The village of Winterbourne is just a stone's throw from Howard County.
They find the family that Mindy has determined for them to look for after achieving their goals.
A middle-aged woman opened the door for them. What sets her apart from other women her age are the burn scars that season her entire face.
He seemed to be somewhat afraid of their presence.
"Who are you looking for?"
The woman looked dumbfounded by the sudden arrival of Gerald and his friends.
He lowered his head to hide his scar, perhaps out of shame or perhaps out of fear of scaring strangers.
“Bu, nice to meet you. May I know if you are Xenia's cousin? She says that she asks you to keep something special for her. We're here to take it. He told us that you would understand him after reading this letter. ”
Jasmine walked over and said while handing him a letter.
The woman saw the letter. He then stole a few glances towards Jasmine before nodding in response.
“Alright, I understand now. You can take him with you. ”
The woman invites Gerald and his friends to her house.
It turned out that the item Xenia had asked to take was a large wooden crate.
They need at least a few people to carry that thing.
Hearing that, Gerald began to suspect whether Xenia was the maid he had been looking for all this time.
As for Stella, it didn't occur to her that Gerald and the others were here to do some menial work.
They're not here to have fun at all.
Therefore, he was somewhat disappointed.
After all, the woman's face was quite frightening. He peeked at the woman's face a few more times and goosebumps immediately appeared all over her skin.
Stella remained outside the house when Gerald and the others were moving the heavy crate.
Bored, he walked around the house.
Suddenly, Stella sees a convoy of expensive cars passing through the village entrance at high speed.
Stella is a brave but cautious girl.
He realized how strange the presence of this vehicle was.
It was because he noticed those cars on the way there.
But he could not make any conclusions at this moment.
From a distance, he saw the cars were filled with people. This aroused his curiosity.
“Gerald, there are many cars outside! And they are all full of people inside!”
said Stella.
"Aah?"
Mindy dumbfounded.
After which, he ran out to take a look immediately.
“Jasmine, Gerald, something's wrong. He's right! They came straight for us!”
Mindy jumped up and down anxiously.
Jasmine frowned slightly.
He's very careful. To play it safe, he even refrained from bringing his subordinates. She acted as if she had just come out with her friends on a nice little trip.
To his surprise, someone had been stalking their every move.
"What should we do now?"
Jasmine fear.
Gerald was confused, too. 'D*mn! I also did not bring my subordinates! Why are there so many groups of people?'
"Jasmine, you and the others immediately go to my room!"
At that moment, the woman whose face had a burn scar grabbed Jasmine's arm.
He took Gerald and the others to a room inside the house.
He raised the bed frame, revealing a hidden passageway underneath.
Jasmine looked at the woman with a puzzled expression.
The woman said, “My cousin has stayed a lot in the past. There will always be people coming to look for him, so we have hallways like this in both of our homes. Since my cousin has asked you to come and see me, I know that you have his trust. Come with me!”
Jasmine nodded.
Gerald could only look at the woman. He felt like he had met that woman somewhere in the past, and he looked familiar. But no matter how hard he tried, he could not remember where he had met him before.
He did not know whose tail he was stepping on this time, for them to directly approach him.
He could only jump into the hallway with the others.
Immediately, a group of men barged into the woman's house uninvited.
Obviously, they came for Jasmine and Mindy.
“Report you provided on time!”
