Drake had just managed to get his power back. He couldn''t have that kind of money to buy a precious stone like that.
Faced with her doubt, Drake snorted, "Who says it has to be bought?"
"Then how did you..." Debra trailed off, quickly realizing where this was headed.
She smacked his arm, scowling, "You''re involved in illegal dealings again?" "That''s the nature of my business. Focus on your own man," Drake retorted. Marion shot him a cold re, warning him against messing with Debra.
Drake took a deep breath. "Don''t worry. I didn''t hurt anyone. They gave it to me willingly, and I''m paying them in installments. They won''t lose out."
Debra finally rxed and asked, "So where did you hide the stone?"
"At a safe ce, of course," Drake replied. "It cost me a fortune. Naturally, they''d not find it easily."
"So, the Illuminati members have been collecting treasures like that. Such stones could lure out their leader, right?"
"It was a guess. But after this, I''m pretty sure I''m right."
"Didn''t expect you to be so smart."
"I''ve been hiding my talents."
"Good for you, But this ce isn''t safe. You can''t stay here for long. I talked to Jordan. Someone wille and take you back to Seamar City today. You''re better off staying at the Potter Mansion to recover. Their medical facilities are top-notch, and we''ve arranged for William to take care of you. You''re weak, and it will take two or three months for you to recover."
"I''m not weak."
Debra ignored him and waved at the door. "Come in and help Mr. Lowe with his discharge paperwork. He''s weak, so when you move him, be careful. If he gets hurt, he''s going to yett at you."
A group of people entered the room

Drake couldn''t move, let alone resist them.
Debra turned to Marion. "Let''s go and make sure his stone is safely stored."
"I didn''t even tell you where I hid it," Drake protested.
"You don''t need to. I already figured it out."
