Chapter 881


    Before rk could respond, Serena sent him another message.


    [Hey, we could also head to Vegas for a couple of rounds, maybe a Chinatown visit, and the 360°


    observation deck in Chicago as well.]


    [Serena, I''m upied this weekend. Let''s n for next time,] rk replied, his fingers tapping out the


    words on his phone.


    His mind wasn''t on leisure activities right now. There was only one thing he was concerned about,


    finding Carol. All the food, drinks, and entertainment held no appeal to him at the moment.


    [Sure, we''ll n it for next time then,] Serena sent back, along with a grinning emoji. [Didn''t you say we


    have plenty of time together in the future? No need to rush.]


    [Okay,] rk responded, not in the mood to add anything else.


    On the other side, Serena felt a chill in her heart. She noticed that rk''s responses were bing


    shorter and shorter.


    At Vi Cascada, Jack thought that his boss was bing stubborn and less receptive to suggestions.


    Well, if he couldn''t handle him, what about Romeo?


    Considering the power dynamics, only Romeo''s influence could stand up to their boss. So, swallowing


    his pride, he called Romeo via WhatsApp, informing him about the boss’ n to visit Lidaria.


    Arabe was driving when her phone buzzed.


    She pressed the answer button on the steering wheel, and Romeo''s voice filled the car.


    "Be, are you going to Lidaria?"


    Arabe thought: Jack again? Fine, she would dock his annual bonuster, no negotiation.


    Meanwhile, the oblivious Jack was feeling quite pleased with himself. Finally, there was someone who


    could handle the boss!


    "I have some business there;'' Arabe exined. "I was nning to call you once I reached


    Reflections Vi."


    She hadn''t expected Jack to reveal her ns. Now Romeo might think she was keeping something


    from him.


    "What have you been up to recently?" Romeo asked, sounding worried.


    It was rk, sitting in the passenger seat, who answered him.


    "Romeo, it''s me."


    "rk." Romeo sounded surprised. "You''re with Be?"


    What were these two up totely?


    "Yeah, my girlfriend disappeared a year ago, and Be has been helping me find her. We are going to


    Lidaria because we have some leads. Don''t worry, Be is safe with me."


    Romeo wanted to ask how rk nned to protect her. If those power groups decided to take action,


    even with theirbined skills, they might not be able to handle it. And rk''s skills were average at


    best?

    "I''ming too." Romeo decided, not feeling assured.


    rk looked at Arabe as if asking for her opinion.


    "I saw on Carl''s Facebook that he''s visiting Dawnstar in the next few days. If I''m not mistaken, you two


    are together, right?" Arabe asked casually.


    "He can handle it on his own,’ Romeo dered. "I don''t have much to do recently."


    "We''ll be back in a couple of days. You can focus on your work."


    "Be." Romeo wanted to talk about the power groups, but with rk present, he couldn''t. They both


    knew this wasn''t a joking matter.


    "Your safety is more important than work; he said finally.
