Tyler and Rachel found out from the police that it was Elias who alerted them. Without Ellas‘ help, the police wouldn’t have been able to appear in such a short time.
As they sat on a plane back to Yurelia City, Rachel thanked Elias once more.
“Dr. Elias, thank you so much this time. How did you know we were abducted?”
Elias looked to be in much better spirits, probably because he was finally out and about under the sun after so long. Rachel admired him for that.
Normal people probably wouldn’t be able to tolerate staying at home and never seeing the light of day for just one month. She wondered how Elias was able to do that for so many years.
Aside from his psychological issues, he was perfectly fine physically.
Elias chuckled.
“I have security cameras installed outside my place. It’s not to guard against people like you, but because of cyberbullying and paparazzi. They don’t appear as much nowadays, but uninstalling the cameras was a hassle, and I just left them be.
“When you guys were taken away, my dog sensed the commotion and started barking wildly. I took a look at the camera footage. The expression on the man’s face didn’t seem right when he talked to

Rachel heaved a sigh of relief at Elias‘ recounting.

Rachel’s words seemed to lift the veil from his eyes.
Soon, the plane safely landed in Yurelia City.

she could sense a change in Tyler’s face that looked like bad news.
The sullen look remained on his face even after he hung up. Rachel approached him and asked, ” What happened? Is it Cecilia…”
“Nothing to do with Cecilia. It’s Mr. Ziegler. He found out that Howard was nabbed and would probably be convicted. His blood pressure rose so quickly that he had a stroke. He was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment, but he passed away there.”
Rachel’s face fell as well.
