Adler said, "Just like Sophie mentioned, The Silent Shadows must have hidden Jenna in a place unknown to us. They are wary of us playing tricks, so they intend to exchange Jenna for the gemstone in our possession."
Listening to Adler's analysis, Sophie still felt something was off.
She frowned, and Harold, who noticed Sophie's expression, asked, "Do you have any thoughts?"
"Not exactly thoughts..." Sophie glanced at Adler, who was lying in bed, and said, "We've reviewed the Tredgold family's surveillance footage, but all we saw was Wesley putting a bag in the trunk. We never actually saw Jenna in the bag."
Upon hearing this, everyone was momentarily stunned.
Sophie continued, "I think James wouldn't have told us those things without reason. He let us go, surely knowing there was a trap. Think about it, if The Silent Shadows people had taken Jenna, why didn't they contact us immediately or leave a note, suggesting we exchange the gemstone for Jenna? Instead, they waited for Adler to find out on his own, and then we took the initiative to approach them? Isn't that a bit too troublesome?"
Sophie was well aware of how much The Silent Shadows wanted the gemstone.
Since Jenna had already fallen into the hands of The Silent Shadows, they definitely wouldn't wait.
However, the incident happened so suddenly, and with Adler's accident, they didn't have time to think it through.
Now, taking a moment to analyze, many actions of The Silent Shadows seemed irrational.
"You're right... Jenna isn't with Wesley."
Adler thought back carefully to the moment he saw Wesley today.
With his understanding of his father, if he truly had control of the situation, why wouldn't he let him see Jenna? Wouldn't that have given him better leverage?
But from beginning to end, Wesley was provoking him using Reece.
"But if Jenna isn't with Wesley, where could she be?"
