"Jairo, Olive, in here!" Tess Petty called out, motioning them into an elegant guest room within the Manor. The crisp white sheets on the bed were undisturbed, and the luggage rack stood empty in a corner. "This is the room I assigned to Darrell."
A heavy silence filled the space as Jairo's eyes scanned every inch of the untouched room. Olive placed a comforting hand on his shoulder. "We'll find them, Jairo. Both Amelia and Darrell."
"Thank you, Olive," Jairo replied, his voice strained with worry.
Meanwhile, Macey parked her car near the edge of the woods, the area Ash had mentioned before. She loaded a round into her sidearm, her resolve firm as she ventured deeper into the shadowy trees, each step deliberate and cautious.
Back at the Manor, Helena, Preston, and Yusuf trekked across the island, calling out Amelia's name as they searched tirelessly for any trace of the missing girl. Their determination fueled by a growing sense of urgency and concern.
"Anything?" Helena asked, looking to Preston and Yusuf for any positive sign.
"Nothing yet," Preston admitted, frustration evident in his tone.
As they continued their search, Alanna and Ashleigh Lewis joined Jairo and Olive inside the Manor. "Have you checked the basement?" Alanna suggested, her brow furrowed as she considered the possibilities.
"Good idea, let's go," Olive agreed, leading the group back downstairs.
In another part of the Manor, Jaylee, Miguel, and Killian explored the remaining rooms, hoping to uncover any clue that would lead them to Amelia. As they entered Kyan's room, they noticed his bag still on the floor, its contents strewn about.
"Kyan never left," Killian observed, suspicion creeping into his voice. "What's he up to?"
"Let's not jump to conclusions," Miguel cautioned, trying to keep the others focused on their primary goal. "Right now, we need to find Amelia."
"Agreed," Jaylee chimed in, her voice wavering slightly with fear. "We can't waste any more time."
As each group continued their search, an unsettling atmosphere settled over the island, its grip tightening around them. But one thing was clear: they would not rest until Amelia was found.
