Chapter 202: Finding The Whistleblower -2
"There was an accident in the factory he started working at, and he has been missing ever since," Damien informed, still on the call with his men.
Everyone in the room tensed at his words, feeling bad for Elias. They all believed he was truly evil like his mom, but the poor guy did it to help his sister out. The atmosphere grew serious and tense.
Evelyn stumbled back, tears forming in the corner of her eyes. Zevian held her and helped her sit down while Kiana moved closer to her mommy in worry.
"What do you mean he is working in a factory?" Avery asked, taking a step forward. Why the heck would Eli work in a factory?
Damien finished talking with his subordinates and ordered, "Keep searching for him. I need his whereabouts by midnight."
"It’s all my fault," Evelyn murmured, tears trickling down her face. Running her hands through her hair, she continued blaming herself, "He... he had been my only support, and I doubted him... I easily believed he was evil too and even hated him."
Zevian’s heart ached for his wife, and he pulled her closer, hugging her tightly. "Shhh." He caressed her back and murmured, "We will find him at all costs."
Now that they could put the pieces together, it really seemed like Elias was Sophia’s whistleblower. That young boy must have sided with his mom to uncover all her sins, eventually helping them find Gracia. Zevian recalled how he had kept texting them, worried about bringing Gracia there and insisting she might end up in danger again. They had all failed to recognize him.
"It’s Barton town, a few meters down the city," Damien told Lucius, ordering him to send more men to search for Elias.
"I will ask them to make deals with the local gangs there. It will be easier to find him," Lucius suggested, gesturing to his assistant to get the map.
Damien nodded in agreement. "Yes, that would be better." Glancing at Evelyn, who was completely broken, he sighed and murmured, "Evelyn looks devastated. We should find him quickly."
Lucius hummed and ended the call. Gathering the experts in their clan, he quickly put together a plan to search for Elias.
