Chapter 507
He sat up straight abruptly. The grasp he had on his phone quivered with an expression of disbelief on his face.
It was the first time the two women had seen such an expression on him. They leaned in for a closer look at his phone.
They merely saw the beautiful face of a girl on the screen. Her beauty gave a strong impression, carving her every detail into their memory.
The two women exclaimed, “This girl is so beautiful! Do you know her, Aaron?”
Aaron didn’t reply to them, but the corners of his mouth curled up into a smile.
He was too busy recently that he forgot about the kitten he met in Chanaea.
Unexpectedly, his kitten was proficient in diffusing bombs and piano.
Perfect! As expected of my kitten indeed!
He rose from his luxurious throne-like chair and made a call as he paced, ignoring the two women.
“That girl in Chanaea I’ve asked you to find out. Why haven’t I received anything on her yet?”
The subordinate on the receiving end answered respectfully, “Mr. Aaron, I have sent you a copy of the
findings to your mailbox. I’ll send you another copy.”
The call ended, and Aaron soon received a new mail.
The email had labeled the girl’s previous resume and her latest whereabouts.
“Jadeborough University.” Another smile curled on Aaron’s lips.
To his surprise, she had a rough past. She was kidnapped and sold to a rural town when she was younger, but she made her way back to Jadeborough. She is the epitome of a damsel in distress waiting for my rescue.
Aaron left his castle-like house and got in his car. However, two bodyguards stopped him before he could drive off.
“Apologies, Mr. Aaron. We were ordered not to let you leave.”
Aaron frowned. “Why?”
The bodyguards exchanged glances. “The Duke was not satisfied with the way you implemented your last mission. So, you’re ordered to stay at home till the collaboration with the Duke ends, for the Duke fears you might mess it up.”
