He started down into the basement but he was drawn to look at a large box, labeled, sold, ready for pick up.
There were so few items in the box but the amount on top was listed as 40,000 dollars.

There was no one on the other side.
The voice from the basement was also cut off abruptly and Jefferson knew he had to move.
He started towards the basement stairs and now he heard footsteps coming up the basement stairs.
