Chapter 2060: The Storm Came So Quickly

"No! I need to contact Joyce immediately." Reuben suddenly stood up and took out his phone to make an external call.

Hajime hurriedly stopped him, "Your Highness, what are you doing? All your calls are monitored. Every move you make is known to the Crown Prince. You must not act impulsively!"

"I'm not being impulsive; I need to confirm something." Reuben was anxious.

"Do you mean you might know the woman the Crown Prince brought back?" Hajime asked.

"More than just know her; she has helped me greatly." The more Reuben thought about it, the more uneasy he felt.

If Joyce had been captured, it must be related to him. Clint wouldn't do such a thing for no reason. It was because Reuben had taken the anti-electromagnetic pulse blueprints from Joyce that Clint couldn't obtain them, leading to Joyce's predicament. It was his negligence. Could Clint have directly gone after Joyce? If so, his guilt was immense.

"Who is this person you're talking about? Can you tell me?" Hajime asked. At this point, he needed to know everything.

"Pascaylia, you're surely familiar with the Heath family warlords. She is the daughter of the Heath family, but she doesn't go by the name Heath. Her name is Joyce," Reuben explained.

"What?! The daughter of the Heath family?!" Hajime was shocked. The Crown Prince playing with women and even kidnapping one back was outrageous.

"Not only that, but she is also the wife of Pascaylia's richest man." Reuben felt overwhelmed.

The reason he had lost contact with them and didn't reach out was to avoid dragging them into royal conflicts. Only by disappearing could he keep them uninvolved. Unexpectedly, this fire still burned them in the end, making the situation even more chaotic.

"What kind of entanglement does the Crown Prince have with her?" Hajime looked incredulous.

"I don't know. Maybe because of me, Clint went after her." Reuben was anxious, "I have to find a way to contact her."

"Your Highness, calm down. Even if you confirm it's her after contacting her, what can you do now? She's in the Crown Prince's hands. Can you storm into the Crown Prince's residence and rescue her? It's unrealistic. Moreover, we are already on thin ice; His Majesty could act any day now; we must not act rashly." Hajime advised, "If it truly is the Crown Prince who captured her, it's already been several days. Whatever you want to do might be too late."

"Too late?? What do you mean?" Reuben couldn't accept it. Clint was ruthless and cruel; his methods were unimaginable. He couldn't imagine what Joyce might be suffering.
