"Angel, Lisbeth cto see me," he confided.
"What kind of trouble is she in?" Aurelia inquired.
"She's been infected with the superbug Medusa," Skyler revealed.

"Raines trusts you a lot and loves you, right?" Aurelia prodded.

"How did you find out?" "No one can perfectly impersonate another," Aurelia stated. "The current Raines is the head of AK Group, Geoffrey, isn't he?" Lisbeth shook her head.

You'll be safe now. We hope you can help us find Raines." "I want to find Raines and rescue him more than anything," Lisbeth assured them.
"Now that you're pregnant, don't take any risks alone. Inform us if you hear anything, and let us handle it," Aurelia advised.
