There was silence over the phone.
There was no response.
Grant's reaction was extremely quiet and indifferent.
Grant asked Logan to investigate just to verify his own speculation.
He was not clueless.
Now, Grant confirmed his speculation.
Grant thought, 'This damned Eric! Why isn’t he the one to bear all this?'
"President, what’s your next order?"
Logan asked.
From the moment Grant learned that Nicole had returned safely, his spirit came back.
It was as if everything had meaning again.
Grant had courage and purpose even if he were to go against Eric.
Grant's tone was indifferent. "Where's Angie now?"
He was more concerned about this issue.
In the beginning, Caleb proposed a hostage exchange. Eric went by himself, which could be understood as impatience.
However, the negotiations failed, so Eric was actually not that anxious.
What about the other hostage?
Where didn't she appear from the beginning?
Logan paused. "She's still under investigation."
Grant wrinkled his brow. Logan added, "She has never left Mediania. Before Eric left, he informed someone to bring her over, but the negotiations failed. Eric was worried that Caleb would snatch her away in his territory, so he did not allow them to take Angie back t o Southeast Asia, saying that he wanted to keep her as a trump card..."
Logan spoke with extreme restraint of his own emotions.
He had been Nicole’s assistant for so long, so he knew that this princess was not as difficult to serve as it looks like on the surface. In fact, Nicole was very nice and abided by clear rules. She was a simple person.
However, how did Eric Ferguson, who declared to the public about his deep love for Nicole, treat her in the end?
