After a silent drive, full of a mental list of things I need to do now that I have a newfound suspect, thanks to William, I exit the car, walking up to the house and knocking, the front door being locked.

The door swings open a few seconds later, Dean appearing, shock appearing on his face.

"Oh my god, hey," he says, pulling me inside. "HOPE!"

"What?" she asks, walking in, her eyes widening, running over and hugging me. "Thank God. STELLA! TORI!" she pulls out of the hug, looking at me. "Are you okay?"

The two also come rushing in, all three of them starting to try and talk to me at once.

"Are you okay!?" Tori asks.

"Where the hell have you been?" Stella asks, hugging me now.

"I have no idea. A bunker somewhere," I shrug.

"Are you sure?" Tori asks, looking at her.

I give her a look. "Yes. I'm sure. Someone was trying to trade something for me. William" I pause, looking on Stella. "Got me out."

She sighs. "Look, I know you're probably upset that we called him, but we didn't know what else to do," she explains. "We were so worried and had no idea where you could be or who took you. We even confronted Charles and had him show us the bunker we used as kids. You weren't there."

I nod. "Yeah, well, he got me out, so whatever. He also gave me another lead."

"So we're moving on from Charles and his son?" Stella asks, relieved.

"No, I still think they're up to something. But, I have someone else I need to look into now."

"Are you going to tell us?" Hope asks.

I sigh, walking away and into the kitchen, grabbing a glass of water and chugging it down before nodding. "Jason Crew."

"Like Daniel Crew's son?" Stella asks, her brows furrowing. "What would he have against you?"

"I worked with him in New Jersey."

"When did you work in New Jersey?" Stella asks, confused.

"Remember when Joe and I broke up that time and I lived in New Jersey with my parents?"

Stella raises her eyebrows. "You worked in Jersey?"

I nod. "I worked in Jersey. Anyway, he was the lead for the team I was on. But, until me, his numbers sucked, and he got nothing done. After I left, it went back to that, and William shut him down. Apparently his family disowned him afterward and no one's heard from him in a really long time."

"Which would give him the perfect opportunity to do everything without being caught," Stella nods. "It makes sense."

"He probably blames you for all of it. When really, you just left," Victoria says.

I nod. "Well, I'll find out. I have to go call Londyn. Stella can I use your phone?"

She nods, handing it to me.

"Thanks," I sigh, making my way up the stairs, shutting the door to my bedroom and dialing the number.

*No One's POV*

Together again, the Jonas clan sits around Joe's living room, the girls all playing in the playroom while Joe, his brothers, their wives, and Denise and Kevin Sr. chat amongst themselves, Londyn and Jessica tuning in and hanging out nonchalantly.

"Any updates on Addison?" Kevin asks wearily, everyone looking over to Londyn.

Londyn sighs, shaking her head as her phone begins to ring on her lap. Furrowing her brows, she picks up the phone quickly answering it.
