?Chapter 208:
As Connor finished speaking, Elvis released a heavy sigh of relief. Although he had used Paul’s name to issue an implicit warning, no one wanted to offend a high-profile figure like Connor. Fortunately, Connor wasn’t arrogant and showed respect for the Sunrise. Elvis offered a slight bow and a smile. “Thank you, Mr. Daniels, for your consideration.”
After pausing to consider his next words, Elvis continued, “I propose we hold the meeting in the Starlight Hall on the lowest deck. Does that suit you, Mr. Daniels?” At the mention of the Starlight Hall, Marissa and Connor exchanged knowing smirks. The captain of the Sunrise clearly lived up to his esteemed reputation. Since Paul had entrusted Elvis with the helm of such a grand vessel, he must possess remarkable capabilities. Choosing the Starlight Hall on the lowest deck for the negotiation was a strategic decision by Elvis
The Starlight Hall, a windowless and sealed conference room, promised the utmost privacy. Once its door was closed, it would lock everyone in and keep everyone else out. Constructed from top-tier materials and secured with an advanced electronic lock, the door could only be opened with the correct code. By setting the negotiation in this secure location, Elvis ensured he and the Sunrise had everything under their control
In that room, no matter the physical prowess of Connor and Amiri, they would be unable to use it to their advantage. Any breach of protocol would leave them at the mercy of the Sunrise
Connor responded calmly, “I trust your arrangements, Captain.” Elvis then turned to Amiri’s assistant, who was visibly pleased. “Thank you, Mr. Daniels. I will inform Mr. Amiri to proceed to the Starlight Hall.”

“There’s no hurry,” Connor interjected smoothly. “The day has been long, and my wife and I are weary. We shall resume tomorrow.”
The assistant nodded in agreement. “As you wish, Mr. Daniels. Mr. Amiri respects your schedule.”
With a gesture of hospitality, Elvis said, “Then please, Mr. Daniels, allow me to escort you and your wife to your quarters. Your amodations are ready.” Connor acknowledged with a nod and took Marissa’s hand before leaving with Elvis
The Sunrise consisted of sixteen decks and boasted over ten thousand rooms. Guests who splurged different sums enjoyed varying amodations and services. Connor, a top-tier financial magnate, had secured the opulent presidential suite at the pinnacle of the ship. Elvis personally showed them to their suite. Once they werefortably settled in the presidential suite on the top deck, Elvis politely excused himself
Outside the suite, Domenic, Marc, Terry, and a cadre of over a dozen bodyguards kept vignt watch. Inside, after refreshing themselves with showers, Marissa and Connor settled on the living room sofa
In a disy of seamless teamwork, they both reached for their phones and began to infiltrate the Sunrise’s formidable surveince system. The ship boasted an extensivework security team, and its digital defenses were notoriously robust, deterring even the fearsome Eternal Hell from any attempts. However, with Bee and Him coborating today, they navigated the system as if it were unguarded
They methodicallybed through every essible angle of the surveince footage, undetected by the cruise ship’s security. Upon locating Amiri’s room, they delved deeper, scrutinizing the Starlight Hall and ensuring they missed no detail. After a thorough inspection, they logged out of the system
“Amiri is on the tenth deck,” Marissa noted
“Yes, I’ve confirmed his location too,” Connor replied, his tone reflecting a mix of determination and caution. “The Starlight Hall is as secure as the rumors suggestpletely sealed off. To enter is to ce our lives entirely in the hands of the Sunrise. Are you still willing to enter?” Marissa asked, looking intently at Connor
