‘Was it Howard?‘ Elijah wondered.

Elijah frowned and instructed Leon coldly, “Keep looking. Send someone to check on Howard too. As soon as you find anything, notify me immediately.”

“Yes, Mr. Lawson.” Leon nodded, though his expression seemed reluctant.

Seeing that Leon was still there, Elijah was puzzled. “Why are you still here? Is there anything else to report?”
