Damien heaved a sigh and said, “Our deepest apologies. The Wicked Palace is heavily guarded, so this photo’s the only thing we could get.”

When John saw their dejected faces, he scoffed. “Nothing else? How useless!”

 
 

Everyone fell silent at his remarks.

Right then, Jeremy argued in defiance. “Mr. Lindt, I wouldn’t say that if I were you. Maybe you’re not even at our level, and you couldn’t even bring back a photograph.”

John frowned. “How can you be so sure? Maybe I could’ve brought Nellie out from the Wicked Palace and sent her to Mr. Seet.”
