After defeating Chrome at the Haunted Mansion, head to the Monte Carlo Informants Guild. If you don't have access to the Informants Guild yet, bring Sonya to the Hooded Man infront of the tent near the Informants Guild and exhaust the dialogue. Return to the Guild, talk to the door keeper, warp back to Iliasville, talk to Lazarus, return to the Informants Guild. After entering talk to everyone in the building, one of them knows where the magical thread is. Head south out of Monte Carlo and follow the coast till you reach Rubiana. Enter and exit all the buildings there. Head east from Rubiana, following the mountains until you reach the Seeker's Cave or whatever Dargoth or MGQ Ex translated it to. Go through the 1F and exit the cave to world map in the middle of the mountains. Enter the puppeteers tower, watch the cutscene and then re-enter the Seeker's Cave. Immediately west, are some stairs. Descend down the Seeker's Cave until you reach B3F (I think that's the bottom, maybe B4F) and at the very end there will be three chests, a red, a blue, and a green. The red chest is magically sealed but it should open now. Get the Magical Thread and return to Chrome.

Some of these steps might be skippable but it's been awhile since I've done the quest so I can't remember if you actually have to go to Rubiana and the Puppeteer's Tower. I know if you all follows all these steps, the chest will open though. Chrome's recruitment quest is one of the most asked about things since Paradox was released so there has been a lot of discussion about it.
