Episode 23

The figure stepped forward, and Jack's eyes widened in surprise. It was Emily, a former ally who had gone missing months ago.

"Emily?" Jack's voice was laced with surprise and caution. "What are you doing here?"

Rachel's eyes narrowed. "Why didn't you reach out to us sooner?"

Emily's expression turned grim. "I had to keep my cover intact. But now that Alex is gone, I know I can trust you. I want to help you take down the organization."

Emily's eyes locked on Jack's. "I know who's behind the organization. I know who's been pulling the strings."

Rachel's eyes widened. "Who is it?"
