Rebecca: [Yes.]
Max’s fingers tapped on his phone: [I’ll have Jack pick you up at 3:30 PM.]
Rebecca replied with an “Okay”
But she couldn’t help but wonder, ‘Didn’t he tell me to keep my distance from Jack? So why is he sending Jack to pick me up now?‘
Once Max saw her reply, he updated his grandfather Sebastian, and after finishing up his tasks, he called Winston. “Any updates on what I asked you to investigate?”
“The person you asked me to look into is in Jelasburg,” Winston reported, laying out everything he knew. “And that person has a connection with Stephen Hanson from the Hanson family.”
Max’s brows furrowed.
‘Stephen Hanson?‘ Max thought, surprised.
‘How could she be tangled up with Stephen Hanson?‘ he wondered, doubt flickering in his mind.
“What kind of connection?” Max asked, his voice low and sharp.
“Not sure yet,” Winston answered, treading carefully because he knew this person meant something to Max. “All I can tell is, she’s staying at a place owned by Stephen Hanson–and nobody else knows about it.”
Max’s lips pressed into a thin, hard line, and the air around him turned icy cold.
After a long pause, he finally spoke, his voice completely devoid of emotion.
“Got it,” he said, his tone flat and unreadable.
Winston asked out of habit, “Should I keep digging?”
Max answered flatly, “No, that’s enough.”
Winston replied, “Understood.”
And just like that, the call ended.
Even after ending the call, Max couldn’t calm down. Instead, his mind was restless, a storm of doubts swirling inside him, getting stronger with every wild guess.
At three o’clock in the afternoon, Rebecca was wide awake.
After lunch, Jessica and Ian headed out, leaving Rebecca alone with Amelia, who started listing all the things
