525.Chapter 525

Vaughn looked at Eliza, his expression softening. "I see... Thank you again for saving me earlier. I do know where Hubert is, but if I take you there now, those people might spot us."

After hearing this, Vaughn finally relaxed completely.

Hubert had told him earlier that in his letter to his daughter, he had instructed her not to come to his aid. He had never asked her to come rescue him.

So, if Eliza had claimed to be Hubert's daughter right away, Vaughn wouldn't have trusted her so quickly.

Eliza reassured him, "Vaughn, don't worry. The spies around here have been dealt with. You can take me to Hubert. Also, if you know where Emmitt is, please tell me as well. I'd appreciate it."

With that, Eliza stood up and gave Vaughn a polite bow.

Vaughn immediately reached out to help her, shaking his head. "No need for that. It was nothing. I would have done the same for anyone, so please don't stand on ceremony."

But his face turned serious again as he added, "As for Emmitt, Hubert told me he was thrown into the water at the East Dock. With the recent rains, the currents have been rough. He was swept away. I've tried to search for him twice, but I haven't found him. It's been days now... I fear...*

Vaughn trailed off, his unspoken words hanging in the air. Eliza frowned immediately, but she didn't say much.

Though she suspected Emmitt was likely in grave danger, now that she was here, she couldn't give up without looking for him, especially not for Diana's sake.

Her mind raced, and she summoned half of her insects in Vollult Town to head towards the East Dock and the riverbank.

She even sent some of them with her magical water.

If they found Emmitt, she could bring him back from the brink of death, even if he only had the faintest breath left.

Once she had prepared, she signaled Vaughn to take her to Hubert.
