Chapter 554
Jason was speechless.
The person Darion had arranged for showed up quickly, and to Jason’s surprise, it was Dax.
Jason thought Dax looked familiar, so he asked, “Have we met somewhere before?”
Dax grinned and said, “Yeah, we’ve met. I’ve been with Thalia all this time.”

Then why are you taking orders from Darion?” Jason asked, eyeing him suspiciously. “Does Thalia know about this?”
Dax nodded. “Thalia gave me the go-ahead, so here I am. Come on, let’s cut the chatter. Mr. Campbell, show me what you’ve gol
Jason was speechless.
Ten minutes later.
Jason lay face down on the floor, pale as a sheet, his injured leg shaking nonstop.
Dax called Darion and said, “Nope, this kid’s nowhere near recovered. He needs another ten days, maybe two weeks, just to heal up. And even then, he’ll need more training. He’s way too soft right now. If he goes abroad like this, he’ll get destroyed in seconds.”
Jason was speechless.
‘Come on, am I really that pathetic?’ Jason grumbled to himself, feeling a sting to his pride.
Dax walked over and handed him the phone. “Darion wants to talk to you.”
Jason took the phone and mumbled, “Darion, I just want to get her back as soon as I can.”
“I know,” Darion replied, his voice calm. “But in your current state, not only will you fail to bring her back, you’ll just end up getting yourself in trouble too.”
Jason lay on the floor, his gaze unfocused as he stared up at the ceiling. “I’ve been thinking about her every day. I’m worried she’s being bullied or hurt. I…”
Darion said. “Thinking about it won’t change anything. She’s not coming back any time soon, and your injuries aren’t going to heal quickly. Just focus on getting better and stronger. When I find her, I’ll let you know.”
Jason closed his eyes. Right now, he had no choice but to accept it.
“Fine, he muttered.
Darion had been keeping a close eye on the investigation into Vera, with Ethan Doyle taking charge of the whole thing
Over the past few days, Ethan had managed to uncover a few leads.
Darion was in his study, video chatting with Ethan on his computer.
Sunlight poured in on Darion’s side, while Ethan was surrounded by darkness, stars glittering in the might sky behind him

“Vera is the only daughter in the Holt family, with two older brothers. She’s adored by her family, practically showered with love I’ve done some business with her eldest brother a few times,” Ethan said lazily, slowly sharing what he’d uncovered
Thalia sat quietly nearby, her fingers curling just a bit as she listened.
Darion glanced at Thalia, then asked, “Where is she now? What’s she doing?”
Ethan let out a low chuckle. “The Holt family might keep a low profile, but that doesn’t mean everyone can get involved with
them.
“When I started digging into Vera, they caught on right away. The Holt family came straight at me and warned me off, told me not to poke around their business anymore. You want to know how they gave me that warning?”
He looked straight into the camera, a knowing smile playing on his lips.
Darion’s gaze hardened. “That’s all you’ve got?”
