb disposal robot, while the police bomb disposal team, already wearing special suits, combed through the entire building to find any other possible bombs."How did you know there was a bomb in this building?" Brandon asked, keeping his focus on his subordinates securing Nicklaus' men. "David Foster." Brandon turned to him with a complicated expression. They knew David was highly skilled in bomb-making, in addition to his expertise as a sniper

    Elena almost fainted again, but she pulled herself together. Her hands gripped her father's arm tightly for support."But Nicklaus' secret is still at my father's mansion. Let's go there first," Elena said."I don't want to take any chances. It's better to go straight to my mansion. Besides, the safe is fireproof and impact-resistant. Even if someone finds it, they won't be able to open it," Jack explained. "Grab your things and leave immediately.""Jack is right, sweety. Besides, I'm the only one who knows about the secret room in that bedroom. None of the servants or housekeepers know about it," Edward agreed.Elena thought hard. What if the video had already spread? If David and Jennifer already knew, it was likely that David's men also knew. They could look up her GPA at the university and her father's wedding date at the Civil Registry Office.Suddenly, her mind flashed back to the magnetic card she had held earlier. Ah, yes. Without that card, the safe still couldn't be opened.

    "Why the rush? We can open the safe tomorrow," Elena said as she followed her father, who was walking quickly into the Pierce family mansion."Elena, don't walk so fast!" Jack scolded from behind her."I don't know. I suddenly felt that I had to find that magnetic card now. I've been feeling restless since earlier," her father replied. The man immediately walked away and went up to the second floor where Alexander's room was.Mia, Elena's former personal maid, hurriedly approached them."Why didn't you say that you were coming here, Ma'am? We're still in the middle of preparing dinner," Mia said, who now served as the head maid, with a panicked expression. After Matthew Patt and Miranda Kiehl were arrested, the servants hired by the two of them were immediately dismissed by Alan. Only the servants recruited by Alexander and Elena remained, including Mia."It's okay, Mia. We just want to take something," Elena replied."You're already heavily pregnant! Let me get you some milk and fr

    David knew it wasn't easy to convince others to trust him after what he had done. Trust was like glass. Once it was broken, it could never be repaired. And he was experiencing that firsthand now. No matter how good his intentions were, others would still be suspicious and distrustful."I'm not lying. Elena's safety is in danger. She could be killed.""She’ll be in danger if you get near her, you psychopath!" Nathan snapped. The man kept his gun pointed at him."I’m serious." David raised both hands. "Listen, I am obsessed with her. You found the cameras in her room yourself. But now, there’s something more important.""You're cunning and manipulative, Dave. You'll do anything to achieve your goals. I know your nature. You're just trying to divert attention." Nathan snorted derisively.David cursed inwardly. At a critical moment like this, he wasn't trusted at all."Listen, I didn't waste my time coming here just to talk nonsense. I could go straight to Elena. But no. I know that bast
