“What is it?”

“Mr. Chivers, I have just received news that General Fletcher's battleship has turned back.”

The stunned Edmund narrowed his gaze slightly. “Turned back? Are you sure you haven't made a mistake?”

“I'm certain of it. Ms. Jefferson has also returned to Hallsbay. The moment I heard the news, I tracked her down and learned that she headed straight to Mr. Xuereb's medical base the moment she left the port.”

Edmund's brows furrowed in reflex. “Did you find out the reason for her visit?”
