Sean and Eliana had escaped from Gerald’s villa.

It was pitch dark outside but they could make out the silhouette of the car waiting for them. Sean pushed Eliana inside the car. He did it so fast that Eliana was not able to get a good look at the car.

Two burly men dressed in black were already in the car.

“Aileen!” Eliana blurted. She was worried about Aileen. “I need to know how she is. Let me call Maurice.”

She took out her phone and began to tap the dial pad.

“No! You can’t call him!” Sean then held Eliana’s hand to prevent her from using her phone.

“Why not?”

Eliana eyed Sean suspiciously. She now came back to her senses.

“Because… Because…” Sean was trying to think of a palatable excuse for Eliana. “Your phone… Your phone is being monitored!”

“Monitored?” Eliana was shocked.

“Yeah, they are keeping track of your movement. Using your phone will alert them of where you are. So turn off your phone, Miss Pierce. Now!”

Sean couldn’t believe how fast he had thought of an excuse. He was quite proud of his quick reaction. He let out a soft sigh.

Eliana was beginning to think that something seemed wrong.
