Chapter 343: Ethan took the tablet and glanced at the posts. His face remained expressionless. Neville couldn't tell if the outchad met his expectations.

I've already contacted the Ward family, but they're refusing to return it. They claim it belongs to them. Our team in Norview tried negotiating with them several times, but they got thrown out and even beaten up by the Ward family. The Wards warned us that if we keep pushing, we're asking for trouble." Ethan's expression darkened. The shipment contained several tons of rare minerals vital to their operations. The materials were nearly impossible to source locally. He had spent years arranging for that cargo overseas. Now, before it even cleared the port, the Ward family had snatched it.
Ethan said, "This won't stand. That shipment is too important. Booka flight to Norview. I'll deal with this personally." "Understood. I'll book it now and go with you tomorrow morning." Neville looked at Ethan, waiting for his response. This trip was dangerous. The Ward family held serious sway in Norview. Their power made them nearly untouchable there.
He added, "I'll also have our bodyguards ready. We'll head there together." Neville paused for a moment, images of past encounters with the Ward family flickering in his mind. The Ward family members were ruthless and had strong ties in both military and political circles. Reclaiming the shipment wouldn't be easy.
After a moment's hesitation, he asked, “Should we ask Miss Hewitt for help?" Ethan frowned. "Only if we've got no other option. She's like a leech, impossible to shake off. I don't want to owe her any favors. The Hewitts might be powerful, but we're not weak." Neville nodded in resignation. He knew how stubborn Ethan could be. The man never wavered, except when it cto Brenna. With her, he always seemed more patient.
Neville said, "Alright. I'll get everything ready." Ethan acknowledged with a nod, then reached for his phone to call Brenna.
