Chapter 389
The two figures ran too fast and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Even Haylan could not capture where they went.
Haylan thought, “Did I have an illusion? Why are they here?”
Haylan hurriedly rubbed his eyes and searched the two people in the crowd,
Unfortunately, Haylan could not find those two people again.
Haylan’s expression instantly darkened.
Reign asked, “What’s wrong?”
Haylan replied in a deep voice, ‘I think I saw an old friend”
Haylan caught a glimpse of his old friend and another person whom Haylan could not believe the existence of
However, Haylan was unsure if what he saw was real since he only glanced at those two people from the corner of his eyes,
Reign asked, “You have a friend in Flensburg? Can you introduce him to me?”
Haylan replied. “I’m not even sure if it’s him. His expression was solemn.
Haylan cried inside. “The problem will be severe if I’m not mistaken!”
Reign’s expression changed slightly when she saw Haylan was so worried.
Reign thought, “It’s my first time seeing Haylan have such a serious and worried expression. What kind of person can make Haylan worry like this?”
Reign was very curious.
“Let’s go back to the hotel first,” suggested Haylan.
Then Haylan strode back to the hotel.
Reign did not know why Haylan was so worried, but it was not appropriate for her to ask more questions. All Reign could do was follow Haylan and return to the hotel.
Haylan stood on the balcony, smoking a cigarette. He looked down at the streets with a solemn expression.
Reign sat in the living room and made coffee. She felt strange when seeing Haylan like this.
Haylan said, “Turn on the TV”
Haylan finished smoking a cigarette and turned on the television to watch the news.
As Haylan expected, all the major media outlets were busy reporting.
Many media outlets reported the Zabel family people had been killed. Some media outlets were still reporting on the missing Princess Carina. Several media outlets reported on the recent news in the entertainment industry. For example, Alia Combs evaded taxes, Isaac Houghton harassed a girl, and Hank Warren was married.
Watching the news reports, Haylan lit another cigarette with his eyes focused on the television.
Reign asked curiously, “What’s wrong? Has something happened to your favorite star?”
“I don’t have time for that,” said Haylan.
At this moment, Haylan was sure he did not have an illusion. He was not mistaken.
Haylan confirmed the two figures he saw were the two people he knew.
Although the two people had disguised themselves, their body shapes were the same as Haylan remembered.
Haylan smoked and gritted his teeth, murmuring. “Damn it. That kid is going to make a big scene.”
Reign asked again. “What’s wrong?”
Haylan paused the television and pointed at Princess Carina on the screen, saying. “I saw Princess Carina just now. A guy kidnaps her to this city.”
Reign was stunned and said, “What?”
Reign thought, “Princess Carina is the daughter of the king in the Arctodus Kingdom. She goes to Margaret Harbor and plans to visit Lightdom City.
“Some time ago, everyone was talking about Princess Carina’s disappearance. That event put the Longhard Kingdom under
immense pressure from the world.
“Lightdom Military Department even sent many special forces to search for Princess Carina, but they found nothing.
“And now, Princess Carina appears in Flensburg City?”
Reign swallowed and asked, “Haylan. Are you sure about it?”
Haylan said with a serious expression, “At first, I didn’t trust my eyes. So, I came back to watch the news. I stood on the balcony and watched everything on the streets, expecting to find their traces.
“After watching the television, Im certain that I wasn’t mistaken. That person I saw is Princess Carina.
“And the person who kidnaps Princess Carina is my old friend.
“So, something big is going to happen!”
As he spoke, Haylan cursed inside, Xander, you bastard. Why are you always causing trouble for me?
“And what’s wrong with Jeremy? Why did he send that troublemaker to the Longhard Kingdom?
The two people I caught a glimpse of just now were Xander and Princess Carina.
“Xander is capable that he can easily kill the assassins of the Hell’s Gate.
“However, Xander is unruly and often causes trouble.
“Now Xander kidnaps Princess Carina and almost causes a war between the Arctodus Kingdom and the Longhard Kingdom. He must be out of his mind!”
Hearing Haylan’s words, Reign was shocked, asking, “Your friend kidnaps Princess Carina?” The way she looked at Haylan was different.
Reign thought. “The one who dares to do such a crazy thing must be a maniac!
“And that kind of person is Haylan’s friend?”
After a pause, Reign asked in confusion, “If your friend wants to kidnap Princess Carina, why doesn’t he leave the Longhard. Kingdom? Why does he come to Flensburg City?”
Haylan said, “To have fun!”
Reign was shocked and cried, “What?”
Haylan explained, “My friend is lively and likes to have fun. Something exciting must happen in Flensburg City in the next few days. That’s why my friend brought Princess Carina here.”
Reign repeated, “Something exciting?”
When Reign heard that, she thought for a moment. Then she said, “I got it. Your friend should be here to attend the Swan. Cruise Party”
*Swan Cruise Party?” said Haylan.
Reign said, “Yes. The big shots of Flensburg City take the lead and hold a grand business gathering, inviting rich people from all over the country to attend. They say they are going to discuss the future business model. The party will be held on three Swan Cruise ships.”
Reign took out an invitation and placed it before Haylan. Then she continued, “My second purpose for coming to Flensburg City is to participate in this party and get to know the business sectors around the country.”
Haylan looked at the invitation.
On the invitation were three huge swan-shaped black-and-white cruise ships.
The design was elegant and splendid.
