Alyssa felt her heart sank at that information. She was plagued by unease.

Jasper demanded. "Where did she go in that car?"

"She didn't go anywhere. After a while, they sent her back to her rental. She did not step out of the house for three days after that—not even taking out the trash.

"By then, our men realized something was off. They broke into her place and found her missing. She didn't even pack her bags."

Alyssa questioned, "How about her passport and identity card?"
