not one to fully trust others with my safety.”
Claire nodded, her eyes sparkling as she tilted her head to gaze into Sean’s.
“When Nolan stood up. I discreetly snapped a photo of him with my phone. As soon as he left, I texted
Logan, sending our location and instructing him to contact me at 10 PM. If he couldn’t reach me, he
was to follow the coordinates to find us, potentially on the island, and to apprehend Nolan. That’s

price!”
Meanwhile, the event organizers were panicking like ants in a hot pan, sweating profusely. “What! The yacht hasn’t returned yet? Contact Nolan Hayes!”

“Missing? What have you done? Wasn’t one of your people on that yacht?”
“I… I… I…” The manager stammered, swallowing hard under the fiery wrath of Joseph Felix. His body shook uncontrollably, even his shoulders quivering in fear.
“The yacht’s captain… we… we can’t reach him either…”
Joseph looked down, a cool breath escaping his lips as his eyes suddenly blazed with a crimson fury. Gripping the manager’s collar, he lunged forward, slamming the manager against the desk behind him. The sharp edge of the desk nearly broke his back.

As the jewelry exhibition attendees gradually left the hotel after the celebratory banquet, the previously bustling venue started emptying. Joseph walked indifferently past the departing guests, heading straight for the elevator to ascend to his floor.
