Since Shannon stored her $200 million in Regarton Bank, it implied that all the funds in her ount


    were the proceeds of corruption.


    The effortless ess to such a significant sum suggests that her embezzlement amount was


    astronomical, likely extracted from various parts of the Salvador Corporation, as well as bribes she


    received leveraging her position as the chairman’s wife.


    n, has Shannon transferred the funds to Winston ?” Justin asked with a deep gaze.


    “Yes, she transferred it,”n replied.


    “Has he withdrawn it?”


    “Not yet. With such arge sum, he’ll need a truck to transport it.


    Using cash would draw him too much attention, and he still needs to make his escape,”n exined.


    Justin nodded in agreement. “Very well. Contact the authorities immediately to freeze Winston’s


    ount.”


    “Yes, Mr. Salvador!”n immediately stood up to carry out the instructions.


    Indeed, the police would be of help when ites to freezing ounts.


    “Hah, if that bastard fails to get his hands on the money, he’ll probably get anxious and turn against


    Shannon.”


    Be’s sharp, prating gaze conveyed confidence. “Right now, all we have to do is track down


    Winston. Once we catch him, he won’t hesitate to spill all of Shannon’s dirty secrets.”


    “I have news about that guy.” With a hint of mischief in his demeanor, Ryan casually crossed his legs


    and dropped this bombshell.


    Be and Justin reacted in surprise, “What?!”


    “Why else would I suddenlye over to see you guys? For a casual visit? Even if I were to do that, I’d


    bring my girlfriend along.”


    Ryan’s left arm draped over the back of the sofa, in a manner befitting a mafia boss. “The Hoffmans


    received a lead when searching the Southbay Pier. Two fishermen spotted Winston sneaking onto a


    cargo ship bound for Terranova at midnight two days ago. It seems like he’s nning to sneak out of


    the country.”


    “Terranova ? Do you think he might stop in other countries along the way?” Be frowned with concern.


    “That’s possible. But the two countries along the route are desol wastnds. What’s he going to do


    there with $200 million? Work aborer?”


    Ryan continued, “That’s why I’ve instructed my men to secretly track him down. We’ll check all the


    other ports in other countries along the route, but it’s best not to alert anyone prematurely. If he decides


    to abandon the ship midway or switch to another vessel, like a yacht or dinghy, it’ll significantly


    complicate our efforts to capture him. Be,


    Justin, don’t worry. Even if he manages to leave the country and evade immediate capture by the


    authorities, the Hoffmans will make sure he’s brought back to you in one piece.”


    Smuggling goods across borders was a skill the Hoffmans excelled in. After all, it was the foundation


    on which they built their empire.


    “My eldest brother also has connections in Terranova. I’ll contact him soon. We can work with him and


    catch Winston without him knowing we’re having our eyes on him,” Be said eagerly, itching to get


    involved in the operation itself.


    “Ah, it would be even better if Asher could lend a hand!” Ryan grinned.


    Justin’s sharp gaze turned into darts, piercing Ryan’s ttering face with cold disdain. ‘When did this


    guy learn to be so groveling? Who is this pathetic expression he put on for?!’


    With both Justin and Ryan delivering good news, Be wore a smile on her face.


    As the host, Be still possessed the most basic manners. She headed to the bar to serve them some


    drinks.


    While Be was away, Ryan shuffled over to sit beside Justin, leaning in close to him.

    “Are you cold or something?” Justin asked in a cool tone.


    “Huh? Not at all.”
