Chapter 1356
However, Marcus’s eyes grew colder and more intense.
“Hand over the tracker yourself, or do you need Trenton’s assistance?”
That statement stunned Millie. It finally explained why they had failed to lose their pursuers despite Trenton’s concealment of their tracks.
If they didn’t dispose of the tracker, they’d never escape those people.
It was only in that moment that Shera truly grasped the intensity of Marcus’s glare. His eyes bore into her as though he was on the verge of devouring her.
In a state of panic and confusion, she clutched her hand and asked, “What tracker?”
Seeing Shera’s feigned innocence, Marcus let out a contemptuous snort.

Step by step, Trenton closed in on Shera and said sternly, “Miss Evans, please don’t push me to take action.”
Shera was now perplexed. “Wait, I really don’t have any tracker. You must be mistaken.”
Thinking quickly, she realized that along the way, they hadn’t managed to elude Ryan’s men. One of them must have conspired with Ryan, but it certainly wasn’t her.
“As you said, we’ve never shaken them off. They seem to be aware of our whereabouts. There must be a traitor among us, but it’s not me.”
Shera fixed a sharp look on Millie, her accusing finger pointing at her.
“I know who the culprit is. It’s certainly Millie. She must be the one with the tracker.”
Trenton continued his advance towards Shera, who, in her frustration, took a step back.

Why were they so convinced it was her?
In response to the accusations, Shera raised her hand and vowed, “I swear, if there’s a tracker on me, I’ll meet my end right here!”
Trenton hesitated for a moment, considering what he had learned in his polygraph class. Shera’s commitment did not appear to be deceitful.
Seeing Trenton’s moment of uncertainty, she believed he was starting to trust her. With defiance in her eyes, she turned her gaze to Millie.
“Millie, can you swear your innocence? Tell us you don’t have a tracker!”
Despite being utterly confused, Millie also raised her hand and made a solemn vow.
“If there’s a tracker on me, let me meet a gruesome fate.”
Shera was taken aback for a moment. How could Millie dare to make such a vow?
Unsure of what to expect, Trenton promptly instructed Shera to hand over her phone, which was the most likely source of tracking.
