INTRUDERS AND REVELATION

Chapter 21:

Intruders and Revelations

Two hours had passed since McCarthy and Olivia had departed. As McCarthy sat in his car, he heard a phone ringing. He reached for his own phone, only to find that there was no incoming call. Yet the beeping persisted. Perplexed, he parked the car and began to search for the source of the sound. It was then that he discovered Olivia had left her phone in his car.

The number continued to call incessantly. McCarthy checked the caller ID and saw it was Williamsburg, whose picture also appeared on the screen. Intrigued and somewhat concerned, he decided to drive back to Olivia's house. However, when he attempted to take the main road, he found it blocked. An engineer directed him to use the road under the bridge as an alternative. McCarthy felt reassured, knowing he had his gun with him.
