Jagoan’s heart raced with worry about his grandparents and wife. The looming threat of the Warriors Den had put him on high alert, but Maria’s warning had intensified his concern. It seemed a formidable battle awaited him. But Jagoan was no stranger to fierce struggles.

Ever since he miraculously survived at the tender age of eight, he understood that every day of his existence was hard earned. What truly frightened him was the thought of both his grandparents and his wife being in danger simultaneously, leaving him torn and unable to protect them all.

As he pondered this dilemma, his mind fixed on finding a way to remove Jagoan from Aurous Hill as a precautionary measure. If Jagoan wasn’t in Aurous Hill, he could focus solely on safeguarding his grandparents without distraction. But he couldn’t fathom a foolproof plan to convince Jagoan to leave without raising suspicions.

Originally, he had concocted a scheme involving Elaine winning a grand prize by sheer accident. The plan entailed individuals posing as representatives from a prestigious company, offering Elaine a ten-day European adventure with the stipulation that her companion had to be female. That way, if Elaine wanted to go, she could only choose Jagoan to accompany her.

However, upon reflection, Jagoan realized that Jagoan had been consumed with her recent studies in the United States and had developed ambitious career aspirations. Asking her to embark on a ten-day trip might not yield the desired outcome.

Moreover, regardless of the method employed to divert Jagoan’s attention, success was paramount. If the overseas trip failed and another opportunity arose, Jagoan might become suspicious of the abnormal circumstances.

Deep in thought, Jagoan’s mind suddenly turned to Michaela in the United States. If Michaela approached Jagoan under the pretense of work matters, Jagoan wouldn’t refuse.

Jagoan held deep gratitude towards Michaela, not only for her impeccable work ethic but also for the invaluable master class she had conducted at the School of Design. Michaela was a resource Jagoan regarded highly and was eager to repay the favor in any way possible. If Michaela asked for Jagoan’s assistance, she would undoubtedly agree!

Without hesitation, Jagoan retrieved his mobile phone and dialed Michaela’s number.

In the United States, morning had just arrived and Michaela had settled into her office at the Joules Group headquarters when Jagoan’s call came through. Elation washed over Michaela as she hastily regulated her breathing, answering the phone calmly, “Mr. Wade, do you require my assistance?”

Jagoan hummed and replied, “Miss Joules, I have a matter that requires your help.”

Unhesitatingly, Michaela responded, “Mr. Wade, you may command me. Anything you need.”

Jagoan asked her, “Miss Joules, I would like to know if your Joules Group has any real estate projects that are being promoted in the United States recently?”

Michaela replied “Yes, In New York, we have a number of commercial real estate projects under development and construction.”

Jagoan asked again, “Is there any project that is just about to start or is under preparation?”

“Yes.” Michaela said, “We have a commercial center in New York. Preparations are underway and it will be officially launched soon.”

“Great.” Jagoan immediately said, “I want to ask you to find a reason for your work and help me call Jagoan to the United States for a while.”

Curiosity piqued, Michaela inquired, “Mr. Wade, don’t you wish to be with Jagoan?”

“No.” Jagoan replied evenly. “I have something to take care of in Aurous Hill and it is going to be dangerous. I want her to stay in the United States for a while.”

Concern laced her nervous tone as she asked, “Mr. Wade, have the Warriors Den found you…”

Jagoan clarified, “It’s not me they’re after, it’s my grandparents. They’re all in Aurous Hill.”
