Chapter 908

Hearing that name, Mr. and Mrs. Abernathy's hearts pounded in unison, fiercely and rapidly. There was excitement, anxiety, and even more worry!

"Elvis, did you meet up with Elsie?!" Evadne asked anxiously.

"No, it was Elsie who sent me this video on my phone."

Elvis's voice was hoarse and broken, "Evadne, I'm really scared. I'm afraid something might happen to Elsie!"

"Elvis, if the video was just sent to you, then Ms. Archer should be safe for now. Don't worry too much at the moment," Thaddeus comforted upon hearing this.

"For now... but what about later?"

Elvis gritted his teeth in determination, "I have to rescue Ellie from that hellhole!"

"Elvis, you can't act recklessly now! If you do, you might just draw the fire towards Elsie, making her situation even more dangerous. After all, she's still in Avery's clutches!"

Evadne's eyes were piercing, her decision swift, "This video getting out might not necessarily be traced back to Elsie. But if you act impulsively, it would be like telling Avery that Elsie is the traitor. He could get rid of Elsie in a heartbeat, and your connections won't be of any use!"

Elvis took a deep breath, managing to calm down somewhat.

"Elvis, rest assured, the moment the time is right, Evadne and I will do everything in our power to help you rescue Ms. Archer."

Coming from someone else, it might have been empty talk. But when Thaddeus said it, it was a vow that gave Elvis immense comfort: "Thank you, Thaddeus. Your word means everything to me."

Upon receiving the news, the Chief who was still at the Skyrim Agency rushed back overnight and ordered Aaron to immediately release Director-General Wayne and publicly apologize.

"Let's forget the apology; after all, Captain Ashbourne was only considering my safety."

Wayne, adopting a forgiving demeanor in front of the Chief, walked out of the interrogation room with a high and mighty air, "Let's put an end to this matter. I'm fine. And I hope, Chief, you won't pursue Captain Ashbourne's responsibility."
