“The open sea? Hah! They actually dared to take her to international waters?”
Baron’s eyes were like shattered ice, the very air around him dropping to freezing point.
The open sea was lawless, a place where anything could happen with no one to answer for it.
But Baron was not like most people.
“If they’ve stepped onto my turf, then I’ll settle the score properly.”
He handed the phone back to Yvonne, his voice cold and sharp. “Call in everyone. Sea, land, air – I want all forces heading for the open waters. No matter the cost, we must find my wife.”
“Yes, sir!” Yvonne hurried off to arrange it..
The captured mercenary went limp the moment he heard the words “open sea.” He knew he and his comrades were already doomed.
Westin glanced at him and asked, “Mr. Baron, what do we do with this one?”
“Take him to sea. Feed him to the fish.”
Without another word, Baron turned and left.
Meanwhile, Jensen was using every connection he had to track down Natalie’s whereabouts. But the only intelligence he received was that she had vanished from inside the police station. Beyond that, there was nothing.
“Hansel, we’ve been paying our informants handsomely, haven’t we? And this is all they can give me? Everyone on the streets already knows this. I need her exact location.”
Hansel shook his head helplessly. “Mr. Jensen, our people really can’t dig any deeper. Both the authorities and the underworld are investigating this case. We don’t have the room to maneuver.”
“Then watch the Stone family. No matter what, Natalie is their daughter. Didn’t they say they regretted losing her as a child? Now that she’s in danger, there’s no way they’ll sit back and do nothing. And that useless son–in–law of theirs – keep eyes on him. I want to know exactly where he goes.”
The thought of Natalie missing and Baron gone from sight made Jensen burn with fury.

He and Natalie were supposed to be together.

And yet that so–called useless man occupied the place of her husband while doing nothing to deserve it. Unforgivable.
Hansel hesitated before finally speaking. “Mr. Jensen, Baron is searching for Ms. Stone too. He’s been working with Yvonne. I looked into her. Yvonne is Ms. Stone’s cousin – Uncle Xenon’s daughter. Years ago, when Uncle Xenon and his wife were killed in a car crash, their child was thought to have died too. But later it was discovered the baby had been switched. The real child ended up in an orphanage, where she later met Baron and came to see him as her brother.”
Jensen’s eyes turned bloodshot. “And what does that have to do with Baron becoming Natalie’s husband?”
Hansel nodded slowly. “It does matter. I found out that back in the orphanage, Yvonne was cared for by a woman she called her sister. When Ms. Stone was injured in the fire years ago, that same woman was there as her caretaker. Mr. Jensen, you should know her.”
“Who?” Jensen frowned.
Hansel enunciated each word carefully. “Phantom.”
Jensen’s mind went blank.
The name stirred no memory
until Hansel reminded him that Phantom had been the
caregiver tending to Natalie when her hand was injured. Only then did he recall.
“Her?”
Yes, Phantom had disappeared without a trace. He hadn’t thought much of it at the time – just an ordinary woman, nothing worth his attention.
But now Hansel had brought her up again, and a cold suspicion took root.
“What are you getting at?”
Hansel handed him a dossier.
“Mr. Jensen, Phantom was no ordinary woman. I dug into her background. She was from Murica. And it seems she worked under the godfather.”
“The Murican godfather?”
Jensen had heard the title before. No one knew the man’s real name, nationality, or even his

But the legend was clear: ruthless, decisive, and in less than half a year, he had brought all of Murica’s underworld to heel, becoming its undisputed ruler.
Why would someone like that send Phantom to get close to Natalie?

find out why she approached Natalie?”
“Phantom is dead. She perished in that fire. Do you remember the body recovered at the scene
the one everyone thought was Ms. Stone’s? I had it reexamined. It was Phantom’s.” Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on.net
Jensen’s gaze narrowed, piercing Hansel. “You’re sure?”
“Positive. Phantom had a boyfriend, the right–hand man of the Murican godfather. A few months ago, he betrayed him and was hunted down. He sought refuge with the Gunn family. From what I gathered through special channels, his betrayal was because of Phantom. So, Mr. Jensen, if Ms. Summers plotted against Ms. Stone, could the real power behind it all be that Murican godfather?”
