Chapter 384: I should raise my voice...

At the international airport of Country Z, Ethan and Davis walked side by side toward the exit.

Ethan, as usual, handled their few pieces of luggage with quiet efficiency, while Davis, still unsettled from the long flight, switched off airplane mode on his phone the instant they stepped out.

His fingers, restless, dialed the one number that had haunted him throughout the journey. But the call didn’t connect.

A frown tightened his jaw. He tried again, only for his phone to buzz with a notification instead.

For a fleeting moment his chest tightened then relaxed when he read the message.

Relief softened his expression, a quiet smile tugging at his lips even though the call had not gone through.

"Long time, Mr. Raven," a middle-aged man with a fair complexion and a sharply prominent nose greeted warmly, his smile bright as he approached.

Pulling the car door open, he stood aside respectfully.

"Long time," Davis returned the greeting with a firm handshake, his gaze steady.

Ethan, less formal, clasped the man into a friendly hug before they slipped into the car and they left the bustling airport behind.

Their car glided smoothly through the city lights toward their hotel.

"Are we joining the summit immediately?" Ethan asked, flipping through Davis’ schedule with practiced focus.

"Not yet. I have to see him first," Davis replied, a subtle glint of warmth flickering in his otherwise composed eyes.

"Are we going now?"

"Get to the hotel first. We’ll discuss after," he said, leaning back against the armrest, closing his eyes.

A single thought weighed heavily on him: he needed to arrive at the hotel quickly and see if he could contact her. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be at peace.

"Any updates about events back in the country?"

"Not until we settle in the hotel," Ethan replied evenly.

"Alright. Keep me informed," Davis instructed, though his voice had grown distant.
