"When you say that no one is allowed to know, I'm assuming this includes my parents?" Jonathan asked Cedric as he tried to process the rules he had set.
"Yes, it does." Cedric said with a nod. "I understand that this will be difficult, but we can allow them to call her over the phone and for her to pretend to still be in Spain."
"And what if Lucius comes after the parents, won't he trace where the call is coming from?" Ray asked as he carefully analyzed the situation.
"I'm sure he will, but he won't go near her parents just yet." Cedric said with a slight grin as he realized that the King of the Underworld had missed something he hadn't.
"What do you mean?" Ray asked as he eyed his best friend suspiciously.
He knew all too well what Cedric's smile meant, his friend knew something and he was going to make him work for the information.
"Will you be onboard with my plan?" Cedric asked Ray as he continued to bait his friend.
