Chapter 104 I Think I'm Ready To Talk

• For the next several days, the apartment buzzed with a flurry of activities as each member of Alex’s team focused on their respective tasks. Asher and Marcus were deep into enhancing the security systems, meticulously combing through every possible vulnerability and fortifying defenses. They set up new firewalls, conducted thorough audits, and implemented advanced encryption protocols. Every hour seemed to bring a new challenge, but their determination never wavered.
• In the midst of this, Alex's focus remained divided. He was dedicated to caring for Ira and trying to uncover the whereabouts of Leo Allen. Leo, believed to be involved in Ira’s kidnapping, was a ghost, slipping through their grasp every time they got close. Alex spent long hours pouring over reports, analyzing leads, and coordinating with various contacts to track him down. The frustration of the chase weighed heavily on him, but his resolve to find Leo never faltered.
• Liam had taken on the task of extracting information from Whitaker, a possible known associate of Leo and the man who painted Ira’s portraits. However, Whitaker proved to be an incredibly tough nut to crack. Despite the intense pressure and even torture, Whitaker remained silent, his loyalty or fear keeping him from divulging any useful information. Liam’s frustration grew with each passing day, as the man refused to budge, leaving them no closer to Leo.
