forward. “You can write an email and tell me what’s wrong when you’re back in Chanaea. If you’re inspired, you can even write a ten-thousand-word email.”“Xavier!” Nate turned around again, his expression was solemn and his voice was low. “I’m not kidding with you. I think someone’s been watching us from the shadows.”Xavier halted in his tracks before surveying his surroundings. Then, he asked, “Who is it? Are you talking about the airport staff?”It was not entirely impossible that no one would be watching them. After all, any normal person would be able to see that Xavier was forcing Nate to walk somewhere else.However, Nate said, “No, it’s definitely not the airport staff. The airport staff wouldn’t be acting so suspiciously. Moreover, the staff members are all wearing uniforms. The ones I saw earlier were wearing black suits.”Hearing that, Xavier narrowed his eyes and stopped searching the area. Instead, he pretended as if nothing had happened and continued pushing Nate down the path.Nate immediately flew into a panic. “You have to believe me, Xavier! I’m not lying to you!”“I know.” Xavier gritted his teeth. “Shut up. I know what to do.”As he spoke, he pushed Nate to the back of a giant billboard.Right as Nate was about to speak, Xavier lifted his arm and stopped him.At that, Nate instantly realized that Xavier was trying to lure the people who were tailing them out.Indeed, not long after they “disappeared” behind the billboard, someone ran out.Upon hearing the urgent footsteps behind them, Nate lifted his head to glance at Xavier.“Xavier, they must be the ones who were following us earlier. They must have come for us.”Xavier lowered his head to look at Nate and emphasized, “They’re here for me, so scram and go home.”While they spoke, the few men in black arrived at the back of the billboard.Once they spotted Xavier, they formed a circle to surround Xavier and Nate.Xavier’s sharp eyes met with the leading man’s eyes.“Who are you, and why are you following me?”The leader of the men in black was expressionless as he said to Xavier, “Greetings, Mr. Fairchild. Mr. Speiser wishes to invite you for a meeting. Please come with us.”“Wilhelm Speiser?”“That is correct, Mr. Fairchild.”Xavier drew his brows together. He had contacted Winnie before his trip.She told him that she was going to the airport to pick him up, but he did not want her to exert herself, so he rejected her offer. He had also asked her for the address, planning to head there himself to meet up with her.However, what Winnie never mentioned to him was that her brother, Wilhelm Speiser, was going to pick him up.Therefore, Xavier ignored the man in black and took out his phone instead. He called Winnie, but she did not pick up the call.Xavier thought that Winnie might not have her phone with her at the moment, but what he did not know was that Winnie was actually watching her phone vibrate in front of her
