Yvette waited outside the hotel with Noah until most of the people had left. Still, there was no sign of Xavier.

"Could he have gone home alone? I'll call and check," Yvette said, picking up her phone to call Xavier. However, there was no answer.

Thinking she might have missed him, Yvette drove back home with Noah. It was a mere 20-minute drive.

But when they opened the door to the manor, everything was just as it had been when they'd left. The lights were still off.

Xavier hadn't come back yet.

"Mom, could something have happened to Mr. Xavier?" Noah suddenly asked.

When he'd been at the hotel, he'd noticed that the security seemed unusually tight, more so than in other places. It didn't feel like they were protecting someone, but rather as if they were trying to catch or stop someone. Hearing Noah's concern, Yvette decided to call Mark. It took a while before the call was answered.

Mark was still at the hospital. His girlfriend had been in a car accident and had suffered minor injuries, but luckily, she was okay.

"Is something the matter, Mrs. Lane?" he asked.

"Is Xavier with you right now?"
