James was full of regret.
When Blake gave him the research data to him in the morning, he knew that the Emperor
would definitely make a move. Despite reminding Tiara to be on her guard, he never expected the
Emperor would act so swiftly.
In just a day, Tiara was abducted.
If James had not asked her to head to Jay’s place for the information, this would not have happened in
the first place. He silently sat on the sofa.
Thea walked over to him. Seeing his grim expression, she sat beside him and grabbed his hand.
“What’s wrong, honey? Are you not feeling well?”
James shook his head. “It’s nothing.”
He had no intention of telling Thea about his plans.
At the same time, in the military region….
After taking over Tiara’s abduction case and receiving all information regarding the incident, the military
immediately began their investigation.
They accessed the security feeds and learned that the black sedan had left the city. As there were no
surveillance cameras outside the city, the military lost track of the black sedan’s location.
However, the military had greater powers than the police force. Sol was the most powerful nation on
Earth. High above the skies, many satellites were watching every corner of Sol intently.
The Blithe King immediately used his special privileges and activated the satellite surveillance. After
retrieving the satellite images, he now knew the direction the black sedan was heading in. He was also
able to find out its destination.
With the information in hand, the Blithe King called James.
James had been waiting for the Blithe King’s call. He was on the edge of his seat, restless.
At that moment, his phone rang
He hurriedly picked up the phone and asked, “What’s the situation?”
The Blithe King said, “The black sedan was heading in the direction of Lily City, but we lost. track of ji at
a mountain near the border of Cansington and North Cansington. The satellite surveillance was unable
to see anything since there’s a military base nearby.”
Upon hearing this, James froze. He asked, “Is there a heavily guarded research laboratory in the
mountain?”
“Yes” The Blithe King continued, “It’s one of the research laboratories that you instructed Tiara to ask
me to investigate.”
“Please in a bilize the army at once and surround the research laboratory. I’m begging you, save Tiara
for me
“I’ll try, but I can’t promise it’ll work,” said the Blithe King. “This is a military base, after all. It’s not under
my jurisdiction. If they present a special permit from the higher-ups, I can’t just barge in.”
“Alright, then. If that comes to pass, I’ll think of something.”
Wearing a surly expression, James hung up the phone.
Meanwhile, Thea had been beside him all this while.
Puzzled by James’ weird remarks, she asked, “What were you talking about, honey? Are you hiding
something from me?”
“No, honey. It’s getting late now. You should go sleep.”
“What about you?”
“I have something on my hands. Now, go rest.” James gently nudged Thea.
Thea knew that James was hiding something from her. However, since James had no plans on telling
her about it, she did not persist.
She went upstairs and headed to her room.
James remained on the sofa, lit a cigarette, and sank deep into thought.
After a long while, he pulled his phone out and called Blake.
The call went through immediately. Blake spoke, “Is anything the matter, James?”
James asked, “Have you left?”
Blake answered, “Not yet. I’m technically an undocumented person, so I can’t just walk past customs in
broad daylight. Security has been tight at the borders recently. I’m still laying low for now”
James ordered, “Bring the Elite Eight to Cansington.”
