“Sure, I'll send it to your cellphone, but boss,’ Jones couldn't help but warn, "That town is pretty rough,
quite the mix of folks. There's a flea market there where you can find all sorts of rare stuff, so it attracts
all kinds.
Robberies aren't uncommon. You could get robbed in the morning and again in the evening. It's not
exactly a rare occurrence."
Arabella raised her perfectly sculpted eyebrow at this. A place that chaotic, really?
“Boss, if you're going to drive, don't leave your purse in the passenger seat. It's an easy target for a
smash and grab. If you're on foot, dress as plain as you can. Avoid anything with a designer logo. It's
just asking for trouble."
Arabella seemed intrigued by this, a wry smile playing on her lips. "Is it really that bad?"
"No joke, boss. And don't carry anything in your hands, especially not your phone. You'd be an easy
target."
Arabella just chuckled lightly, “That bad, huh?"
"Boss, remember a few years back when I told you about a situation I had. You sent me to Dawnstar's
border for a job, and as I was driving through that town, a group of ragtag folks stopped my car. They
surrounded the vehicle, asking for money. I didn't have any change on me, and they threatened to
damage the car, even break the mirrors. It really got under my skin! If it wasn't for the fact that the job
required me to keep a low profile, I would've given them a piece of my mind!"
"And then?’ Arabella asked with a smirk.
“Well, I showed them my piece and they backed off. But not before they broke my side mirror and
scratched up my car. It really ticked me off!"
Arabella seemed to vaguely remember Jones complaining about such an incident a few years ago.
"Anyway, they're just a bunch of thugs. Reporting them to the police doesn't do much good. The law
enforcement there is lax at best, so they're pretty fearless."
Jones paused, taking a deep breath, "Boss, even if you don't flaunt your wealth, I'm still worried. Just
by your looks, you're bound to attract attention. I fear there will be a lot of people following you. If they
just take your money it's one thing, but if a group of brutes were to hold you down, frisk you,
considering how beautiful you are."
"Do you think they'll hold me down?" Arabella laughed, "Don't worry, I'll keep a low profile."
“Why not ask Jack and the others to come along?"
Jack was also in Dawnstar, helping Arabella interrogate a few men in black, still no results.
“If I can't handle a small thing like this without calling him, then what's the point in being the boss?
Don't worry, I can handle it. Goodbye."
Arabella put away her phone and walked into the hospital room, saying to the bodyguards there, "I'm
stepping out for a bit. Take care of my Grandpa."
"Rest assured, Ms. Bella, we'll protect Mr. Darren with our lives if we have to."
Arabella nodded, gave her grandpa a glance, and seeing his peaceful face, she finally left.
Meanwhile.
Gordon approached Bard, "Sir, our men have checked. Bowen, Arthur, and the other four maids, none
of them have a wolf tattoo below their collarbone"
Bard's eyes deepened. So they were not from that group.
"I told you to get some rest. Why are you back here?"
"Sir, I've rested from the morning till the afternoon. Five hours of sleep is enough. Thank you for your
concern."
Bard was surprised at his dedication, his impression of the young man increased, “What else did you
find out?"
"In the afternoon, I used some persuasive means. At first, they wouldn't say anything, but when I
threatened their families, one of the maids broke. She said they had all been taken care of by Mr. Elliot
before, so they were willing to work for him."
"Did you manage to find out where Elliot is hiding?" Bard asked calmly.
