When Tristan arrives at the airport, he rushes to the international terminal, but when he is about to walk inside, he sees a familiar figure walk in his direction.
"Sean..." Tristan smiled at him, "Are you going abroad?" he asked after accepting Sean’s warm handshake.
"Long ti no see, bro..." Sean didn’t answer him; instead, he greeted Tristan politely.
Sean was stunned to et this man here. He knows Tristan will never take a comrcial flight. He might co here to et his business partner.
"Yes. It’s been a while, Sean. Nice to et you." Tristan smiles back at him. "Are you going abroad?" he asked again.
"Nope. But I have just sent off my friend. How about you?"
"Such a coincidence, Sean. I’m also about to et soone..." Tristan answers while checking his watch. "Man, I’m sorry I can’t talk to you for a long; I have to go now. I will contact you later..."
"Go! Don’t make your friend waiting, bro..."
"Send my regards to your father, Sean."
"Sure, I will!" Sean said and waved his hand, looking at Tristan walking in a hurry and heading inside. At the sa ti, his cell phone rang. He imdiately checks and smiles, looking at the incoming text ssage.
[Bella:] I’m boarding now. Thank you for erasing my trace, Sean.
[Sean:] (Smile emoji) I hope you have a safe flight, Bells.
[Sean:] Text when you arrive at your destination.
[Bella:] OK!
After placing his cell phone in his pocket, he walks in a hurry toward the pickup area. He saw a black van stop before him.
"Capt, we better move now, or we will be late," a man with black clothes, with a similar posture to Sean, said. He opened the back row for Sean and gestured for him to enter.
"Thank you," Sean smiled as he entered the car.
His subordinate jaw dropped when he saw his icy captain’s smile like spring had co after winter.
’Wow, looks like our icy captain’s heart finally lted...’ He silently praised his captain. ’Who the lucky girl who can ta him!?’
"What are you waiting for!? Why do you cosplay like the mannequin there?" Sean’s icy voice strikes his subordinate from his trance.
"Y-Yes, Capt!!" The man shouted. He rushed into the car, unwilling to make his captain even more sulk.

anwhile, at the international flight terminal, Dylan felt tired and sweaty after he ran from one gate to another but couldn’t find Bella and her maid.
Dylan no longer has the energy to continue searching, so he decides to make a call to Tristan.
"You found her?" Tristan’s voice sounded impatient on the other end, which surprised Dylan. He didn’t expect his Boss to pick up his call on the first ring.
"B-Boss, I’m sorry, but I didn’t find Ms. Bella... It seems she is already boarding," Dylan said apologetically.
Even though Tristan was disappointed he couldn’t find Bella, he no longer forced Dylan to look for her. Instead, he asked Dylan to return to his hotown using his jet as promised.
After Tristan ended the call, he didn’t leave his spot, his gaze sharply looking at the flight information in front of him. anwhile, his mind was busy looking for answers to the questions now filling his mind.
Tristan didn’t understand why he was curious to know about Bella. The more he thought about it, the more he wanted to know her thoughts and why she suddenly left this country.
After another few minutes, Tristan walked outside the airport while making a call.
"Max, I want you to find soone. Her na is Bella Donovan; she left the country—" Tristan continued to tell his hacker what he knew about Bella.
"No worries, Boss, I will find her. This is an easy task!" Max responds confidently.
Tristan finally smiles after hearing Max’s words, "I will wait for the good news, Max!"
...
While driving his car, Tristan feels even more confused to himself. He had never felt like this toward Bella; he wanted to et her.
This is weird. Because during their marriage, he never felt like being around her. He would only co ho when it was ti to carry out his duties as a man, solely to get her pregnant.
Rushing to the airport only to catch a glimpse of her seed a very unreasonable thing for him to do, but he did it anyway.
What puzzled Tristan even more was that he didn’t know what to say to her if they t. How strange!
Not long after.
Tristan’s cell phone rang. When he saw Max calling, he imdiately used his earbuds and picked up.
"Hello, Boss. Can we talk now?"
"Yes. You might speak." Tristan answers with a smile on his face.
"Boss, I’ve tracked Ms. Bella Donovan’s flight information. But," Max’s voice sounded confused and worried. "Sothing suspicious about her identity..."
Tristan’s smile slowly disappeared when he heard Max’s words, "What do you an, suspicious?"
Max took a deep breath before saying, "Boss, I tried to track Ms. Bella Donovan’s flight, but I couldn’t find her data on any flights. And when I tried to track her other docunts, looking for which country she applied for visas or anything related to her travels, but her identity can’t be accessed..."
Tristan was shocked. He imdiately parked in the nearby parking area and continued his conversation with Max.
"Are you sure about that, Max?"
"Yes, Boss. Anything related to Ms. Bella Donovan can’t be accessed—"
"What do you an you can’t access her database!? You just need to check the immigration database, right!?" Tristan was confused; this was the first ti Max had failed to do sothing he had asked.
"Boss, Ms. Bella’s identity status is top secret. Only a few people in this country have this kind of status, a secret agent or the president of this country." Max explained further. "If I try to force it, the secret agent will co to my place in a few minutes and arrest ."
As a hacker, there are rules he cannot break. One of them is disrupting this country’s military cyber security. Even though he was confident in his abilities, he dared not do that.
"How about her maid?"
"Sa. Ms. Noora’s identity also can’t be traced."
No words ca out of Tristan’s mouth. He was simply shocked by the situation. He imdiately ended the call and continued driving his car. However, his curiosity about Bella Donovan increased.
