paused, clearly skeptical. “What are you on about? Did Whitney put you up to this?”

It’s truk. Whitney was abducted on her way to Banyan City Prison. Mr. L, if you don’t believe me, check if Elaine’s even at the office”

Doubt gnawing at him. Ludwik sent Felix to look for Elaine.

Felix returned with news. “Elaine left the office about 20 minutes ago and said she was grabbing some coffee”

Ludwik’s brooding brow furrowed even deeper, a chill settling in his gaze.

“Mr. L we need to hurry and save Whitney! I’m right downstairs from your office.”

The towering man stepped out of the corporate building. “Felix, gather a team.”

Whitney’s safety was paramount.

Ludwik climbed into Tiana’s car, and with the tracker leading the way, she floored it.

Meanwhile, in a farmhouse on the outskirts, Whitney was tossed into a corner by two men.

They hastily rummaged through her laptop and some documents before making their exit.

Elaine appeared behind the house, her eyes cold as ice. She powered up the laptop, and there it was – recordings of Monica, Yvonne, and Valerie, as well as surveillance footage of Monica conversing with her at the hospital!

The documents were evidences of the shady dealings over Monica’s preliminary contest submissions.

Another item caught her eye- a photo she had given to the laborer’s family of Whitney. And now it had fallen into Whitney’s hands.

She had to destroy the evidence herself to be at ease.

After setting everything ablaze, Elaine prepared to make a swift exit.
