Chapter 422: Chapter 422

Romeo then went to pay for his items, filling in his delivery address and contact information.

After he left, a customer approached the delivery staff.

"Excuse me, could you please give me the contact of that handsome guy just now?"

The staff apologized, "Sorry, young lady, as you saw, he has a girlfriend. It’s not nice to try and steal someone away."

"I just want to be his friend!"

"Sorry, but we can’t disclose our customer’s privacy."

No matter how much the young girl pleaded, the staff refused to reveal the delivery details.

"Can you give me her brother’s contact then? He’s also very handsome."

"Sorry, can’t do that either."

As Clark stepped out of the jewelry store, he realized he had misplaced something.

"Rose, why don’t you go ahead and look around? I seem to have lost something. I’ll catch up with you."

Seeing him somewhat worried, Rosemary couldn’t help but ask, "What did you lose?"

"Just... a good luck charm."

"A good luck charm?" Rosemary was surprised, as Clark seemed too carefree to carry such a thing.

"Hmm."

"I’ll go look for it."

Clark, looking very anxious, returned to the jewelry store.

Not knowing exactly where he had lost it, Clark searched the store and even asked several employees. No one had seen his charm.

Clark then retraced his steps back to the cinema. He had bought a lot of snacks there and wondered if he had dropped it while taking out his wallet.

"Hello, did anyone see a red triangular good luck charm, about this big?" Clark gestured. "It looks a bit old."

"Sorry, haven’t seen it," the popcorn seller regretfully said.

Clark had to search for himself. He looked around Hall Number 1 but didn’t find the familiar charm near their seats.

Clark remembered the girl’s bright and cheerful smile and the gentle way she had handed him the charm. He felt a deep sense of loss.

As he left Hall Number 1, Clark was a bit dazed until a janitor asked, "Did you lose something?"

Clark perked up and asked, "Did you see a red triangular charm?"

"Is this it?" The janitor took it out of his pocket.

Clark recognized his lost charm and was overjoyed. "Yes, that’s it! Thank you so much!"

He immediately opened his wallet and wanted to thank the janitor properly.

But the janitor declined, "This was just a small gesture. I can’t accept the money."

"You don’t know how important this charm is to me. You must take this money!"

Finally, Clark stuffed the money into the janitor’s pocket and quickly left.

Seeing Clark’s joy, Rosemary knew the charm held a special meaning for him.

"Did you find it?" Rosemary softly asked.

"I found it!"

Clark was so happy that he put the charm in his wallet and swore to himself that he would never lose it again.

At 10 p.m., the mall was about to close.

Romeo drove Rosemary and Clark back to Reflections Villa.

"Rose, I’ll pick you up tomorrow morning."

On hearing this, Clark instantly disagreed. "Rose finally has a day off. Let her sleep in tomorrow. Don’t disturb her rest. I’ll come by tomorrow afternoon."

"Are you always this free? At your age, shouldn’t you be focusing on your career to give my sister a more secure future? Young people can’t always focus on love. You need to think further ahead."

After lecturing him, Clark turned to his sister with a grin. "Where do you want to go tomorrow, Rose? I can accompany you."

"Romeo has some time."

"He should spend his time focusing more on work. I’m on vacation. I have plenty of time."

In the end, Romeo could only say, "Tomorrow, Rose and I are going to walk the glass bridge. I heard you have a fear of heights, Clark."

"Who told you that? Fear of heights? Absolutely not!" Clark retorted stubbornly. "I’m going too!"

Romeo and Rose were dumbfounded.

"So it’s settled then!" As Clark walked into the house, tugging at his sister’s sleeve, he whispered, "I still haven’t evaluated this guy’s character. We’ll continue tomorrow."

"Clark, shouldn’t you spend the day at home with Mom and Dad?"

"I’ve been with Mom and Dad for over twenty years. Now that I have time, I want to spend it with my little sister."

"Alright, then."

On the other hand, when Romeo got home, he sent a WhatsApp message to Rose updating her on his whereabouts. Then, he found a message from David:

[David]: I want to hire the most famous screenwriter in the country to tailor a new series for you, one that’s guaranteed to be a hit.

I also want to hire the best international dance team to choreograph a new dance for you, one that can dominate the dance scene.

I also want to hire the best music team to produce a new song for you.

David quickly sent a few question marks back and added:

[David]: Unsolicited favors often signal ill-intent! I’m telling you now, I won’t do anything shady!

Romeo replied:

[Romeo]: The new series, if you accept, will have a pay of 30 million dollars. There’s not much dialogue. All you have to do is maintain a cool demeanor.

In other words, just look good and keep a cool face.

David seemed tempted.

[David]: What do you want from me?

Before Romeo could answer, David added:

[David]: I’ve declined all party invitations. I’m going home for Christmas to be with my sister! Don’t think about taking her away!

There was no room for discussion on this matter! End of story!

[Romeo]: Just need to ask you something.

David was even more surprised.

[David]: What is it?

[Romeo]: Does Clark have a girlfriend?

[David]: When did you start caring about Clark’s personal life?

David was surprised, but then understood.

[David]: Oh, I get it. Clark always interferes with your dates, so you want to find him a girlfriend? Don’t bother. Clark’s heart is already dead.

[Romeo]: What do you mean?

[David]: Clark had a secret girlfriend a long time ago. Suddenly, one day, she broke up with him and vanished! Clark searched for her for a whole year but found nothing!

Clark was Astronisia’s top hacker, and there was no one he couldn’t find! But that girl seemed to have evaporated. No matter how hard Clark searched, there was no trace of her!

[Romeo]: Send me her information.

Seeing Romeo’s request, David was shocked.

[David]: You want to help Clark find her? Even Clark couldn’t find her. How could you?

[Romeo]: I’ll have Shadow Council and Group S look for her.

David’s eyes widened. Even the Shadow Council was getting involved.

The Shadow Council, as the name suggested, consisted of shadows that Romeo maintained in the dark. It was said that there was no person this organization couldn’t find.

This group used to collect all kinds of evidence to help Romeo solidify his position.
