Avery was caught red-handed by the Helgen police and a massive stash of drugs and firearms was uncovered on Rose Island.
That once picturesque and vibrant rose field was confirmed by authorities to have been used for growing poppies.
News of Avery's arrest spread like wildfire through Helgen, grabbing national headlines and trending on social media.
The citizens of Helgen flooded the media with comments, all sharing a single sentiment—pure elation, as if it were a national holiday!
The Chambers Group's criminal network had once been an impenetrable web, casting a shadow over Helgen's clear blue skies.
Avery had masqueraded as a benevolent philanthropist, yet the number of people who suffered under his reign was countless.
The public had been silenced by fear, but now, with this malignancy finally excised, justice was served and demanded.
The skies over Helgen cleared, brightening once more.
Avery, who had long switched his nationality to Helgen, should have faced trial there for his crimes.
However, given his unique status, the President personally authorized his extradition back to his homeland, to face justice where his journey began.
It was a bloody struggle against a devil, fraught with danger.
The mighty had fallen, and Avery's empire crumbled—good ultimately triumphed over evil.
Yet, the Ashbourne family was shrouded in a somber gloom, with no sign of victory on their faces.
Despite combing through every inch of Rose Island, Evadne was nowhere to be found.
Meanwhile, Thaddeus lay gravely injured in the ICU, unconscious for a grueling 48 hours.
The Ashbourne men continued their relentless search for Evadne.
The eldest brother, the President and his wife, alongside Elsie Archer, stayed vigilantly by Thaddeus's side, and even Jareth had rushed from afar to be there.
Jareth, fearing Marilla would be distressed by her brother's condition, had kept the news from her.
He ensured Marilla was settled safely back home with Dean before hastening to Helgen.
“Avery got caught, and I had to find out from the news!” Jareth fumed, his voice shaky with frustration, his eyes flushed with anger. “You guys don't consider me a brother! Something this big happens, and you keep me in the dark!”
Everyone was speechless, caught in an awkward silence.
Jareth, impatient, barked, “Could you just get to the point?”
“We suspect Mr. Frederic's brain has suffered severe shock, but we can’t determine why he remains comatose.”
Disappointment washed over everyone, and Jareth slammed a fist against the wall in frustration.
“We’re not specialists in neurology. We recommend finding an expert to treat Mr. Frederic. Mr. President, Madam, our sincerest apologies,” the specialists bowed deeply in regret.
Darcy wrapped a comforting arm around his trembling wife, speaking with a heavy voice, “At least we know where the problem lies. That’s something.”
“Chasel!” Cassius exclaimed, hope rekindling in his eyes. “I’ll get Chasel to Helgen immediately. He’s an expert in this field!”
At that moment, his phone buzzed with a call from Elvis.
Not wanting to alarm everyone, Cassius put the call on speaker:
“Elvis, any news?”
“Big brother, we found her!” Elvis’s voice trembled with emotion and relief, almost breaking into tears. “We found Evadne!”
