Chapter 387 The Invitation

Payne froze when he heard the cold, lethal voice on the other end of the line.

This was the Stone family’s son-in-law?

Hadn't people said he was useless?

But even through the phone, the killing intent was so sharp it pricked his skin.

Doubt flickered through Payne’s mind, but he steadied his tone.

“Mr. Gunn? This is Payne. I've secured an invitation to the offshore auction. My son is already on his way to

Baron's eyes narrowed.

So Payne could get an invitation? Interesting. He was no ordinary man. And of course Payne could have found

other numbers-choosing him was deliberate, maybe a test.

Baron's mind moved fast.

“Borris, you've arrived like rain in a drought. I just got the snews, and | was tearing my hair out for lack of

an invitation. And here you are, handingone. Thank you. When Natalie

His tone softened, even warmed with a hint of relief.

Payne blinked.

Baron already knew Natalie was on that ship? He wasn’t just suseless son-in-law?

“Mr. Gunn, you already had this news?” Payne asked bluntly.

“Yes,” Baron replied smoothly. “Maybe you don’t know, but | was born to the Gunn family. Though they cast me

out years ago, my mother was the first wife. Sloyalties remain. And over the years, I've kept ties among all

kinds of people-ruffians, merchants, old contacts. Call in enough favors, and news comes. Though every favor

spent is one fewer left.”

Payne thought it over and nodded to himself.

Yes. Even a fallen Gunn carried weight. And his mother had indeed left behind a few loyalists.

Baron must have spent those last debts for Natalie.

It struck Payne then-this was true devotion. Baron was willing to burn his remaining ties just to save her. That

made him far more admirable than Jensen.

“Mr. Gunn, you and Ms. Stone are truly bound in deep love. My Zach family is humble, but we can lend some

support. My son will accompany you to the high seas. Please guide him.”

The words were modest, deferential.

Baron respected the gesture. He knew how rare it was for someone in office to meddle with such things-too

dangerous, too much to lose. Payne sending and an invitation showed true intent. Whatever the Zach

family’s reasons, Baron would remember.

“Borris, my thanks.”

“Go quickly,” Payne urged. “Saving her comes first. As for the children, I'll have people continue the search.”

The words eased sof Baron's burden.

“Good.”

This... was the so-called useless son-in-law?

He looked more like a commander.

“Mr. Gunn, shall we?”

Baron offered no explanation. This wasn’t the time. He accepted the invitation without fuss.

“Westin. Protect him.”

Baron climbed into the car headed for the airport.

At the order, Westin signaled, and men immediately closed ranks around Rio.
