    Tracy’s change happened after she came back from Angelic Etiquette Academy.

    Liam suddenly remembered the day he went to pick Tracy up at the gates–she was standing there, eyes empty and numb, staring at the sky like a walking corpse who’d been living in darkness for far too long…

    Something clicked inside Liam. He jumped to his feet, grabbed Norris’s hand, not even caring that the burning cigarette butt had cut his skin.

    “Norris, you’re the Gills‘ heir. You’ve got way more resources than I do. Help me find out what exactly Tracy went through during those two years at Angelic Etiquette Academy.”

    Norris’s heart jumped. He’d already felt that something wasn’t right, but Liam’s sudden reaction made that uneasy feeling even sharper.

    Maybe just to quiet that feeling, he paused for a moment, then finally nodded.

    Liam had no idea what Norris was thinking. Even though Norris agreed, the restlessness inside Liam didn’t fade.

    He suddenly had a feeling that all his questions might be answered by those two years of Tracy’s life.

    Only the answer might hurt and make him regret everything.

    Tracy had already heard from the staff that Liam had been staking out the cemetery for days, but she didn’t let it bother her.

    She’d been hanging out with Ronald for a few days, rxing while also waiting for Erin to finally show her true colors.

    And sure enough, patience paid off–less than a weekter, Erin made her move.

    Ever since the Walter incident, Tracy had people watching Erin constantly.

    And just to be safe, she had several groups tracking her at once, so no matter how small a

    move, Erin couldn’t slip past them.

    Erin was careful. Even when sending money to Tom, she made sure there was no trace.

    But this time, she was rattled–she secretly set up a private meeting with Tom.

    Worried about scaring her off, Tracy’s people didn’t get too close, so they couldn’t hear what was said.

    Judging by Erin’s reaction, though, she seemed angry and impatient, yet also helpless against Tom–as if he had some dirt on her.

    In the end, whatever they talked about, Erin pulled out a big stack of cash and handed it to Tom. Right after, Tom bought a ticket for a ship overseas.

    Clearly, he was nning to run.

    So Tracy immediately contacted the group she’d assigned to Tom before and told them to grab him.

    With Erin’s personality, there was no way she’d tolerate a leech like Tom for this long, but she had. That meant he had something she feared.

    Whatever it was, she definitely wasn’t letting him olligo. /li/ol

    But after grabbing him, she had to figure out where to hide him.

    All of Tracy’s current workers had been left behind by Franklin, and the Jackmans all knew exactly who they were.

    And since the Jackmans seem to lose all logic whenever Erin is involved, it wasn’t impossible that Erin would get them to help track Tom down.

    Plus, Erin had too many strange tricks. That bodyguard who had stayed by Franklin’s side for almost seven years had still been manipted by her. Tracy felt like nowhere was truly safe to

    hide him.

    When Ronald found out what she was struggling with, he didn’t hesitate. “If you trust me, let me take him. I promise, even if the Jackmans turn Cloudville upside down, they won’t find

    him.”

    Tracy did trust Ronald. She knew if he said it, he had the ability to make it happen.

    But she also knew Ronald had been keeping his identity hidden in Cloudville, as if he were avoiding someone.

    He’d already helped her several times. If this kept up, it might cause him trouble.

    When Ronald realized what she was worried about, heughed, warm and amused. “I’m d you care about me. That proves I’m not just anybody to you.

    “If I said helping wouldn’t cause me trouble, you wouldn’t believe me. But my cover’s blown, so whether it causes trouble or not doesn’t matter anymore.

    “If I’m supposed to just do nothing because I’m afraid of trouble, then you shouldn’t have saved me from those kidnappers in the first ce. I’m the real big trouble here.”

    He didn’t bother lying or sugarcoating. He just told her the truth, in and simple.

    In front of Tracy, he was always honest.

    And that honesty was what mattered most to her.

    She’d seen too much lying and betrayal. His honesty was priceless.

    She didn’t refuse Ronald’s help. After all, he had hidden Tony before, and even Matthew couldn’t find him then. Giving Tom to Ronald now was the safest, smartest choice.
