By now, Sue Lawrence and her family had returned to their own base.
Thanks to the robots from Silas Hawthorne, her base was now clean and tidy. Jason Sterling's base, however, wasn't faring so well. It was a complete mess, with some caves even flooded, leaving the supplies stored inside in total disarray.
Wyatt Sterling was furious about it, but there was nothing to be done. From the moment they chose to take refuge at Silas Hawthorne's base, their mine shaft had been left unattended.
On Sue's end, however, things were different. For one, Vincent Lawrence had done an excellent job of maintaining it at the start. For another, the robots had taken over later, keeping everything in perfect order.
Jason Sterling, however, was unaware of this. He still assumed Sue's mine shaft was in a similar state to his own, with flooded sections, and that she was, like him, frantically cleaning up stagnant water and debris.
But Sue Lawrence was not the least bit frantic.
