Chapter 1706
Randy spun toward her. "What did you find? You know where Erica is?"
"Back in Orkgate," Debra said, "Drake once used an underground tunnel to move me to a clothing store. That tunnel wasn't new, probably something the Illuminati built ages ago, like the creepy games at the gala."
"Makes sense." Randy's eyes lit up.
He shouted to the team, "Go. Look for hidden tunnels or anything like that."
The crew spread out, combing the place.
Debra started thinking harder. Marion noticed. "What's wrong?"
"It's still weird," she said, eyeing the setup. "This looks like Enoch's secret hideout. How did Mrs. Osborne find out? And everyone's gone. Your guys said no one left. So, where is everyone? They can't be all members of the Illuminati." Newest update provided by Find✶Novel.net
Randy chewed over her words, but he didn't care about that now.
Debra kept puzzling it out. If they were, then their earlier words were bunk.
She just couldn't figure out why that maid had brought up the kidnapping case from 20 years ago. Her head pounded as thoughts crashed together, none making sense.
"Wow, you've grown up so fast. I held you when you were a baby. Now you're married. Since you're here, stay here for the night. Let Andrew crash too."
"He's not Andrew? But you were..."
"You've never liked sweets, even as a kid."
Debra suddenly looked up at Jordan. "What else are you guys keeping from me?"
Jordan opened his mouth, but no words came out.
Marion had been shipped overseas as a kid, so there was no way Yvette could know him so well. And she'd mistaken him for Andrew more than once.
It didn't add up.
"Finding Erica is the priority right now," Jordan said. "We'll talk when we're back."
Debra knew he was hiding something. He had cut off Yvette every time she got close to spilling.
Before she could press, Randy burst in from the hallway, ecstatic. "We found it."
Jordan avoided her gaze. When she glanced at Marion, he looked away too.
"You won't tell me either?" she asked him.
"I promised someone I'd keep it quiet," Marion said softly. "But mostly, I don't want you to get hurt. Forgive me. This is the only thing I can't tell you."
"Waste no time. Let's go," Randy urged, dragging them out.
In the hallway, a decorative disk spun to reveal a hidden tunnel.
