They were thirty hours away from the launch of the rescue operation.

Theodore called Sydney and Wesley over for a talk in the living room. With his solemn expression, the atmosphere was very tense.

"I called you two over because I have something very important to tell you."

"What is it?" Wesley asked.

"If I were to die, please take good care of Steve."

Shock registered on both their faces when they heard Theodore's words.

"Theo, what do you mean by that?" Sydney asked. "What happened? You've been acting so secretively as of late. I don't see you and can't even reach you. In fact, I can't reach Rose, either."

She sensed that something major had happened, but no one was telling her what it was. She even tried contacting Christopher to understand what was going on, but he refused to breathe a word about it.

The rescue operation had to be kept under wraps. Theodore and Christopher hid it from everyone else for fear of unnecessary complications and information leaks. They couldn't afford a single mistake.

All the more Theodore couldn't tell Sydney about it. What if she told Sebastian? He couldn't risk it.
