Keith, trusting his sister's words without question, didn't ask for any clarifications.
Instead, he swiftly grabbed the radio clipped to his waist and sent out an urgent broadcast.
"Everyone, emergency alert! A storm is approaching. Halt all operations outside the base until further notice."
He paused briefly before continuing, his tone shifting playfully. "I repeat, halt all operations outside. This is an order from my brother-in-law—Ehem, I mean, this is a directive from Mr. Duke Winters."
Keith delivered the line with mock seriousness, intentionally slipping the "brother-in-law" title to annoy Melody if she happened to hear the broadcast.
At the same time, it served as a subtle flex, signaling to the Winters' men that he had a close connection with Duke and a direct channel to communicate with him.
After all, if Keith had said the warning came from his sister, no one would have taken him seriously.
