Carlisle was silent for a moment. He said, "Is there any way to get her out?"
"There's pretty much zero possibility of that," Wendell said firmly.
"Let me put it this way. Apart from the soldiers stationed there, they also have huge numbers of bodyguards inside. Those bodyguards are mostly like me. They're all retired from the force.
"In fact, being able to see Wanda today was just pure luck. We may not even be able to see her the next time we send supplies over!"
Disappointment flashed in Carlisle's eyes. "Who owns that hospital? Perhaps we can find a way through the owner?"
Wendell was silent for a long time. After he gulped down a mouthful of hard liquor, he said slowly, "Do you know who Gareth is?"
"Yes!"
"Since he hasn't told you himself, then I can't either!"
"Do you mean that Gareth knows?" Carlisle asked.
"It was Gareth who told us that Wanda might be in that place!"
"Alright. I understand. You should stay in Yorksle and keep sending supplies to that place. Find a way to develop a good relationship with them. It doesn't matter how much money you have to spend!"
"This time, I spent almost one hundred thousand to develop those connections."
"Tomorrow, I'll arrange positions in Aurora Holdings for you and transfer the money needed for the trip's expenses."
After the call ended, Carlisle called Gareth at once.
"Carl?"
"Gareth, who's the owner of that hospital?"
"Huh? Is the signal bad here? What did you say?" Gareth was clearly trying to avoid the topic.
Carlisle said in a low voice, "Gareth, if you think of me as a friend, please tell me."
Gareth was silent.
Carlisle did not say anything either.
After a long time, there was the sound of a lighter flicking on from the other end of the phone.
Gareth lit a cigarette and inhaled deeply before saying, "It seems that they've already found
Wanda. I thought you only needed to know if she was doing well."
Carlisle was seven or eight years younger than Gareth was, and his business was just starting.
Gareth did not want Carlisle to feel even more stressed.
"Wanda wouldn't be happy there." Carlisle's voice was hoarse.
Wanda would not be able to have any contact with the outside world in that place.
Otherwise, she would have contacted him long ago.
Perhaps she wasn't even allowed to have access to any electronic products.
Gareth did not answer. He just hung up.
Carlisle listened to the busy signal on his phone and sat dazedly in his chair, looking as if his soul had left him.
What kind of person could make Gareth so wary? Gareth came from a prominent family who had important positions in the government.
Lethan and Shania would probably know.
Carlisle's eyes flashed, and he called Lethan at once.
"Carl?"
"I've found Wanda!"
"What? Where is she?" Lethan was shocked.
Carlisle asked in a low voice, "Who is the most important person that Shein knows?"
"The most important person he knows? What do you mean by that?" Lethan was confused.
Carlisle frowned slightly, and he prompted Lethan. "Among his connections in Yorksle, who's the most important and influential?"
Lethan was even more confused. "I really have no idea about that. Although I'm his brother- in-law, we rarely interact."
Carlisle could tell that Lethan wasn't lying. He said in resignation, "Fine. I'm hanging up."
After ending the call, he called Shania.
"Carl?"
"Do you have some time, Shania?"
"Yes, I do. Go ahead."
"Who is that formidable person in Yorksle Shein has ties with?"
"Huh? Wh-what formidable person are you talking about?" Shania paused when she
answered.
Carlisle immediately guessed that Shania knew something.
After a moment's silence, he said slowly, "I know all about it already. Can you tell me about
this prestigious family?"
Shania hesitated for a long time without saying anything.
How had Carlisle found out?
Who had told him?
Had Zachary told him?
That didn't seem possible.
Before Wanda was engaged, Zachary would never reveal this secret.
Carlisle must be trying to trick her into spilling it all out.
Carlisle was a cheeky little devil!
"I" Shania was about to speak when Carlisle suddenly cut her off.
"Who is the person that Wanda has a marriage alliance with?"
