Suddenly, a message appeared on Hannah’s phone screen.
The sender was unknown, and the message was simple.
The message read: “The Garza family and certain shareholders of the Enchantment Casino are banding together against you.
While some dissent, if the Garzas persist, others may align against you.
”
Hannah’s heart sank at the dire warning.
Hannah swiftly replied to the unknown sender.
“When can we meet? I need to assess your condition.
”
Within moments, a reply arrived, containing only a time and location.
“See you on the ind in Palmetan, where the auction is going to be held next Friday,” it read.

What were the odds?
Hannah was stunned.
How could Merlin be involved in the ind’s auction?
Did he know about the ind’s history? Was this a deliberate invitation?
Hannah’s mind raced with possibilities, her expression growing increasingly grave.
“What’s troubling you?”
After getting into the car, Bryson noticed that Hannah seemed lost in thought.
Observing the perplexed expression on her face, he started the car and inquired, “What’s on your mind? Are you worried about something?”
After contemting for a moment, Hannah decided there was no reason to keep it from Bryson.
She fastened her seatbelt and inquired, “Have you heard of the ind being auctioned in Palmetan?”
“Yes,” Bryson replied.
As the car pulled out onto the road, Bryson gripped the steering wheel and stated casually, “But I’m not interested in it.
”
“Are you interested in the ind in Palmetan?”
Hannah’s question alerted Bryson to her curiosity.
“Yes, I’m a bit interested,” Hannah replied.
Bryson cautioned her, “You’d better stay away from that ind.
”
Hannah looked at him sharply and asked, “What do you know?”
Bryson gave a meaningful smile.
“Not much, but enough.
Your friend was injured because he crossed the people who control the ind.
