Chapter 141: The Latest News On Thomas Stone.

"What?" Ivy asked, her mouth opened.

Despite Ivy's steady expression, Silas could hear the shock in her voice.

Silas's stomach turned as he ran a hand through his hair. He paced around the room, his mind racing with what to do next.

"What are you going to do?" Ivy asked, her eyes softening with concern.

"I don't know," he admitted, his heart pounding as he continued to pace. "Was that Thomas who called you?"

"Yes," he replied, his lips pursing as he remembered the terror in Thomas's voice.

They had just celebrated the end of one case, only to be thrown into something else.

"Where is he? What can we do?" Ivy asked frantically, her tone rising with more worry.

Silas groaned. How was he supposed to tell her that Thomas was already whisked off by the authorities?

"Say something, Silas," Ivy pleaded, snapping him into action.

"I... will call Wade," he said, reaching for his phone. He dialed Wade's number and waited for it to be answered.

"Hello, Silas," Wade said, his voice was hasty.

"Thomas just called me, he said-"

"Yes, he has been taken away from his home," Wade said, interrupting him. “I am just heading over there."

Silas stopped pacing, his voice shaking slightly. "What really is the problem?" he asked. From the corner of his eyes, he saw Ivy's forehead crease into a frown.

"Well, Evan Graves has come forward to say Thomas bribed him for the Crystal Residences. Apparently he had enough proof to back up his claim," Wade explained.

Silas groaned again, tapping his head in frustration. He took a breath before asking, "Is this true? Is this even possible?"

"I don't know. I haven't checked it out," Wade replied, his tone becoming serious. "When I get there, I will confirm everything and get back to you."

He clenched his fist, his frustration increasing. "That person is a liar. Thomas is innocent."

Wade sighed. "I can't confirm that yet, but with substantial evidence I-"

But Silas zoned out as Wade ranted on, explaining more legal jargons. He rubbed

his face, disbelief coursing through him.

His brother was innocent, he knew that.

"Are you there, Silas?"

Wade's voice snapped him out of thought. "Thank you Wade, let me know how
