"Coward!"
Kevin scanned Bradley's master bedroom with a device, examining every inch meticulously, leaving no corner unexamined.
Despite his efforts, he couldn't find an entrance to the secret room. In frustration, he kicked the marble wall, regretting his decision to come to Warner Manor alone. If Bradley had hidden Esther there, it would mean he was confident enough to keep her whereabouts a secret.
Taking a deep breath to quell his fear and anxiety, Kevin continued to search with the device. Unfortunately, he came up empty-handed once again.
"Jasper, I can't find it!"
"Bradley is leaving. Call Clark's son right now! I think Clark knows more!" Jasper shouted urgently from the second floor as he watched Bradley and Mandy about to leave.
"Alright!" Kevin had no other option but to call Kyle.
"Mr. Jameson, I'd like to ask if Clark has woken up?" Kevin asked.
Kyle was overjoyed. "My father just woke up. Please hold on for a moment."
Finally, a glimmer of hope emerged as Kevin was about to speak with Clark. He stammered, "C-Clark, it's Kevin. Do you know where Bradley's secret room is?"
Kyle explained the situation to Clark, who had just regained consciousness. "Dad, Bradley had abducted Ms. Esther Quill. They suspect she's at Warner Manor!"
Clark struggled to speak. "Bedroom… Bookshelf… The third."
Kevin heard Esther's voice, and tears of joy welled up. "Esther, it's a long story. Let's prioritize your safety. I'll fill you in on everything."
"Are… Are you here to rescue me?" Esther asked anxiously.
Kevin reached out his hand, and Esther took it, emerging from the casket. "Esther, I'm here to get you out!"
Esther had never expected Kevin to come to her rescue. She asked with concern, "Where's Bradley?"
"Jasper has Bradley occupied at the bar. Come on, let's go..." Kevin reassured her.
