NovelEnglishChapter 2055: Royal Disturbance On the other side.
Khebury.
In the conference room, Luther sat at the long table, supporting his chin with one hand. His handsface was tense; he hadn't been able to sleep for days, feeling extremely anxious. Even though he knew Joyce might have been taken to Rohomes, he had no clue where exactly she was. Up until now, he hadn't received any useful information.
Cecelia sat opposite Luther, with Chinn also present. Aaron, Casey, and other important figures around Luther were all in the conference room. Despite several days of efforts from various sectors, they still had no leads. The other party's movements were perfect, leaving no traces. They could only rely on speculation now.
Cecelia held a pen in her hand, turning it left and right. She was thinking and waiting for a call.
Aaron spoke up, "Mr. Warner, the money you instructedto give to the intelligence department has been delivered, but they haven't reported any news in the past two days. Could it be that they never intended to tell us anything? Or maybe they have slevel of cooperation with the other side." Chinn, although Iris's instructor, held a high rank within the military faction. He shook his head, "No way. Intelligence agencies have their own rules. If that were the case, they wouldn't have taken the money in the first place. Since there's no news, it means they truly don't know." "Who in Rohomes is so powerful? Moving without a trace," Casey frowned. He was usually involved in business and didn't understand these matters at all.

"Yes, Mr. Warner." Casey stood up. He had originally cto help gather information but now realized he couldn't be of any use. The best he could do was ensure that group affairs didn't distract Mr. Warner.
After leaving, Casey sighed deeply. The current situation felt like those years when Joyce had disappeared. Mr. Warner had no heart for business and focused entirely on finding Joyce while Casey managed the group on his behalf. Fortunately, over the years, he had becadept at it. This the could shoulder the responsibility again. He just hoped they could find Mrs. Warner soon and avoid repeating history.
The conference room fell silent again.
Cecelia hadn't spoken much; after settling Anderson and Iris at school, she cover to help find a solution. She had mobilized all available forces within the military faction over these days, both domestically and internationally, leveraging relationships friendly with the Heath family's military faction. If Joyce were in the country, things wouldn't be so complicated. Reaching into another country was not easy; she found herself more confused than ever before.
Anderson was perceptive and couldn't be kept in the dark; she had explained everything to him clearly. Iris hadn't seen her mom for days and although they kept telling her that her mom was away on business, Iris sensed something was wrong. Cecelia hoped Anderson could keep his sister calm and not cause more trouble.
Thinking of Wilson and Cullen still in their infancy made Cecelia's heart ache even more.
At this moment.
Luther's phone rang.
It was Kane calling.
Luther answered and put it on speaker.
Kane's voice cthrough, "Brother-in-law, I've arrived at Eastern Capital. The branch office is set up here in the city center with everything you askedto bring along. But I can't find any information here; it's crowded outside with people coming and going everywhere I look. How am I supposed to find her? I don't even know if she's in Eastern Capital! What should I do next?" Luther remained silent.
Kane continued, "I know I shouldn't complain to you but searching for a needle in a haystack requires sdirection from you! Do you have any news? Who took my sister?" "No news," Luther replied, "We don't know who took her." "So what do we do? What should I do?" Kane sounded desperate.
"Keep looking around discreetly; run the ё Soffice as usual so no one suspects it's just a front base.

For days now he had been receiving such calls without any new leads; honestly speaking it was driving him crazy-he didn't want any more such calls.
Aaron sighed heavily, "Are we just بأخ et waiting for Mrs. Warner to contact us? If she hasn't reached out yet she must be under control... who knows what condition she's in now." Cecelia suddenly made a gesture.
"Shh," she placed her index finger on her lips.
"Darrin is calling." Her voice trembled slightly; she had been waiting for this call all along.
Darrin was initially sent on a secret mission but now that mission might change.
Luther's expression sharpened; Darrin had been stationed in Rohomes on a covert operation making regular contact difficult-only Darrin could provide special intel now.
