Following that, Sebastian put down his phone and summoned Luke not long after.
“Inform Karl that Sabrina went to Jetroina and ask him to bring her back!”
“Yes, Mr. Hayes!” Luke replied.
After a few minutes, when Sebastian was about to head out, the manager from the development
department appeared at his office.
“Mr. Hayes, regarding the mine for the rare metals you asked me to investigate, I’ve found out that we
have a middle man right here in Avenport.”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes, Sir. And sources say he has quite a few mines in his hands. Three or four at least. Would you like
to meet him?”
The manager was very enthusiastic because he assumed that the company was planning to tackle
some new projects.
But in actuality, Sebastian was just using the company’s name to release the information so that he
could bait the people involved in that business as soon as possible.
Sebastian agreed on a time for the meeting.
At noon, Sasha called.
“Sebby, can you tell Mark to let us out? The kids want to go see their grandpa, but they won’t let us.”
She sounded tired and very much defeated.

Sebastian’s eyebrow twitched as his gaze fell onto a soldier in the office who was there on standby.
“What can I do for you?” Mark asked, standing up straight upon noticing Sebastian’s gaze.
Sebastian did not answer.
It took quite a long while before he eventually asked, “How long are you people going to be here?”
“I’m not sure.” Mark shook his head. “But we were ordered to ensure the safety of you and your family
until everything is settled. We can’t allow something like last time to happen again.”
He was referring to the incident on Norden Isle, of course.
Sebastian’s forehead throbbed.
However, he did not say much about it and merely ordered Mark to send a few men to escort Sasha
and the kids to see her father.
“Yes, Sir.” Mark’s reply was clean and precise.
Sasha, who had been stuck in Frontier Bay for almost a week, could finally bring the children to visit the
Wand family.
“All right, sweeties. You guys are in charge of covering for me when I go meet that person, okay?”
“Yes, Mommy,” the kids agreed after they got out of the car.
With that, Sasha brought them into the Wand residence.
“Grandpa!”
The kids charged into the house as they shouted, alerting Rufus of their visit as he immediately came
out of the living room to greet them.
“Oh, my little grandchildren! You’re all here!”
“Yes, Grandpa. Did you miss us?” Vivian said.
Among the three, her mouth was the sweetest. Even though she was already seven years old, her
ability to play it cute did not deteriorate. Coupled with that cutesy voice of hers, Rufus could not help
but pick her up immediately.
Meanwhile, Sasha took the grocery that she brought into the kitchen. “Dad, where’s Lennie?”
“He went to the company. I heard from your aunt that business has been booming recently, so he’s
been busy,” Rufus explained while playing with the kids.
Sasha’s eyes lit up.
“If Aunt Sharon’s helping at the company, doesn’t that mean Uncle Jackson’s home alone? Why don’t
we invite him over for a meal together?”
“Sure,” Rufus agreed unsurprisingly.
Sasha grabbed the car key and came out of the kitchen. However, she did not go to the car straight
away. Instead, she walked to the door, where she saw the Oceanic Estate security guards at the gate.
“Captain Jenson, do you mind fetching my uncle over for me? It’ll be too much of a hassle if you guys
have to follow me wherever I go.”
“Sure. We’re under orders to protect your family after all. We should do that much.”

The guard accepted Sasha’s request immediately and left the Wand residence with the car. The kids all
came out as well and started playing with the remaining guards.
After that, Sasha went back in and did some work before coming out again. Seeing that the guards
were now lax, she when back in and told Rufus that they were out of salt and that she would buy some
from the convenience store nearby.
“Okay.”
Rufus was practically oblivious to what happened, so there was not a single hint of doubt in him.
With that, Sasha was finally able to get away.
After several minutes, at the convenience store not far from the residence, Sasha was finally able to
meet the person who was looking for her.
“Ms. Wand…”
The person stopped talking as she could barely hold the tears in her bloodshot eyes when she saw
Sasha. Sorrow and anxiety were written all over her beautiful face.
Lo and behold, it was Jamie, also known as Akiko Sato, the person who had worked for Sasha in the
past.
When Sasha saw Jamie and how she looked, she suddenly had a bad feeling about what was to come.
“What happened? Where is Solomon? Haven’t you been following him? Why did you come here alone
all of a sudden?”
