When Heidi and Simon were taken to an old estate, Heidi was still in shock. She had struggled against the foreign bodyguards during the ride, even slapping one of them before finally calming down.

Both were shoved into a grand hall. The interior was timeless and elegant with ornate furnishings.

There, they saw a Cruznian man sitting on a couch.

Louis, who had just returned, eyed Heidi and asked in Cruznian, "Are you Shirley Olson?"
