Ella Lacey wouldn't let them win. As she tried to fight back, Norman Linton suddenly held her, whispering into her ear very quietly, "Ella, you can't reveal your superpower now."
Her face registered shock. The moment she looked up, she met the pale, dull eyes of Jake Owens, staring right at her.
So, Norman knew she had superpowers!
Was Jake Owens waiting to see her use her superpowers, then?
From the look in Norman's eyes, she picked up a definitive yes.
What was going on?
One wanted to see her use her superpowers; the other wanted her to avoid using them...
At this moment, thirty black-clad bodyguards were brought in by Jake Owens. They stepped into the dungeon and carefully lifted the cage holding Ella Lacey and Norman onto an enclosed truck parked outside.
Before departing, Jake Owens shouted an order at them, "You have to ensure their safe delivery to the open sea. Otherwise, you'll all die!"
