"What is it?"

"I suspect that Mr. Jeremiah is involved in Mr. Xavier's disappearance. I can check Lumber Residence and a few other places, but when it comes to Mr. Jeremiah..." Mark hesitated, clearly uncomfortable.

As a subordinate, it would be highly inappropriate for him to pay Xavier's younger brother an uninvited visit. Besides, it wasn't feasible for him to cover so many locations in one night. Yvette didn't wait for him to finish before she nodded. "I'll go."

"Alright." Mark added, "If you run into any difficulties, you can reach out to Madam Shannon."

Shannon certainly wouldn't sit idly by if something happened to Xavier.

Yvette nodded again.

Only then did Mark feel reassured and set off with his men straight to Lumber Residence.

Whether or not the Lumber family was directly involved in Xavier's disappearance, they were undoubtedly connected to whatever had happened to him after the banquet.

Mark didn't waste time talking. "Where's Mr. Lane?"
