Gordon seemed to understand something, "Have you found any clues, Ms. Wilkin?"

Otherwise, Lenora wouldn't have come looking for him nearly a decade after Fernando's death.

He had initially thought that the capital tycoons, whom Fernando had offended, were behind this. However, he was surprised to find out that it was actually related to that kidnapping case.
