While Lucinda scrutinized the figures outside, Sonny busied himself with a mission of his own.
He meticulously inspected every nook and cranny of the room.
Eventually, his thorough search yielded three discreet monitoring devices, which he promptly arranged on the tea table.
Closing and locking the windows, Sonny rejoined Lucinda on the sofa as she grabbed one of the devices in frustration.
“He’s full of tricks! He’s even monitoring my bedroom like a creep!
What a scumbag!”
Lucinda exclaimed, flinging the bug in her hand.
Sonny swiftly caught it.

“Please don’t throw it away. I remember exactly where he placed them and we’ll put them back after we’re done talking. Kyson is clever and suspicious. Even if you argue with him about this, he’ll relent and find other sneaky ways to keep an eye on us.”
Hearing this, she nodded as a calm determination settled over her.
“Open the suitcases and let’s see what items they have confiscated.”

Sonny promptly pushed the suitcases closer, unveiling the aftermath of the search.
Almost all of their devices had been seized, save for a small plane which was an exquisite gift from her brother, Graham.
Lucinda had previously disregarded it, unaware of its hidden secret.
Only recently had she learned that it was a sophisticated bomb requiring a unique operation to detonate.
Its cleverly concealed construction rendered it undetectable by any security check or inspection.
Graham, being an exceptional captain, was well-versed in such tricks.
Gently caressing the emerald ring adorning her right hand, Lucinda furrowed her brow, lost in deep thought.
Sonny sighed, voicing their predicament, “We have nothing now, except for the two small self-defense weapons your brothers gave you. It’s doubtful that they’ll be enough for us to steal the antidote.
Furthermore, we have no means of communication. We are completely isolated. Miss Simmons, what do you plan to do?”
She remained silent for a long moment. This journey had proven far more challenging than she had anticipated.
However, she was not one to shy away from difficulties. In fact, she embraced them head-on.
“Don’t worry. Now that we’re here, we can strategize once we meet Kyson,” she assured Sonny, determination lacing her voice.
Sonny nodded, acknowledging her resolve, and proceeded to share the information he had gathered about the royal family of Pilatis. As they delved into their plans, their isolated surroundings reminded them of their vulnerable position.
