However, Jack disappears, and Tess discovers that several of her former clients have also vanished. Determined to uncover the truth, Tess investigates and finds herself in danger. With Jack's help, they try to escape the society and its enforcers. They are offered a deal to retrieve a valuable file in exchange for new identities and a fresh start. Tess and Jack agree, but their mission is not without challenges. They face security guards and must use their skills to evade capture. Ultimately, they hand over the file and hope to receive their promised rewards.

With the help of their contact, c. Bb, they try to evade their pursuers and seek refuge in a safe house.

With the acquired file, they plan to take down the secret organization. They find temporary peace in a new home, but little do they know that their past is about to catch up with them, putting everything they have built at risk. Tess, Jack, and c. Bb have been living off the grid, hiding from a dangerous organization they took down. They receive a message from the man who offered them the job, wanting to meet and apologize. They meet him on a secluded beach and he gives them a flash drive with evidence. They discover connections to powerful individuals and decide to gather more evidence before going public.

They know they are in danger but are determined to expose the truth. Tess finds something unexpected in the evidence, leading them closer to the truth. In this thrilling story, Tess, a companion for hire, stumbles upon a mysterious figure known as "The Benefactor" who is the driving force behind a secret society. With the help of her team, Tess uncovers that The Benefactor is not who they seem to be and is actually the mastermind behind the society's illegal activities. As they dig deeper, they discover shocking truths and are hunted by The Benefactor's men. With the help of Jack, Tess's love interest, they go on the run, gathering evidence and evading capture. Eventually, they join forces with the police to bring down The Benefactor and his associates.

They manage to fight back, but their encounter with the Benefactor's men leaves them shaken.

THE average man has seldom understood the Mystic. He conceives the Mystic Life, with its ceaseless spiritual activity, and its restlessness which knows no stay till it reaches its goal, as a life of tranquillity, if not of indolence and ease. He has no conception of what it really is, and for that, perhaps, he should not be blamed. But not content with misinterpreting the mystic’s life, he presently becomes more daring; he asserts that mysticism is essentially ‘unpractical,’ and that one whose aim is to reach the state of Union with God must necessarily be as a fool in his relations with the world. Here the average man is grossly, inexcusably mistaken. His error has again and again been exposed, confuted, disproved by example after example to the contrary. Yet, for all that, it seems to thrive in the average mind. Now, if the story of one man’s career could suffice to destroy the mistaken idea that the mystic is an unpractical dreamer, that man would surely be the Majorcan Ramón Lull, the ‘Apostle of Africa.’ Lull lived far back in the thirteenth century, not long after the days of St. Francis of Assisi, whose disciple he was. He gives us, as it were, a prevision of the splendours of that Golden Age of Mysticism which dawned for Spain three hundred years after his birth. His mystic writings—and especially his BOOK OF THE LOVER AND THE BELOVED—are full of the purest and noblest spirituality, compounded with the quintessence of love. ‘If ye will have fire,’ he cries, ‘O ye that love, come light your lanterns at my heart.’ His famous phrase, ‘He who loves not lives not,’ sums up his inspiration. Yet Lull was no cloistered visionary. His life is full of romance and adventure: so crowded with incident is it that many pages will not suffice even to summarise its principal happenings. His capacities showed the rare combination of scholar and man of affairs: he was both these, and he was also the man of God. To the service of his Master, for Whom alone he lived, and for Whom he died, Lull was able to bring the full and complete tribute of an efficient and active body, a superb mind, and an ardent, unconquerable spirit.
