Chapter 690: Chapter 689
Keira Olsen imdiately looked at Lewis Horton nervously upon hearing this, only to see a smile tugging at the corner of Lewis’s lips.
She imdiately understood that at least Trident Seafood had reached an agreent with Lewis.
They would release the person.
Erin South Martin saw that both of them were relaxed and beca anxious. She said to Keira Olsen, “You’d better quickly report this to the higher-ups, things have gotten complicated! That ‘king’ from Trident Seafood, I’ve dealt with him before. He doesn’t budge an inch.”
Keira Olsen raised an eyebrow: “King?”
Erin South Martin nodded: “Yes, their leader is called king, he’s like a pirate boss. It’s said that he took control of the Trident Strait five years ago and his followers are pretty formidable. They have a very aggressive approach to doing things.”
She looked at Keira Olsen and whispered, “To tell you the truth, if you can establish a good relationship with this king and secure that perilous sea route, it could significantly bolster your bid for the heir position in the competition!”
Keira Olsen looked at Erin South Martin intently: “So, you’re really not my adversary, you are indeed helping .”
Erin South Martin: ??
She took a step back, threw so sunflower seeds from her pocket into her mouth, and then said, “What are you talking about? This Trident Strait matter, you better take it seriously…”
Keira Olsen crossed her arms and looked straight at her: “The way you reacted earlier doesn’t seem like you’ve betrayed us. However, since we’ve been here, you’ve been insisting on following us, which suggests that you ca to protect , right?”
Erin South Martin frowned, “I’m telling you sothing important, can you please not change the subject?”
“To , who you really are and what our relationship truly is, that is the most important matter,” Keira Olsen slowly said.
Erin South Martin: “…”
Erin South Martin felt uneasy under her gaze, almost getting goosebumps: “What’s wrong with you, really… I just don’t want you to die so soon. I want you to be the one to charge into battle for ! With you competing against the other heirs, when the ti cos, I can reap the benefits like a fisherman watching from the shore!”
While saying this, Erin South Martin sprinted guiltily into the cabin, “Enough talk, I’m tired. Aren’t you tired from rushing here all the way? Go to sleep! After we return ho tomorrow, there’s a tough fight ahead!”
Keira Olsen asked, “What fight?”
Erin South Martin replied, “You guys lost Professor Brandt. Even if you explain the reasons to the civil affairs, there’s no evidence! Isn’t that a tough fight? And I’ve heard that the Olsen Group is holding a press conference tomorrow. There’s sothing they want to announce! My uncle made it clear—anyway, they will announce that they’re not throwing you out of the house.”
With that, she yawned and went into the cabin.
Keira Olsen watched her back, then turned to Lewis Horton: “She really doesn’t seem to be my adversary, nor does she seem to want as a subordinate like she claid. I feel like she’s hiding sothing from us.”
Lewis Horton nodded: “I’ve never felt any malice from her.”
That’s also why they did not suspect Erin South Martin to be the Fox when they first t her…
But if Erin South Martin is the Fox, and she is the Rabbit, natural enemies, why would Erin South Martin be so good to her?
Keira Olsen furrowed her brows.
After a while, she shook her head: “If it doesn’t make sense now, I’ll stop thinking about it. When the day cos that it can be discussed, she’ll tell us eventually… By the way, what’s your relationship with the pirate boss from Trident Strait?”
Lewis Horton simply said: “We were classmates when we studied abroad. I’ve helped him out before, so he’s willing to help . Don’t worry, Professor Brandt will return to the country on ti tomorrow.”
Keira Olsen nodded: “Alright, got it.”
The two of them headed into the cabin’s room together.
Keira Olsen was indeed tired. She hadn’t slept all night and day, and fell asleep as soon as she hit the bed. When she woke up, the ship had just docked.
Keira Olsen stretched, left the cabin with Erin South Martin and Lewis Horton, picked up her phone, and saw several ssages.
Most of them were from Jas Olsen: “Cousin, where did you go? Uncle is holding a press conference today; he wants you to co ho.”
Then ca a news link from Jas Olsen.
Keira Olsen opened it and found a video posted online by journalists of the day she was surrounded on the street, with netizens cursing her for her condescending look at the people around her.
Keira Olsen frowned.
That day, when she faced the crowd, her gaze was indeed a bit fierce, and now everyone online was criticizing her.
The next ssage from Jas Olsen read: [Cousin, did you go abroad? Then go enjoy a few more days there, don’t co back for now. Everybody is trying to dox you, I’m afraid you might be recognized on the street again.]
Only then did Keira Olsen reply: [I’m heading ho now.]
