"We're here to help you," she said, his eyes filled with compassion. "You're safe now. Can you walk? We need to get you out of here."Lindsey trembled as she nodded, her trust in Queency evident.

He paused, his gaze drifting to the horizon before returning to meet Lindsey's eyes. "You must be able to recognize some of us, since you saw us back at the port. We were fortunate to find you thanks to Emilia's bravery."Lindsey listened intently as Alejandro revealed his true identity and the nature of his mission. She nodded in understanding, recalling the events at the port and her friend Emilia who she met on Camp rock and how she had played in her rescue.

Paige stepped forward, her kind eyes reflecting a sense of understanding. "Alejandro, you don't have to feel threatened by Zandos presence.

There was another moment of silence, and then Carmichael spoke again. "Mum, I have something I need to tell you." His voice was hesitant but he knew he has me to say it."Go on my child. What is it?"

I was lucky enough to come across it back in Italy."The pendant sparkled in
Lindsey coughed lightly, attempting to disguise the blush creeping up her cheeks. "My grandma never really said anything, mainly because my dad was always hovering around. And when I tried to get answers from her during our rare alone time, she was always tight-lipped. I guess it had something to do with my dad," she revealed, her voice tinged with a hint of frustration." But... She did tell me his name." She continued. "It is Michael."Alejandro nodded, understanding the weight of Lindsey's words. "Michael. That's a start, at least.

Alejandro turned to her. "AMAZONIAN TECH INC.," he muttered, earning gasps from the group. Now that he thought about it, this AMAZONIAN TECH INC might be related to Lindsey."Does that name ring a bell?" he directed the question to Lindsey.Lindsey was still trying to wrap her head around the fact that there was a company named after her father. "No," she shook her head. "Guess Dad must have kept that away from me," she muttered angrily."So... You have never heard of that company name before?" Alejandro asked, shock evident on his face."No. I have been abroad all my life, and when my parents decided it was time for me to come back home, we stayed in Texas where my dad decided to spend time with Mum and me up until the death of my parents," she disclosed."How long did you and your parents stay in Texas?"
