When he closed his eyes, Ben felt someone rummaging through his bag. He opened his eyes and saw a young boy going through his belongings. The boy looked scared when he was caught. Ben glared at him and said sharply, “Young man, behave yourself and get lost!” The boy quickly walked away. Ben checked his bag to ensure the zipper was still closed, then hugged it tightly and returned to sleep.

In Norwood. “Gina, Ben managed to sneak out on a ferry. It was my oversight for not blocking the ports after sealing off airports and stations, allowing him to escape. However, I’ve already tracked the ferry’s destination-it’s heading to Mosnioca. The estimated arrival time is a week from now. Also, the imposter posing as you, Dr. Genevieve, is likely in Mosnioca. Ben is probably seeking refuge or reconnecting with his network. He moved his assets overseas long ago, so he’ll live well in Mosnioca and may continue his fraudulent activities. Furthermore, I’ve confirmed that Ben is the primary seller of Milaper, but he’s also making extra profit by selling them anonymously.” Michael reported to Gina.
Gina chuckled after receiving the information from Michael, realizing Ben was greedier than his son.
“By the way, Gina, you asked me to look into what Elaine is up to, and I found out that she’s heading to Mosnioca tomorrow for Princess Lisa’s suitor selection banquet. The Barnes family’s business growth over the years has been largely due to the support of Mosnioca’s noble families. As a result, the Barnes family has been somewhat dependent on them. Now, they want to break free from this situation. Sending Elaine to attend the royal banquet is likely an attempt to gain the royal family’s support and break free from this dependency. And I also learned that Elaine used cunning to secure her invitation to the banquet…”
After Michael finished speaking, Gina smirked and said, “Got it. Thanks.” After hanging up the phone, Gina prepared to brief Gabriel about her upcoming trip to Mosnioca the next day.
“So suddenly? Why didn’t you tell me earlier?” Gabriel didn’t want to have a long-distance relationship. Additionally, he wanted to spend more time with Gina, no matter where she was.
“It was a last-minute decision; I couldn’t tell you beforehand. I will handle a small matter and get back to you soon. I’ll go and come back by myself, it won’t take long. You’ve been pretty busy lately. You stay and wait for me, you don’t have to come with me. Otherwise, people might start saying that I am disturbing your career ambitions, making you lose focus on work and only think about having a relationship,” Gina said.
Upon hearing Gina’s words, Gabriel sighed reluctantly, acknowledging the truth in what she said. He was resigned but couldn’t help feeling worried. “Then go and come back quickly. Stay safe, and call me anytime if you need anything,” Gab said.
“What if I run into trouble and call you? Will you come running?” Gina joked.
Gabriel responded thoughtfully, “I can’t drop everything and come running, but I will arrange for someone to support you and help you immediately.”
