Lucy blinked. Her big, round eyes made her look innocent. "I just feel that the insignia looks familiar. If I told you about it, you would've bid on it." Why would she buy something so useless for ten billion?
Lucy rolled her eyes. Forget about it. She was not interested in it at all. Moreover, she might have seen it by accident somewhere else, which was why she found the insignia familiar. It could just be deja vu.
"Don't be anxious, Matthew."
Matthew frowned. "This isn't something minor. Do you realize that the only way to get involved with Charleston is that recent mission they have in that envelope?"
He was worried for Lucy's safety and decided to arrange a few more bodyguards for her.
Meanwhile, at the Collins' residence, Oliver had just received the envelope from Whitney. There was a gold name card inside with a contact number. His hands were trembling with excitement. This was a rare opportunity. He had actually gotten a contact in Charleston. His company would grow even stronger with their help.
Oliver started to dream about the future. It was worth it to spend ten billion on this.
He quickly called the number on the card. A cold yet elegant voice picked up. "Hello, are you the person who won the bid on the envelope?" "Yes, I am."
Oliver's voice was trembling from the agitation, but he quickly pulled himself together. He put on a gentlemanly front. "May I ask what help you need to deploy this message?"
"About 20 years ago, a princess was born to the royal family, but she was swapped with another baby. Even though the current princess is adorable, we'd still like to find the missing child.
"However, no one in our country has seen the missing princess before, and we'd like your help in searching for her."
Oliver did not expect this to be the
mission. He was silent and looked grim. This was an important mission! He promised earnestly, "Don't worry, I'll try my best to find the fost princess. Do you have any clues for me?" This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
The other party sent over all the information they had. "Our missing princess is just like the rest in the royal family of Charleston. She has a feather birthmark on the back of her waist. It'll appear when she's highly emotional or agitated.
"You may use this clue to find the missing princess. We hope that you're able to keep this a secret as it's considered a scandal in our country. We hope that nothing is revealed about this."
"Of course. Please don't worry about it."
The contact person from Charleston was satisfied with the answer. "It's good to hear that.
"We'll reward you handsomely once she's found. Even if you fail, we'll still provide a big reward. We hope you'll do your best."
Oliver hung up but did not know how to react to the call. It was no wonder the king of Charleston was known to be proud. Even when he was asking for help, it sounded like an order.
However, this was an opportunity for him. Oliver promised himself that he would complete this mission for Charleston.
He had just made the decision when his phone rang again. This time, it was from an unknown number.
Oliver was surprised. His number
was private, and the numbers were
not the normal set of numbers everyone had. If it was not a call from his contacts and it was not someone he had contacted on his own, no one would call this number.
What did this mean? It meant that whoever called him was a powerful person.
He picked up the call with a shudder.
