Jenna was mid-sentence when she paused and added, "Well, cousin technically, but still family!" "..." Sophie cautiously poked her head out and asked, "Uh... is this codenK really that terrifying?" Adler and Jenna nodded vigorously.

Sophie hesitated, "But... why do you look so eager to find out?" Adler: "..." "We don't know who K is, but the Mintons have been working for the K Corporation, a group we've never been able to pin down because they've kept themselves hidden," Colby explained.
Adler asked, "Hidden? How do they hide? All publicly traded companies have business licenses, and their information is out there. You can look it up online." Sophie chimed in, "What Colby means is that the company's identity is kept secret. It doesn't go by K Corporation. It's probably a large company that appears legit but does shady stuff behind the scenes. And the Mintons are their money-makers." Jenna thought for a moment, then asked, "So you're saying this K Corporation could be any company?" Adler said, "It couldn't be one of our families, right? We run our own companies. We'd know if there were any issues." Jenna added, "But besides us in Devonport, who else could it be? The Burke family?" Adler said, "It's unlikely to be the Burke family. James is in charge et and does he have the savvy? He's Won' too young to manage someth this big." FindColby said, "It's not James. Even though he's young, Odie and I heard that K had dealings with the Mintons' late patriarch." "Who else could it be then? There's no one else in Devonport!" Adler puzzled.
"What if... it's not Devonport?" Sophie furrowed her brows. "Could it be the Pollard family from overseas?" At the mention of the overseas Pollard family, everyone exchanged looks.

Jenna sounded skeptical, "But the Pollard family... they're already m dominant. Do they really need Devonport's so-called treasure?" "You never know, what if!" Adler said, half-jokingly.
Sophie pondered for a moment, then suddenly realized something isn't there someone from the Pollard family in Devonport?" Jenna asked, confused, "Huh?" Sophie raised an eyebrow, "No, not one, but two."
Then, Sophie and Colby exchanged glances, smiles spreading across e' their faces. X
