Until it was confirmed that Maya Spencer was not in the restroom, Liam Spencer's every cell began to tense up. He immediately called Elijah Reed, instructing him to prepare the team and be ready for orders at any time.
In Ethan Turner's apartment, Elijah Reed was originally keeping Ella Turner company. Upon receiving Liam's command, he promptly stood up from the couch and entered standby mode.
Ella Turner watched Elijah Reed suddenly switch to work mode, puzzled, she asked: "Elijah, what's happening? You seem quite tense."
"It's nothing, you should rest. I'll come see you tomorrow."
Elijah Reed said and then left, even though he had already guessed it involved Maya Spencer, he did not disclose anything to Ella Turner, fearing she'd fret alone in the apartment without anything to do.
Back in the banquet hall, after returning to the private room from the restroom, Lucas Shaw had already gone to view surveillance footage. Hudson Moore and Asher Norton were waiting for him.
