Chapter 343

Raydon's words were so righteous that Hannah couldn't find anything to say in response. But everyone knew he was really helping Jack.

Wilson and Duncan both had miserable expressions on their faces, realizing that their secrets were about to be exposed. They looked for any opportunity to escape.

But at that moment, Raydon gave a subtle glance, and the security guards who had been waiting outside swiftly blocked the exit. No one was leaving without Raydon's command.

The surveillance footage was retrieved, and the truth was undeniable.

What made matters worse was that the camera was high-definition, capturing every detail, including Wilson and Duncan's twisted expressions as they drugged the drink.

When the footage was shown, Wilson and Duncan collapsed in fear, their bodies going limp as they were dragged by the hotel security-like scolded mutts being tossed out of a restaurant.

With Wilson and Duncan taken care of, Jack and Bella were in high spirits. Jack happily took Bella's hand and led her out of the hotel.

Hannah, seeing this, was absolutely livid. The Entrepreneurs Association's reputation had been thoroughly tarnished by the disgrace of Wilson and Duncan.

She decided to take out her frustration on Jack. Fresh chapters posted on find[ɴ]ovel.net

She pointed at Jack's back and almost angrily shouted, "Don't get too proud of yourself! Remember this, from today on, you'll be the enemy of the Entrepreneurs Association. You'll have no connections to Alnewgo University's vast alumni network. You'll pay dearly for your arrogance today!"

Hannah's words were full of warnings and threats, implying that Jack would not only be excluded from the Entrepreneurs Association but also from the mainstream circles of Alnewgo University. For any student with aspirations, this would be a crushing blow.

But to Jack, it meant nothing at all.

For Bella, though, her heart was filled with regret. She knew that the closing of the Entrepreneurs Association's doors meant Jack would lose out on many valuable resources and opportunities.

Feeling guilty that she had caused all of this, Bella softly said, "Big Bun, I'm sorry." Jack smiled as he gently stroked her hair, then leaned in to kiss her on the cheek. "It's me who should apologize. I didn't protect you well enough."

Bella felt a surge of sweetness in her heart, and her eyes welled up with tears.

Jack held her tightly and kissed her deeply on the lips. The two of them became lost in the kiss, as though the entire world around them had disappeared.

It wasn't until a student walked by and reminded them to be mindful of the setting that they reluctantly pulled apart.

Bella's face was flushed, but her eyes sparkled with pride and happiness. She wanted everyone to witness her love for Jack.

Meanwhile, Andrew, as his country's ambassador, was on the phone with Jason at Crawford's embassy.

Just moments ago, Jason had informed him that the neighboring country, Paria, had opened its borders to allow them to pass through, and the relevant national departments had already negotiated with the Euphoria countries. They planned to send ships to Paria's port to pick them up.

However, there was a slight uncertainty in Jason's voice. Since the information came from Charlotte, it felt a bit untrustworthy.

To be cautious, Jason suggested that Andrew send an advance team to check the situation. If there were any issues, they would have time to prepare alternative plans.

As Andrew was about to hang up and send someone to verify Jason's information,

a sudden loud barrage of artillery fire erupted outside.

A military officer rushed in in a panic, reporting, "Mr. Grant, the government forces have fallen! The rebel army has entered the capital! We need to leave immediately, or it'll be too late!"

The situation was urgent.

Andrew's wife and daughter looked at him with terror in their eyes.
