Just then, the light turned green and the car behind them honked impatiently.

Orion snapped back to his senses and quickly drove off.

Lemira glanced at him, about to ask something, but at that moment her phone rang.

She answered right away and put it on speaker. “Debby, what’s going on?”

“We just found out the money Evelina transferred has disappeared,” Debby reported.

“Disappeared? What do you mean?” Lemira’s heart sank. “Did Evelina’s father move the money?”

“We’re not sure yet—we’ve put a team on tracking where it went,” Debby replied.

None of them had expected that, at this point, someone would still be after the trail of that money.

Orion’s tone was icy cold. “What exactly are you all being paid for if you can miss something this important?”

“I’m sorry, Mr. Everhart, it was our mistake. We assumed since the suspect was on the run, he’d be focused on hiding. We didn’t expect him to be bold enough to move the money too.”

Debby’s voice was tense; they knew this was a serious oversight.

Orion said sharply, “Find him. I don’t care what it takes—track him down!”

“Yes, sir.”

Debby ended the call abruptly.

Staring at her phone, Lemira thought for a moment and said, “Take me back to my apartment. I’ll investigate this myself.”

If the money was moved, there had to be a trace left behind.

Orion pressed the accelerator and, before long, they arrived at the apartment Lemira had purchased earlier.

Lemira kicked off her shoes and rushed barefoot into her study, immediately powering up her computer.

She called Debby again. “Sync all the data to me.”

“Right away.”
