Chapter 304

Ethan finally arrived at the port right when the cargo ship was going to depart.

Kelvin led a group of officers to the cargo ship. “We received a report that there are prohibited goods

on your ship. The officers need to inspect your goods. You can depart today.”

The businessman, who was standing in front of them, said, “Sir, I’ve reported the list of goods to the

officials according to the rules. I’ve been running this business for over ten years. Why would I

transport illegal goods?”

“We will find out after we inspect them. Get out of the way.”

A group of people swarmed the ship. Ethan was standing in the middle of the crowd, watching them

taking action as if he was a God.

His gaze swept across the managers of the ship. There was no sign of Colin.

Holding his head high, Ethan asked, “Where’s Colin Moriarty?”

“Mr. Moriarty? Why would someone as prestigious as him be with us to transport the goods? Stop

joking, sir.”

Kelvin grabbed that person’s collar aggressively. “Stop wasting our time. I know that he’s on the ship.

Call him out!”

They had checked the surveillance footage. Colin’s car arrived at the port two hours ago.

“Sir, we run business by the law. Why should we lie to you?” the businessman answered.

Not wanting to waste time with the lying businessman, Ethan entered the cabin.

“Sir, we don’t put the goods here. This is where we stay. I advise you not to go in there. It’s a mess,”

the businessman said.

Kelvin kicked the man away. “Out of the way!”

Ethan strode into the cabin and kicked the doors open one by one.

He thought, “Very well, Olivia Fordham. You keep testing my patience.

“You promised not to leave me, but you broke your promise! How dare you run away with another

man!”

All he could think of was how he would punish Olivia after finding her.

The more rooms he checked, the deeper he frowned.

The crew accommodation was a mess. Most of the rooms reeked of smelly socks.

He reached the last room in the cabin. He kicked the door open only to find a fat woman in it.

She screamed in surprise.

“Mr. Miller, it’s easy for them to get caught here. They won’t choose to stay here. It could be one of the

rooms downstairs.” Kelvin tried to calm Ethan down.

Noticing that something was off, Ethan looked at the open doors in the hallway.

Everything seemed to be going smoothly for them.

He put himself in Colin and Olivia’s shoes.

If he was them, would he board this ship, which stood out so much?

Ethan soon comprehended the situation.

Although Colin was young, he was a calculating man and might’ve devised a comprehensive plan.

He must’ve guessed that Ethan would find out their plan to travel by water and search all the ships.

Thus, Colin had specifically arranged a departure for this ship to draw Ethan’s attention.

Perhaps Colin and Olivia were already out in the sea by another ship!

“Darn it!” Ethani huffed.

Kelvin, who had yet to understand the situation, looked at Ethan dubiously. “Mr. Miller, what’s wrong?”

“Olivia’s not here.”

This cargo ship was huge, filled with big cargo. If they were going to search every nook and cranny of it

for Olivia, it would surely take up a lot of time.

After all the time spent on that search, Colin and Olivia might’ve been long gone!

“We’re at the right place. This is the Moriartys’ ship,” said Kelvin.

“He has made a lot of preparations for many possibilities. He’s also prepared for an inspection. This

ship is a bait.”

Kelvin didn’t believe that.

Brent walked up to them with solemnity. “Mr. Miller, there is a lot of cargo on the ship.

“We’ve brought a lot of men along, but it’ll be midnight before we check all of them.”

It was as Ethan had expected. His expression darkened. “No need for that. They’re gone.”

“They’re gone?”

Ethan walked out of the cabin and ordered, “Get a helicopter ready. Tell them to stop all the cargo ships

from leaving the border.

“Just say that a group of drug dealers are shipping drugs illegally.”
