Soon, reinforcements arrived at the villa.
Debra watched in awe as the crowd surged forward, their voices echoing through the air.
“Mr. Houston!!
Debra couldn't remember the last tshe had seen such a spectacle. Maybe in high school, on the sports field.
“You have five minutes to find her,” Marion commanded.
The men quickly dispersed throughout the villa Sin black suits, adomed with the Houston family’s insignias,

Instruments, tapping away on laptops. A detailed floor plan of the estate then appeared on
their screens.

“Welcto the age of technology,” Marion replied with a smirk.
“But isn’t this for outdoor surveying?” Debra questioned.

Lara glanced at Debra and then Marion’s men. She nodded solemnly. “It’s in my room. Let’s go get it.”
Before Debra could agree, Marion pulled her into his arms. “No need. Bring it down here.”
She tried to protest, but he refused to let go.
Aware of his distrust, Lara said, “Okay, I'll go get it.”

Lara trembled in fear, which alarmed Debra.
Just then, applause echoed from outside.
“Impressive!” Drake's voice rang out, his face dark with anger. “Debra, you've playedagain.”

restrained Lara. Her face was now as white as a sheet.
Debra asked sharply, “You planned this together, didn’t you?”
Drake shrugged. “I'm just returning the favor.
