Chapter 177
Inerne seemed a bit nervous as she avoided his gaze and said, "How would I know where she is? Yonas, after I dropped you off at the hotel, I went to sleep myself
"Impossible." Yonas couldn't recall exactly what had happened, but he had some vague memories in his mind. He remembered Irene bringing him home and also recalled the conversation Irene had with the bartender, something about making a phone call He glanced at Irene. Tell me, what did you say to the bartender at the bar?"
"Nothing much, Yonas. He just told me the bar was about to close and asked me to take you out quickly. That's all" Irene replied.
Yonas didn't press further, knowing he wouldn't get much out of Irene. Still, he had this nagging feeling that something happened while he was drunk; he just couldn't put his finger on it. And now, Yasmine had blocked him-it was a type of panic he'd never experienced before.
Grabbing his car keys, he dashed out and drove straight to Yasmine's hotel. Yet, before he could enter, he was stopped at the entrance. "Sir, this is a restricted area-you cannot go in, the staff told him.
"Wasn't it open just a few days ago?" Yonas asked coldly
"Sir, it hadn't been closed off a few days ago. Today is the first day of restriction, the waiter explained..
Yonas stood there, stunned. He had forgotten that Yasmine was here for the Dekker Competition. The second stage of the Dekker Competition was closed to the public. He had been able to enter earlier because it wasn't restricted yet, but now, the hotel w was on lockdown.
The timing couldn't be worse; the problem had to arise at this critical moment. Even if he wanted to find Yasmine right now, he couldn't meet her. 'I need to find someone Can you help connect me to a room phone? Yonas asked.
*Sir. if it's urgent, you can contact him, but the conversation will need to be recorded, the staff member replied.
"That's fine," Yonas agreed.
The staff led Yonas to the witchboard, and he gave Yasmine's room number. The ringing of the phone sounded like it was stepping on Yonas's heart, making him unintentionally tense up. His hands were rightly clasped together, and sweat had started to form in his palms. "Hello" I was Yasmine's voice.
"M. Sanchez, there's a gentleman who wants to speak with you, the staff said.
Yasmine paused for a moment. "Who?"
Yonas looked at the staff member and said, "My last name is Rong"
This gentleman's last name is Rong the staff member informed
Tell him there's no need to talk. We should just go our separate ways" Yasmine said.
The phone gave a series of beeps.. beeps... the busy signal made Yonas nod helplessly. "Thank you."
In her room, Yasmine stared at the phone for a long time after hanging up. Why did he reach out despite being blocked? Their story should have ended long ago, even if it was an incomplete ending. She should continue her own path, with her first spotlight being the Dekker Competition.

Back home, Yosellin was sitting in the living room waiting. As soon as she saw him, she rushed forward. "Yonas, how's Yasmine! Did you manage t win her back?
Yonas wasn't in high spirits. T'm going to see Grandpa
Seeing him like this, Yoselin could roughly guess the outcome. She sank back into the couch, feeling down. She suddenly recalled what her grandpa had said to Willum a couple of days ago
"Air you really so eager to have Irene join our family?" Nathan remarked.
"True keeps talking about You all day. It's driving me crazy. I'll just let her be your problem in the future, William fr

"Well, I can't wait for that," he replied.
At the Flynn residence. Since the last time Xavier sent 33 million to Yasmine, she indeed sent the storage card to him. When he opened the content in the study, he was startled. On the vast hotel bed, his sister was entangled with a man. With a stern face, he turned off the video and stormed into Helen's room with the card in hand. "You'd better stay put at home from now on, or I'll send you to stay with Grandpa
Helen looked at the memory card in her hand, feeling a bit nervous, though the one thing to be glad about was that the video was finally back in possession. After smashing the card and throwing it in the trash, she lay back on the bed, but just as she started to relax, her phone rang. Seeing the unknown caller number, a sudden tension ran through her. She answered it and immediately froze at the sound of his voice. It was him Dalton!
"Helen, you're something else! Getting your brother to send so many people to track me down, huh! Are you trying to get revenge! I'm not giving you the chance. Do you honestly think there's only one copy of the memory cand" Dalton laughed arrogantly
Helen gripped the phone and sat up from the bed, her face pale. "What do you mean? What on earth do you want! I've already given you forty-five million in total, and you're still not satisfied?"
"Not satisfied? You and your brother drove me to this! I had already left the country, but your brother forced me back, turned me into a fugitive. running everywhere. Do you really think I won't fight back?" Dalton demanded
"How could this be?" Helen was stunned. She knew Xavier had been trying to capture Dalton for days now, but she didn't realize Dalton was brazen enough to still call. The pursuit had gone on for so long without catching him. Dalton arrogantly said, "You can blame your brother for pushing me to desperation. Just you wait!"
He hung up the phone, leaving Helen in a daze. She q into the private study to recount what had happened. "Xavier! What do I do? He said he's going to post the video online. What should I do? Tears quickly dialed that number a few more times, but every time it was busy. Terrified, she rushed welled up as she spoke, her whole body trembling. That video could ruin her completely.
Xavier stared darkly at the phone number. "Don't be afraid." Yonas and Morgan were too much for him to handle, but Dalton was someone he still didn't take seriously,
He made a few calls to his assistant, and three hours later, Dalton was caught. When Xavier saw him, Dalton was lying on the ground, covered un bruises. "Are you Dalton Xavier looked down at him, like he was staring at a dead dog.
Dalton grinned, blood at the corner of his mouth. "What? Are you scared"
Xavier stepped on his back, his voice cold. "Where's the video!"
"Ta, do you think I'll tell you?"
"Will you speak or not?" Xavier's foot pressed down harder and harder.
Dalton grunted, enduring the pain. "You'll see i
tomorrow.
"Did you forget you have a sister?" Mavier asked Dalton in an even tone,
"You!" Dalton suddenly panicked, trying to push himself up with his hands, but was firmly pinned down by Xavier.
"Hand over the video and I won't bother with the rest, Xavier sand impatiently
Dalton gled a couple of times and said. "Jade Net Cafe
