After Elaine fell asleep, Darnell tucked her in, grabbed his phone from the side, and walked to the balcony outside the living room.

 

He lit a cigarette, bit it between his lips, and dialed back the missed call from half an hour ago.

 

"Master of Riverside, Jon has caught on, but he hasn't said anything."

 

Darnell hmmed lightly and exhaled a puff of smoke: "Any movement from the Barret family."

 

"Not yet, but I've put the word out that Jon is in our hands, and the ones we suspected before, we've sent people to keep an eye on them, so once they react, we can do it immediately."

 

Darnell answered, hung up, dialed another number and ordered, "Get all the information on Bob Thomas completely organized and bring it to me tomorrow morning."

 

There was a slight pause on the other end of the phone and immediately said, "Yes."

 

The name Bob Thomas is both familiar and unfamiliar.

 

The familiarity is that he was once the unanimous target of them all.

 

What is strange is that this person, who has been dead for more than ten years.

 

When Darnell returned to the bedroom, Elaine was already asleep with her head buried under the covers, curled up in a ball.

 

He walked over and gently moved her head out.

 

Elaine's face was a little red from holding it in, and her eyebrows were slightly furrowed together, probably because she hadn't slept very well.

 

Darnell lifted the covers, lay down next to her, kissed her brow, and took the person in his arms.

 

He knew that she hadn't been happy for the past two years.

 

It's just that things are not completely resolved yet, so it's safest for her to stay in Switzerland at that time.

 

......

 

In the morning, Elaine and Darnell sat in the hotel restaurant, she took a bite of the snack in front of her and whispered to him, "These aren't as good as the ones I made, I'll make them for you when I get back."

 

Darnell laughed wordlessly, "Good."

 

Elaine was halfway through her meal when her phone vibrated. She looked at the screen and it was Aaron calling.
