Drake glanced at Peter and ordered, "Go to the safe and bring me my phone."
"Got it," Peter replied, rattled by Debra's earlier remarks.
He hurried off, running down the hall toward the inner storage compartment.
Debra watched him leave, her expression calm but her mind calculating. As long as there was a phone on this ship, she had a chance.
Before long, Peter came rushing back, Drake's phone in hand.
Drake powered on the phone, and within seconds, notifications began lighting up the screen. Debra's instincts had been right. The incident had already made headlines across various media platforms. People were speculating about a possible terrorist attack, and the police had launched an investigation.
Peter swallowed nervously. The Lowe family had long been involved with shady business. If the authorities followed the trail back to them, it would be disastrous.
Drake smirked, "It's just two mercenaries, and they're both dead. Do you think that scares me?"
He set his phone on the table and resumed eating.
Debra leaned back. "Of course, you're not afraid. But this could still bring unwanted trouble to the Lowe family, and you might be forced to sacrifice a few of your key people to protect yourself."
She glanced pointedly at Peter, who stiffened. Her insinuation was clear. If anyone had hired the mercenaries, it was likely him. Now he'd be the one to take the fall.
Peter shuddered in fear.
Debra offered unhurriedly, "I can help you take care of it. You men will be safe."
Drake's eyes narrowed. "And how exactly do you plan to do that?"
