When Elijah got outside, he shut his eyes for a few seconds and took a deep breath.

The Grandmaster on the mount had never spoken to him about Thaddeus during his years of discipline under him, not even once.

But the master's constant mentions of greed over the years made Elijah understand that even the Grandmaster felt guilty for not warning his first disciple from the start about the consequences of greed.

Now that he had met Thaddeus, he understood the loss the old man had suffered.

    Lisa fell silent, but Margaret continued without giving her a chance to respond.“It is my job as Serena’s mother to worry about her health, not yours. If I say my daughter is healthy, then she is healthy. Your job is to keep her focused on her work and stop filling her head with nonsense.”Lisa looked back towards the Audi, where Serena still sat with her head lowered.“I understand.”“Good. I’m hanging up.”“Wait.”Margaret paused impatiently.Lisa hesitated for a moment before asking the question that had been sitting in her mind.“Does any of this have something to do with Julius? Ms. DiLaurentis still doesn’t seem to remember anything about him after the accident,” Lisa continued. “She doesn’t remember him at all.”“You mind your damn business!” Margaret exploded so loudly that Lisa had to pull the phone slightly away from her ear.“My daughter doesn’t remember that trash, and that is the

    Serena placed both hands against the roof of the Audi and lowered her head, trying to steady herself.“Something is wrong with me, Lisa,” she said quietly. “I thought I was only seeing things, but now I’m hearing them too. Things that aren’t there.”Lisa stepped closer. “What exactly did you see?”Serena slowly raised her head. The swelling around her eyes was more noticeable now, and tears had already begun gathering along them.“I need to see someone.”“Boss…”“A doctor, a psychiatrist... I don’t know.” Serena quickly wiped beneath one eye before the tear could fall. “The doctor at the hospital said I was fine after the accident, but I can feel that I’m not. Something is wrong inside my head.”Lisa released a slow breath before reminding her, “The doctor also told you to rest for the rest of the week. If we had listened properly, I should have come here alone today.”Serena looked towards her.“You ha

    Serena stumbled backwards and fell hard onto the floor, scrambling away from the man before she even understood what she was doing.Her breathing came fast as she pushed herself farther back with both hands. When she finally looked towards the chair again, there was no one there.Only her purse remained on the floor beside the seat she had knocked over during the fall.Around the conference table, chairs scraped against the floor as the TrustMed executives hurried to their feet.Dr. Helena Elis reacted faster than anyone else and quickly made her way around the table, with concern written across her face.“Ms. DiLaurentis, are you alright?”Lisa had already dropped beside Serena and taken hold of her arm. “Boss? What happened?”Serena barely looked at her as she stared towards the empty space beside the chair.“Did you see that?”Lisa followed her gaze. “See what?”Serena looked again, but the

    Together, they crossed the parking area and approached the main entrance.A broad-shouldered security officer stationed beside the glass doors noticed them almost immediately. His professional expression changed slightly as his eyes settled on Serena.“Ms. Serena DiLaurentis?”She slowed. “Yes.”The officer immediately stepped forward and opened the door.“The executives are expecting you upstairs, ma’am. The interview will be held in the main conference room. I’ll take you there.”Serena and Lisa exchanged a look.Lisa discreetly turned her wrist enough to check the time.Her brows rose because they were almost an hour early.She looked at Serena again, and this time Serena clearly understood what had surprised her.The executives were already waiting?Neither woman said anything as they followed the security officer into the lobby.The interior of TrustMed’s headquarters did little to make Serena feel more relaxed. There was none of the disorder she would have expected from a newly

    Meanwhile, in Brooklyn Heights, far beyond Galecrest of East Sorevia...An Audi S8 rolled into the parking area of a towering corporate building along one of the busiest commercial streets in the South District before coming to a stop.Serena DiLaurentis stepped out from the driver's seat with Secretary Lisa following from the opposite side, and both women instinctively raised their heads towards the structure before them.TrustMed Pharmaceuticals.The newly established company had chosen its headquarters well. The high-rise stood prominently among the surrounding corporate buildings, with a modern glass exterior and an architectural design. For a company that had only formally announced its presence in Brooklyn Heights days earlier, everything about the headquarters suggested that TrustMed had been preparing for this moment long before the public ever heard its name.Serena stared at the building for several seconds before tightening her grip around the purse at her side.“Lisa, thi

    Before Elijah could process the answer, Mother swung her arm and sent him flying through the mountain opening with almost insulting ease.His body struck the steep passage beyond it and immediately slid down the rocky slope. He twisted several times along the way, using one arm to protect himself while refusing to release the wooden staff from the other.By the time he finally reached the bottom, pain had spread through half his body.“Mister Elijah!” Iris hurried towards him and caught his arm before he could collapse completely.Elijah leaned against both her and the staff as she helped him onto his good leg. He raised his head to examine where Mother had thrown him through.The others had already gathered inside what appeared to be a natural cavern. Before them, the passage climbed steeply towards the opening above, with a rough stairway carved directly into the rock and disappearing all the way back towards the basin above.<
