“The business district?”
Those words made Tess knit her brows tightly.

“Wait.”
A sharp light shed in Tess’s eyes.
She said urgently, “Pull the cameras around Hunt Group first.”
Everyone froze at once, confusion in on their faces.
Lyra’s expression darkened. “You think Hunt Group got involved?”
“Yeah.”
Tess pressed her lips together, her gaze turning heavy. “In the business district, the Hunt Group and Lock Group headquarters take up most of the area. Finn has no reason to do this. The only one who’d dare be this arrogant is Max.”
Raven hesitated. “But why would Max do this? What does he gain from it? If Nichs and Rachel are taken from us, the biggest winner is Henry. And didn’t Max already fall out with Nadine?”
Tess let out a chillyugh. “You don’t know Max.
“To someone who only cares about profit, old grudges mean nothing when there’s money to be made.”
Tess pressed her lips together, her face grim.
Raven and Lyra both stiffened and turned to watch her.
“But what does Max get out of it?”
Raven still couldn’t wrap her head around it.
Tess curved her lips into a cold smile. “Simple. Whatever the Embers stand to gain, they can promise the same to Max.”

The moment she said that, both Raven and Lyra’s hearts sank.
“You mean…”
Lyra bit her lip, hesitating before saying the words. “The Larsons?”
“Yeah.”
Tess nodded.
The air went still.

She tapped the table, breaking the silence. “Where are they now? Have they stopped?”
That snapped Raven back to her senses. She hurried to check the monitor. Sure enough, the footage showed the car driving straight into Hunt Group’s underground parking garage.
“Now that we’re sure, what do we do?” Lyra’s face tightened. “Go demand them from Max?”
Tess said nothing. Her heart felt like it was hanging in midair, unable to settle.
She rubbed her temples and said irritably, “He won’t give them back. Or he’ll just deny it outright.
“With Max’s shameless personality, even if you shove the footage in his face, he’ll blink and say he knows nothing, that it isn’t his problem, and he can’t hand anyone over.”
A shadow fell over the room.
“Are we just gonna let this go? We already have almost all the evidence we need against the Embers, but whatever Nichs and Rachel go through after being taken will be hell. And for
Ken…”
Lyra couldn’t hide the concern in her eyes.
Back when they brought Ken back, it had been partly to stop Henry from sending more killers, and partly to pull Nichs and Rachel over to their side.
But time spent together always builds real feelings.
Tess felt a headacheing on too.
“I’ll go find them. This is my fault.”
Marc suddenly straightened and spoke like he’d made up his mind.

Raven was already irritated. The second Marc spoke up, she snapped.
You?”

She grabbed his cor and yanked him toward her. “A useless rich kid who can’t even keep an eye on two people. What good are you now?”
She was about to go on, but Lyra quickly pulled her back and gave her a look to stop.
Raven swallowed her anger, snorted, and turned her face away.
Marc and Raven had always been at odds, one sharp–tongued and the other never backing down. But this time. Marc knew he was wrong. He lowered his head and took her scolding in silence.
“Enough.”
Tess shook her head, stopping them both.
“From what Marc said, the delivery driver‘ showed up the moment he left. That means he had been waiting for a long time, ready to move. In a situation like that, the smallest slip can lead to disaster. Now that it’s happened, there’s no point arguing about who’s to me. The only thing that matters is fixing it.”
Her voice was cold and steady, and the others fell silent.
“We’re gonna get them back. But we still have to follow the original n. We can’t alert the
enemy.”
Tess’s face was tense.
“But how? Hunt Group isn’t some factory we can just sneak into. This really is like searching for a needle in a haystack.”
Raven pressed her temples in frustration, not even sparing Marc a nce.
“Maybe… we pretend nothing’s happened and lie low.”
Connor spoke up suddenly, his calm voice like a flowing stream.
“What do you mean?”
Tess asked.
Connor’s gentle gaze settled on her as he exined, “The Larsons have sent people. You
