Chapter 494 Out of Control
Colby couldn’t stand it when he brought up that topic.
“You smoke too, but I never bring that up. Yet, you’re on my case. After all the hard work I’ve put in, a bit of indulgence is well-deserved!” Colby defended himself unapologetically.
Sean let out a sigh of exasperation upon hearing this.
At this moment, Xavien knocked and entered. He glanced at Sean, signaling that Sean should leave.
Colby understood that they were about to discuss something important. So, he waved Sean away and settled down comfortably, contemplating. Besides, he was indeed tired and needed. a couple of days off after indulging in his games for so long.
When Sean was alone with Xavien in a quiet place, he inquired, “Has there been any sign of
Luna?”
“Yeah, she’s been shopping, watching movies, indulging in gourmet food, and updating her social media. However, she hasn’t contacted anyone else.” Xavien found it peculiar too.
Sean pondered for a moment and said, “Keep an eye on her. Don’t let your guard down.”
Xavien nodded and left.
Sean took out his phone and moved to a secluded spot to make a call.
Once the call was answered, he asked in a low voice, “Any progress on the matter? We’ve had an unexpected development here, and I’m worried I won’t be able to control the situation. Things might go completely awry.”
“What’s happened?” the voice on the other end inquired.
“I can’t be sure yet, but I thought it best to give you all a heads up,” Sean stated.
After the person on the other end responded, Sean hung up.
He knew he couldn’t afford to be impatient. It was already challenging enough to deal with. the police, and many of his men had been compromised. If they could proceed cautiously and sacrifice fewer people, it would be a good thing. Still… Given the current circumstances, he was afraid that bigger problems might arise later.
Sean contemplated whether he should talk to Luna. Yet, he couldn’t help but consider the fact that getting into contact with Luna would only arouse suspicion. Those who knew him well understood that he wouldn’t engage with Luna privately.

May arrived, and Fairy Meadow unveiled a part of its summer collection, considering some cities experienced summer early.
Early in the morning, Abigail received a call from the CEO of Leap Gaming Technology. informing her that the mini-program had made initial progress and that he was sending the beta version over.
“You work fast…” Abigail was somewhat surprised. It had only been half a month; were they all workaholics over at their company?
“We had a foundation to start with. For our team, creating a mini-program is a piece of cake,” the CEO of Leap Gaming Technology said with a confident smile.
