Chapter 886
Flora and Henrik were caught off guard for a moment; it was clear that the "he" Karter referred to was Karter
himself.
Raul went on, "If he hadn't pushedaway, that bullet would have been mine."
That bullet was meant for him, but Karter stepped in. Raul's emotions were a tangled mess. He never thought
that in such a dire moment, Bryce would be the one standing in front of him. The last thing Bryce said to him was
that if anything happened to him, Flora would be heartbroken.
Flora listened quietly, her serene eyes now reflecting a storm of emotions.
Once Raul was asleep, Flora slipped out of the hospital room, her eyes turning cold and steely.
Raul was safe.
Now, it was tto settle sscores.
Connor was waiting at the door, and as she stepped out, he filled her in on Abbey's disappearance.
"Just vanished into thin air?"
Flora frowned, puzzled. How could someone just disappear like that?

Especially Abbey, who was bedridden and paralyzed. How did she manage to escape so silently, slipping through
even Connor's investigation?
"I've had Moss check the waterways and other hidden routes, but still no leads."
Connor rarely showed frustration, but this situation was a real puzzle. It seemed Abbey had spowerful help.
He had sinklings but wasn't certain. Flora called Crimson for help, then pulled out her laptop to start
tracking.
As the legendary hacker, known simply as F, there wasn't anyone she couldn't find.
She settled into a chair in the hospital corridor, laptop perched on her knees.
The corridor was quiet, the only sound the relentless tapping of her keyboard.
Connor stood nearby, watching silently.
Lines of code flashed rapidly on the screen. At first, Flora was calm, but as tticked by, her expression
darkened.
Every tshe got close to pinpointing the target's location, she was blocked at the last second. She hadn't
expected the opponent to be this cunning.
Somewhere on an island.
In a shadowy basement.
A young man sat against the wall, one leg bent, the computer screen's glow casting sharp contrasts on his
perfectly sculpted features, adding a tinge of eerie patience.
The young man watched the screen, a spark of intrigue in his grey-brown eyes, like a hunter spotting prey.
Interesting.
It was his first tfacing someone who matched his skills.
A chilly smile crept across his face.

But.
Now wasn't the tfor games.
If he kept playing, she'd track him down here.
In the hospital, Flora stayed focused, her eyes glued to the screen, just a step away!
Just one more step and she'd have the location!
But then-
Her screen went dark!
At the stime, red text flashed boldly in the center.
Looking for me, sis? Cto the medical base. "Damn."
Flora, rarely one to curse, snapped the laptop shut, her chest rising with the frustration and agitation churning
within, with no outlet in sight.
This was the first tshe'd felt so stumped.
Who was this person?
Calling her "sis," just to get under her skin?
And what was this medical base about...
