His words were incomprehensible. Before I could ask him what he was up to, he walked away.
This man had disrupted my peaceful time, and that certainly did not improve my mood.
Alice was pregnant?
Was the child Idris'?
There were some things that one could not remain indifferent to. Even though I presented myself as resolute and unconcerned in front of Lucas, how could I truly remain indifferent about the man I cared about?
This night was destined to be a restless one.
Nonetheless, time did not allow me to wallow in this discomfort. Two days later, Rebecca suddenly approached me and whispered, "Ms. Scott, someone wants to meet you."
I was momentarily taken aback, unable to comprehend the situation. I stared at her blankly, asking, "Meet me? Who?"
She pulled me aside mysteriously and led me for quite a while. Eventually, we got down to where the electric fence was set up at the base of the mountain. Electric fences surrounded the entire mountain to prevent the people inside from escaping and outsiders from entering.
To my surprise, I saw the peddler who had helped me pass messages on several occasions standing outside the electric fence.
The peddler looked at me from outside the fence and said, "Ms. Scott, your family has come."
I did not react immediately and then noticed a deeply tanned Gregory. At first, I did not recognize him until he looked at me and excitedly exclaimed, "Yvette, are you okay?"
His words reminded me of what Rebecca had mentioned previously about these poppies. They would be harvested and then sent to specific processing facilities before being distributed to various countries. If that were the case, we could potentially locate the exchange points, wait for their transactions, and catch them red-handed.
Looking at Gregory, I suggested, "Since we can't take action until they actually engage in transactions, we should wait for the moment these poppies are ready for harvest and being mass processed. They will undoubtedly conduct some big deals then. We can catch them in the act, and that would be enough evidence to incriminate Lucas."
Gregory nodded slightly but furrowed his brows, asking, "Ms. Scott, are you planning to continue staying here?"
I nodded and replied, "The poppies are gathered together for processing, and it won't be long before they finish. I'll find a way to locate the exchange points and notify you when the time comes."
After a pause, I remembered Chandler and added, "By the way, I encountered an old cop here who seemed to have been undercover for Kenneth for a long time. He was eventually discovered, but it's strange that Kenneth didn't kill him. Instead, he kept him here to torture him. Can you arrange for a chance to rescue him?"
