âI canât contact him. He went abroad ten years ago and hasnât been in touch with us since then. However, he occasionally sends letters to Mom. I think I remember his daughterâs name being Yvonne!â
âOkay, I got it. Liam, are you free tonight? How about having dinner at our place?â
âAh, will⦠will that be convenient?â
Liamâs voice sounded a little nervous. He had probably heard about her family issues.
âOf course, itâs convenient. After all, Lincolnâs daughter is also here. Donât you want to meet your
niece?â
âAlright, Iâll call you after work!â
Lauren hung up the landline and texted Yvonneâs name to Nash.
Nash was in the arrival area of Jonford Airport.
Xeno was holding a cardboard sign with the name âYvonne Mareâ written on it in rough, crooked handwriting.
Nash could not help but say, âYour handwritingâs pretty good!â
Xeno looked a little embarrassed. âI never went to schoolâ¦â
Having said that, he held the sign up high.
They were not even sure which flight Yvonne was on.
Every time a large group of passengers came out, both of them would scan the crowd.
âNash?â
Suddenly, a surprised voice sounded from not far away.
Nash looked up.
There was a tall woman walking toward him.
She wore a fiery red leather jacket, a white blouse underneath, and tight jeans that showcased her slender long legs.
A silver necklace hung around her neck, and her refined face was hidden behind her sunglasses.
Seeing the woman, a look of surprise also appeared in Nashâs eyes.
It was Felicity.
What was she doing in Jonford?
âYou came to pick me up, right? Did Angelica tell you?â
Felicity, pulling her suitcase, approached the railing with a joyful smile on her face.
âNo!â
Nash did not even bother to pretend.
Felicity pouted. âDonât lie. Besides me, who else could make a top expert like you come to pick them up personally?â
Xeno shook the sign and asked, âAre you Yvonne?â
Felicity glanced at the name on the sign, and the smile on her face froze.
It seemed Nash was not there for her at all.
Xeno chuckled and said, âIâve seen narcissistic people, but never someone as narcissistic as you!â
Felicity shot a glare at Xeno.
Suddenly, she frowned and asked, âAre you⦠Xeno?â
Xeno was taken aback. âYou know me?â
Felicity sneered. âLet me introduce myself. Iâm the deputy chief of Sagenâs Inspection Office, Felicity Snyder!â
Someone from the Inspection Office?
Xeno felt a jolt, and cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
Being the second-in-command of Dragon Tiger Gate meant he had a criminal record.
Since becoming the second-in-command, he had been closely monitored by the Inspection Office.
âA greenhorn like you dares to claim youâre the deputy chief? Do you know that impersonating an official is illegal?â
Felicity was just too young. Xeno did not believe her title one bit.
Nash leaned in and said, âIâve seen her in Sagen. Sheâs indeed the deputy chief of Sagenâs Inspection Office!â
Hearing this, Xenoâs face turned ashen.
Nash showed a wry smile. He looked at Felicity and asked, âDid you come to Jonford for a vacation?â
âSort of! Actually, itâs mainly to investigate someone! The three Juggernauts of the Green Bamboo Association and the leader of the ninth branch, Howard, are dead. Iâm here to find out which outlaw
did it!â
Felicityâs gaze, hidden behind her sunglasses, was fixed intently on Nashâs face, as if trying to find the answer on it.
Nash responded with a subtle smile, âWho do you think it was?â
Felicity leaned closer to Nash and slowly said, âI think⦠it was you.â
A faint fragrance reached Nashâs nostrils.
Nash grinned and said, âYou can investigate all you want, then!â
Felicity responded disdainfully, âJust you wait and see. I only need half a day to find out!â
âFelicityâ¦â
At that moment, Angelica, who was dressed casually, squeezed through the crowd.
âI have to go now. Iâll come by to see you tomorrow!â
Felicity waved, pulling her suitcase toward Angelica.
