Chapter 1554
Out of the blue, Rosalynn started to feel that maybe fate wasn’t being a total jerk to her.
While she was deep in thought, an unexpected call came in from overseas.
Rosalynn was about to hang up, but seeing where the call wasing from, she unconsciously raised
an eyebrow.
She turned around, walked through the side door of the living room and into the little garden at the
back, then answered the call.
“Who’s this?” She asked.

On the other end of the line, a friendlyugh from a man came through, “Ms. Jared, this is Hunt
Khunban. You might have heard of me.”
“Oh, Mr. Khunban, what’s up?” Rosalynn answered, not being confrontational but maintaining a friendly
tone.
“Ms. Jared, I think there’s been a misunderstanding between you and my wife. I’d like to help clear the
air, mediate between you two.” Hunt’s tone remained cordial, “I heard one of my wife’s bodyguards
decided to hurt you on her own, which has pissed off President Jared. Now she’s mad as hell and
wants me to hand over my wife…”
“So you’re saying your wife had nothing to do with it and it was all her underling’s doing?” Rosalynn’s
voice held a hint of sarcasm, “Mr. Khunban, let’s leave your wife out of this for now. I have another
matter, was nning to ask you in person, but since you reached out, I might as well ask.”
Hunt went silent for a moment, then continued in his friendly tone, “Ms. Jared, whatever you want to
ask, fire away. I’ll tell you.”
“After my husband’s incident, President Jared immediately contacted you to tighten up on the ports.
The ship my husband was on, I’ve checked, the route he took out was through your turf. We gave you
a heads-up about this crucial location, but the ship still managed to leave the port smoothly. Why is
that?”
Hunt was panicked. Now he’s got to deal with Gabrie digging up his past before he’s even solved the
current problem!
After Heatherway’s death, he thought he ought to do something. So he agreed to Hria’s request to
tighten up on the port on the surface, but behind the scenes, he told his men to just go through the
motions.
He didn’t expect this decision to let the ship carrying Wayne slip through!
“Are you sure it left from a port under my control?” Hunt, who grew up in a rough-and-tumble
environment, was always quick on his feet, “Give me some time, I’ll get to the bottom of this for you and
President Jared!”
“How much time do you need?” Rosalynn asked calmly, “With your abilities, a day should be enough to
figure this out, right?”
“A day is enough!” Hunt quickly responded, then added, “So about my wife…”
“I suggest you do as President Jared instructs, you know her temper, once she gets riled up, even I
can’t calm her down.” Rosalynn said with augh.
“Ms. Jared, my wife’s health isn’t good. She depends on medication to get by. Can we let bygones be
bygones and stop arguing over this?” Hunt’s voice hardened a bit, “You’re now the heir to the Jared
Group and the real power behind Bane Corporation. The value of the goods the Jared Group and Bane
Corporation buy from me every year is astronomical. For the sake of our long-term partnership, Ms.
Jared, you might want to give this some thought. After all, it never hurts to have more friends, right?”
