As Josefina spoke, Dorian's attention immediately shifted.
"Hey Sis, let me handle this. You must be exhausted from your trip. I've got it covered."
Josefina handed over the item to Dorian. He flicked on his flashlight and shone it on the black card, revealing two small words: "River Heart."
Dorian frowned in confusion. "It just says 'River Heart.' There's nothing else."
Josefina took a closer look and speculated, "Could it be that Lena goes by the name 'River Heart' at that place?"
"Seems likely," Dorian mused. "This black card must be Lena's ticket in and out."
"We should follow up on this 'River Heart' lead, see where it takes us," Josefina suggested.
"Josie, why don't you take a shower and get some rest? I'll start the investigation," Dorian urged.
"Alright, Dorian," Josefina agreed, nodding.
After giving her a few more instructions, Dorian left the room.
...
Dorian found Garrett and filled him in on the situation.
"Is Josie okay?" Garrett asked, concern etched on his face. "That girl just doesn't want to trouble us. She tries to handle everything herself; she's too independent."
Thinking about the situation, Garrett silently cursed Billy for all the trouble he’d caused his precious daughter, Josie.
"Take over the investigation. Don't let your sister worry about it anymore. She's been up all night; she needs rest. Make sure you have something to report by the time she wakes up."
Dorian agreed. "Dad, that's what I told Josie. But you know her; she's all about action. She won't sit around waiting for answers—she goes out and gets them. There's not much we can do about that."
Even while saying this, they both knew it depended on whether Josefina would listen or not.
"Josie's just too good at solving problems. If she won't listen, then we'll just have to send her some extra cash. Money's needed to get things done. If we can't help with the legwork, we'll help with the bankroll."
Dorian nodded in agreement. "Okay, let's do that."
...
Having just finished her shower, Josefina noticed that Dorian had transferred five million to her account, and her father had done the same.
She picked up her phone, about to inquire, when a message from Dorian popped up: "Josie, keep the money. You'll need it for your investigation—no need to pay it back. Rest up."
