Chapter 1027 A face-to-face meeting
Anthony put his son back on the carpet and let him y with the ball himself.
He turned on the speaker. "Ms. Lloyd went to Bostrain, which is far away from Crana, and should have
gotten off the ne by now."
Bostrain?
Anthony frowned. "That country is remote, and it''s not a ce where the people are rich. What did she
do there?"
"This... I don''t know, Mr. Cahan. Except for Ms. Lloyd''s flight, I can''t find her itinerary in Bostrain."

"Oh, I see."
Hanging up the phone, Anthony was still thinking about Lyra''s sudden departure abroad.
Obviously on today''s itinerary, Lyra shoulde to Cahan Group to discuss cooperation project
n. If she can''te due to something, she should call or send a message in advance to let him
know.
But she didn''t.
She went abroad without telling him, and went to a remote and economically backward country like
Bostrain.
And, as far as he knew, the Lloyd''s Corp had no business in Bostrain.
The more he thought about it, the more something went wrong, so Anthony dialed the internal number
between the office and the assistant''s seat outside.
"Zack,e in."
Within a minute, there was a knock on the office door and Zack entered.
"Mr. Cahan, what can I do for you?"
Anthony lowered his head, held the pen to sign, and approved a business trip slip for him, "I need you
to go abroad for me. Go to Bostrain, and find a way to contact Lyra as soon as possible when you get
there."
Although Zack didn''t understand the meaning of what he said, he obediently epted the slip he
handed over.
"When do you need me to leave?"
"Now."
"Huh?" So urgent?
Zack was in a daze.
Anthony continued, "I need to know where she went, what she did, who she met in Bostrain."
Zack was a little frightened. "You want to check Ms. Lloyd? If Mr. White finds out, I''m afraid he won''t be
happy."
"You don''t need to worry about it."
He had always been so forceful that it cannot bemented on. "Book a ticket for this afternoon. Go
back as soon as possible to pack a few pieces of luggage, and set off immediately."
"OK."
...
At four o''clock in the afternoon that day, Zack set off from Suham Airport to Bostrain.
Anthony worked until six o''clock in the afternoon before leaving Cahan Group with baby Alistair in his
arms.
He went to the National Investigation Bureau.
Malcolm just came back from a mission. He was still wearing a dark green military uniform with a gun
on his waist, and his handsome face was full of righteousness.
Anthony stared at his military uniform for several times before stepping forward with Alistair in his arms.
"Mr. White."
Malcolm turned his head and nced at him, "Why did you bring your child here?"
"Cahan Group has signed a new international contract. I may need to go abroad twice. I want to let
Alistair stay in Lyre Spiti. Please let Lyra help me take care of my child for two days."
Malcolm looked at the soft baby in his arms, his handsome eyebrows were slightly frowned, and his
expression wasplicated for a moment.
If Lyra was in Suham and Anthony asked her to help take care of Alistair, she must be eager, so that
she can video chat with Mavis every day and let Mavis see the child more.
But Lyra wasn''t home...
When he didn''t answer, Anthony read the expression on his face. "What''s wrong? Is there something
that is inconvenient to take care of Alistair?"
"No, Rara has gone abroad for business, and I''m afraid she won''t be back in a few days, so I can''t help
you take care of the child." He suggested another way of thinking, "Doesn''t Paloma like her great-
grandson? You can leave him to her to take care of. It''s just a few days. Wouldn''t it be more
convenient?"
Anthony said, "Grandma is old and her legs and feet are not good. Alistair is naughty. I''m afraid he''ll tire
her."
"Then take him with you when you go abroad. Anyway, you usually go to work with him, and the same
goes for business trips."
Malcolm''s tone waszy, but it was the truth.
Anthony avoided the subject and asked, "What business is Lyra going to do? Did she go to Delta
Union?"
Malcolm frowned deeply, "Do I need to tell you my wife''s whereabouts?"
Anthonyughed, "Of course it''s unnecessary. I''m just curious. No worries."
Malcolm gave him a cold look, smoothed the cuffs of his military uniform, turned around and left,
ignoring him.
Anthony didn''t linger, but hugged his son in his arms tightly, and went back to the car.
While closing the car door, he confirmed one thing.
Lyra had secrets.
But whether Malcolm knew it or not, he didn''t know.

After several hours of flight, Zack arrived at Bostrain''s capital airport in a drowsy state.
The economy of this ce was backward, the people were generally poor, and the level of education
was not high.
Coupled with the remote location, there were no natural resources such as ores and diamonds, so the
whole country was still crowded with the earth tile houses which were like the ones in Crana''s
countryside.
There was nomercial value here, so business leaders from other countries will note here to
invest, and the tourism industry here will not work either.
The rtively wealthy people in Bostrain had basically gone abroad for development. The wholend
wasrge and the poption was sparse.
Zack first booked a homestay here, and then throughyers of connections, he got in touch with the
underground trading boss here.
"On the flight from Crana to here this morning, there is a woman named Lyra Lloyd. Her phone is
turned off. I can''t reach her here. I just need you to tell me her location."
As he said, he was putting down a wad of money on the table.
Two hundred thousand.
This was already a huge sum of money for the country of Bostrain.
The dark-skinned man smiled meaningfully, took the money, and replied in unfamiliar and bad
The efficiency of this group of people was really high.
At ten o''clock that night, Zack found a deste and secluded mountain range ording to the address.
There was only one family in a few miles around, so it was not difficult to find.
It was an adobe brick house.
The mountain road was ck, and Zack searched for it with a shlight all the way, and two red
They were Crana-style paper rednterns.
Zack felt it a little strange, and didn''t understand why Lyra came to such a remote ce.
The lights in the room had been turned off, and there was no movement. The people inside were
probably asleep.
Zack knew it was impolite to disturb her at such ate hour, so he chose to set up a simple tent in the
jungle not far from the yard, and barely had a night''s rest.
s, the homestay was rented for nothing.
He sighed deeply, and inexplicably, his job changed from an assistant to a spy.
Never mind, it was still interesting.
The next morning, he was woken up by a crowing rooster.
In that tile-roofed house, the rising smoke could already be seen faintly, and everyone in the house got
up.
Zack quickly put away the tent, put it in his backpack, and walked across the field path in a few steps,
ready to go to the yard to knock on the door,plete the goal arranged by Anthony for this trip, and
contact Lyra.
However, before he reached the gate of the small courtyard.
The wooden door of the tile-roofed house was pushed open, and a beautiful blonde woman walked out
from inside.
Zack wiped his eyes and his breathing seemed to be constricted. He tried again and again to make
sure it was a familiar face.
The woman didn''t notice Zack''s existence, but turned her head, and happened to have a long-distance
eye contact with Zack outside the yard.
He panicked. "... Mrs. Cahan?!"
