Chapter 1944


    There were no dividing walls in the basement, and one could see the entire room clearly.


    "Mr. Felix, I don''t see Mr. Foster anywhere!" the bodyguard said.


    Ben and Chad paced around the basement as well and noticed that though there were no walls,


    there was another passage.


    "There''s a really small passage over here!" Chad shouted at Nick.


    Nick immediately sent his bodyguard over, who crawled inside and returned in twenty minutes.


    "Mr. Felix, the entrance is blocked and I can''t get past it!" "Go outside and circle back to see what''s


    going on with the exit!" Nick ordered.


    While the bodyguard went outside to search for the exit, Nick looked at Ben and Chad. "Let’s go


    outside! I will get my men to search this whole ce all over again! If we still can''t find anything, we


    can always tear it all down and expose the basement so that we can search every corner..."


    N?velDrama.Org is the owner.


    Ben scowled in confusion. "Not only is Elliot missing, but is the prisoner they took with them."


    "Yeah! That''s what I''m thinking as well! I wonder if Avery..." Nick paused hesitantly. He was not


    certain if Avery was still alive. Hayden had been swift, and as soon as he hadid eyes on Avery,


    Hayden had already taken her away. The others did not even have a chance to ask him anything,


    let alone check if she was still breathing.


    "She has to be alive," Chad mumbled. "It''s only been six days... It''s not like it''s been six months..."


    Nick and Ben could not bring themselves to respond to his murmur.


    Even if one could survive in such a dark and confined space without food or water, her mind would


    still be gued by paranoia.


    The three exited the basement.


    The bodyguard came over with two signal blockers. "Mr. Felix, we found a few signal blockers in the


    bushes nearby!"


    "Fuck!" Ben snatched the device and studied it. He mmed it onto the ground and crushed it


    beneath his boot. "It''s no wonder we couldn''t find them! Who was it?! Who locked them in that


    basement?! I''m going to kill those b*st*rds!”


    Nick frowned at the signal blocker that was in pieces on the ground. "It''s probably not someone


    from that organization. If it was, would they have used something like this?"


    "Who, then?!" Ben questioned.


    "I don''t know... But my instinct tells me that it''s not them! The organization disassembled long ago,a&,PKW? apart from that one woman who escaped, everyone else was sentenced to death!" Nick


    said. "If it was anyone from that organization that came across Elliot and Avery, they would have


    murdered them in the most brutal manner possible by now, but I don''t recall seeing any wound on


    Avery."


    A thought popped up in Chad''s mind as he listened to Nick. "Avery was wearing Mr. Foster''s shirt!"


    He eximed and turned to Ben. "Ben! Did you see that? The white shirt Avery was wearing


    belongs to Mr.


    Foster!"


    Ben was only looking at Avery''s face at the time and did not notice what she was wearing. "I only


    noticed that she was wearing white-"


    "That belongs to Mr. Foster because Avery does not own a shirt that big!" Chills ran down his spine


    and Chad''s eyes glittered with tears.


    At the same moment, a bodyguard ran over to Nick and said, "Mr. Felix, the other exit from the


    basement leads straight to the well on the ground, but the well is sealed!"


    All strength was instantly drained from Chad and he fell into Ben''s arms.
