Chapter 1451
Even though this house wasn''t the best ce to live in, it was clear that the sisters were happy with
what they had right now. I went straight to the point and said to Susan, "I''m trying to track Yonas
down. I know that he was the one who helped you find the entrance. I''d like you to persuade him to
bring us along to the Emperor Club."
She lowered her head, busy washing the pots and pans. After a while, she spoke again, "Are you
looking for him so that he can lead you to the basement?"
I murmured in agreement.
She looked at me and said, "You actually don''t need to go in there and look around yourself. You
could have just called the police. If the police show up out of the blue, they won''t have the time to
transport the evidence. Those items can only be transported through the elevator. If suddenly
everything is put under investigation, there''s nothing they can do except wait."
I smiled faintly without refuting her words. "I''ll take it into consideration, but we still need you to
convince Yonas."
She was caught in a moment of silence. "I''m not
sure if I can convince him. Have you found him?"
I shook my head and answered, "Not yet!"
"Oh," she said as she walked to the table and took a seat. She turned to me and asked, "Wanna eat
together?"
I didn''t want to interrupt her dinner time, so I just shook my head and quietly waited for her to finish
her meal.
The room was enveloped in an atmosphere of stillness. After a moment, I said, "I thought everything
I did was right, but it seems that I''m foolish to think so. I should have been quicker on my feet."
Susan frowned, trying to make sense of what I had said. "What are you talking about, Miss Reid?"
I replied with a smiling face, "Nothing, I''m just making fun of myself. Alright, I should get going now.
I''ll call you up as soon as I''ve found Yonas."
After that, I got up on my feet and left her house.
I got out of the vige and hopped into the car. Evan informed me, "Mrs. Roberts, John has news of
Yonas."
I nodded in acknowledgment before I gave my instructions, "Please get someone to keep an eye on
the Emperor Club, especially any trucks or vehicles entering and leaving the ce."
He nodded.
I had many unresolved doubts in my heart. I never figured out if Sebastian had anything to do with
Susan''s reappearance. It seemed that my encounter with her here in Asherton was too much of a
coincidence.
Thinking of this, I gave Naomi a call. She answered with a cold tone, seemingly different from her
usual chatty character. "You''ve finally called."
"Let''s meet up at the cafe!" I went straight to the point.
Naomi nodded and agreed, "Alright!"
Evan and I immediately went over to the agreed upon venue.
In the cafe.
Naomi arrived before me. When I got to the cafe, she had already ordered her cup of coffee. She
seemed to look different from before. Her eyes were darting back and forth, with a sense of
coldness and hostility in them.

Not only that, she didn''t seem to be as enthusiastic as before when she saw me. She weed me
with only a faint smile and said, "You''re here. Have a seat!"
I took a seat and looked at her without saying a single word. I was waiting for her to initiate the
conversation.
She knew what I was doing. After a long silence, she finally spoke, "Since when did you know that
he liked you?"
Of course, Naomi was talking about Sebastian.
Pursing my lips, I replied honestly, "He wanted to get ownership of Oand from the Hayes family.
Hendrix was taken away and locked in the freezer at that time, but we managed to escape together.
I''ve known ever since then."
Hearing my exnation, she then replied, "All the hustle and bustle in this world is only for money.
I''m not in any position to interfere in your businesses. I only found out about everything recently,
and I''m sorry to say this, but Arianna, we can''t be friends anymore."
I shrugged, not too bothered by her statement. "I know. After all, it''s your choice to make. Either
way, I''ll respect your decision. About what happened in the Emperor Club, it doesn''t matter anymore
if you did it on purpose or not. You should know better than anyone that I''m not here to get an
apology out of you."
