Stanley , along with Zayn and their team , entered Jetmore . As they made their way through , Stanley spotted a group of villagers and immediately approached them .
“ Excuse me , could you tell me if two people came into your village today ? ”
The villagers eyed him warily . “ Who are you ? What brings you here ? ”
Stanley was straightforward . “ We’re here looking for someone . ”
The villagers quickly waved him off . “ No one’s come into our village ! We don’t welcome
outsiders . You should leave . ”
A couple of the villagers began to usher Stanley away .
Zayn opened his mouth to speak , but Stanley raised a hand to stop him . “ Alright , then . We’ll leave . Thank you for your time . ”
Stanley turned and began to walk away .
Zayn , confused , frowned . “ Mr. Hawk , why are we leaving ? I have a feeling Ms. Wendy and Benny are here ! ”
Stanley’s gaze turned sharp and cold , his eyes piercing like a hawk’s . “ It’s not just a feeling, Zayn . I’m certain they’re here . ”
“ Then why are we leaving ? ”
“ Didn’t you see ? Those villagers are incredibly hostile . I saw one of them go into the village to get reinforcements . We don’t have enough people , and we’re on their turf . We can’t force our way in . ”
The key point was that Stanley still had no idea where Wendy and Benny were . If things got physical , it would only put Wendy and Benny in more danger .
Stanley felt like he was at a disadvantage , unable to act freely . His hands were tied by the

village’s resistance .
“ I’ve already sent for backup , ” Zayn reported .
Stanley nodded . “ We still need to find a way into the village . ”
As soon as the words left his mouth , a voice rang out .
“ Who are you ? ”
Stanley turned , and behind him stood Fiona Kemp .

Fiona was the village chief’s daughter and Alec’s younger sister . She had spotted Stanley from a distance . His striking features , noble presence , and regal stature made him stand
out wherever he went . Like a magnet , he attracted her attention .
Fiona , a beauty herself , had never met anyone as handsome and charismatic as Stanley , so
she couldn’t help but walk over .
Looking at him with interest , Fiona said , “ I’m the village chief’s daughter , Fiona . Is there anything I can help you with ? ”
Stanley’s eyes lit up . He hadn’t expected Fiona to approach him so willingly .
“ Hello . We’re looking for someone . ”
“ Who are you looking for ? ”
“ A man and a woman . They’re both very good looking . ”
Fiona looked at Stanley with a soft , almost flirtatious gaze . “ What’s your relationship with the good – looking woman ? ”
Zayn , watching the scene unfold , silently cursed his boss’s damning good looks , attracting
unwanted attention wherever he went .
Stanley , aware of Fiona’s interest , knew how to handle situations like this . He had many women around him – each one with different charms – and he could read their intentions

Right now , he needed Fiona’s help , so he decided to play along with her attraction .
“ They’re my siblings . They fell off a yacht and were washed ashore here . I’ve come to find
them . ”
Fiona’s eyes brightened . “ Are you married ? ”
Stanley shook his head . “ I’m not . Can you help us ? ”
Hearing that Stanley was still single made Fiona even happier . “ I’ll be honest with you . Today , my brother brought a man and a woman into the village . The man’s leg was badly injured . ”
Finally , Stanley had the information he’d been searching for . Regardless of any injuries , at least they were still alive .
The heavy weight that had been pressing down on his chest finally lifted .
“ Ms. Fiona , could you take us to see
them ? ”
