As they had expected, Avery did not pick up.
"Why don't you try calling your boss?" Avery's bodyguard suggested.
Elliot's bodyguard wanted to see the pit, as well, and called Elliot intending to ask for permission. "He's not picking up either! Did they turn their phones off at the same time?"
"Maybe. Let's just go check that pit out! One look, and then we will come back. That way, it won't take too long." Avery's bodyguard was not scared of her, so he was more casual about the affair.
Elliot's bodyguard remained thoughtful for a few moments, before deciding, "Let me send Mr. Foster a message first."
"I’ll send my boss a message, too."
The two left the hotel and drove toward the suburb after sending Avery and Elliot a message.
The sky was gloomy, and it appeared as though it was about to rain. An ominous shade of grey loomed over the site as they approached the pit with face masks on.
"Unrelated individuals are not allowed to come in!" A staff member came over and reminded them.
Avery's bodyguard wanted to take a closer look at the pit and said, "We are Elliot Foster's bodyguards. We were here the day before yesterday."
Elliot’s bodyguard was taken by surprise by how shameless his fellow bodyguard was and gaped at him.
Avery's bodyguard whispered, "It took an hour’s drive for us to get here. It's a shame if we don't get a closer look."
The staff did not hear what he was saying, but recognized the two, as they had been here when Elliot and Avery had come by two days ago.
"Why isn't Mr. Foster and Miss Tate with you?" The staff let them into the site.
