Chapter 126

"At the Myers Manor," Silas said, his voice smooth and inviting.

"Okay, let's head back and check it out," Calliope replied, waving goodbye to Rafferty and the others. She followed Silas, curiosity piquing her every step.

Fagan was driving, and Silas couldn't help but glance at Calliope. His eyes seemed glued to her as if she were the only thing in the world worth looking at.

Calliope propped her chin on her hand, deep in thought. "Something sent to the Myers Manor, too ostentatious to carry around... That means it's pretty big but not something fixed like a house or a yacht..." She squinted, pondering, "Could it be a car?"
