"Where is he?" Isabelle asked Aryan.
"He's in the underground prison," Aryan replied casually, taking a drag of his cigarette. However, Isabelle quickly grabbed the cigarette from Aryan's mouth and extinguished it before discarding it.
"How many times have I told you not to smoke in front of me?!" Isabelle scolded Aryan, who lowered his head and accepted Isabelle's reprimand.
"I'm sorry," Aryan mumbled, not daring to look in Isabelle's direction.
"Nevermind. Take me to Carter. I want to know who ordered him to kill me," Isabelle said.
"Let's go."
Aryan led the way, with Isabelle and Alex following behind him.

Upon arriving at the location where Carter was held, with his hands and feet bound, Aryan ordered his men to take Carter to the torture room.
"Very well, sir," one of his men acknowledged with a bow.
Aryan then walked towards the torture room, with Isabelle and Alex in tow.
