Parker burst into laughter, waving the letter theatrically. “Seriously? What is this nonsense?” he said between chuckles. “Who writes such a long–winded letter to threaten someone? It’s like they’re auditioning for a dramatic villain role!”

Ethan sighed, his glare intensifying. “Guys…” he said, his tone laced with a warning.

Ethan relaxed a fraction but still looked pensive. “What about tracing this person?” he asked.

James sighed, his expression turning grim. “I’ve tried everything, Ethan. Just like you said, this person is meticulous. They covered their tracks so well, I couldn’t find a single lead.”
