Rather than arguing with her, Jonah provided an explanation. “It’s your first time in Jadeborough, and you’re unfamiliar with the area. Mr. Lund merely wants to ensure your safety, Ms. Harris.”

Gwendolyn gave up trying to head out. She wasn’t in the mood to stroll around, let alone get to know Erihal better.

Her immediate concern was when Charles would arrive. “When can I expect to meet your master?” she inquired.

“I believe Mr. Lund will be here by the time you finish your lunch,” Jonah told her.

He then glanced at the two foreign bodyguards behind him, who stepped forward to search Nico’s body.

Nico tensed up warily. “What do you want?”

Gwendolyn took one step forward to block Nico before demanding, “What is this about? Does he not trust me? Is he afraid I will do something that could harm Erihal?”

Jonah explained, “Ms. Harris, I hope you and your bodyguard will cooperate with us. Now that you’ve arrived in Erihal, we must check if you are in possession of restricted weapons and firearms.”

has been checked before we boarded the plane. This is unnecessary,” Gwendolyn snapped coldly.

“I’m sorry, but please cooperate with us.

Naturally, they didn’t find anything. After ordering their suitcases to be opened, Jonah discovered a

intricate plane model in Gwendolyn’s suitcase.

As he was about to bend down and pick it up for closer inspection, Gwendolyn snapped, “Be careful! That’s a toy my brother gave me. It’s quite valuable. If you break it, even your employer wouldn’t be able to compensate me, let alone you!”

Jonah halted in his tracks and was forced to retract his hand.

After searching their suitcases and making sure there weren’t any dangerous items, Jonah ordered the bodyguards to retrieve all communication devices.

All electronic devices, including laptops, Bluetooth earphones, recording pens, and any other electronic devices were confiscated. In the end, he even requested to confiscate Gwendolyn and Nico’s phones, as well as Nico’s electronic watch.

Gwendolyn’s patience wore thin, and she glared at him furiously. “Taking away my phone leaves me feeling insecure. Isn’t this going too far?”

Jonah remained unfazed. He gave her a polite bow and said, “I’m sorry Ms. Harris, but we’re merely following orders. You can pose that question to Mr. Lund when he shows up later.”

“Get out. I want to rest now.”
