Chapter 38

Alex POV:

The Rolls-Royce drove into the underground cave, its headlights casting an eerie glow on the cold stone walls. I stepped out, my eyes adjusting to the dim light, and entered the building. The air was stale, and the silence was oppressive.

I walked into the room where Lewis was held, the sound of my footsteps echoing off the walls. "You're leaving today," I said, my voice detached. "Take this phone and call your men to pick you up. I'm done with you."

Lewis looked up, a mix of fear and gratitude in his eyes. "I won't try anything stupid, Alex. Rest assured."

I handed him the phone, my movements economical. "Tell them to wait at Subrin highway. You'll be brought there."

He nodded, his hands shaking as he dialed. I called Rhino, my voice crisp. "Take him to Subrin highway."

They blindfolded Lewis and led him away, the sound of the car fading into the distance. I left the underground cave, my thoughts already turning to the next task.
