Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 1939

"No, I need to see her now!" Jonathan’s voice was hoarse, struggling to keep his emotions in check.

He turned to face Sylvia, "Lambert's discussing a new energy development partnership with Zion and Raiden, right?"

Sylvia nodded, "That seems to be the case."

Jonathan beckoned his assistant, Mike, and instructed him, "Triceratops has been waiting on my word. Tell him I'm also very interested in Raiden's new energy project. I'll head over to Zion this afternoon!"

Mike responded immediately, "Yes, I’ll get in touch with Triceratops right away!"

Raiden soon received a call from Triceratops, instructing him to prepare for a visit from Alvis.

Raiden felt there was something fishy. "Is Alvis really coming for the new energy?"

The show of force earlier didn’t quite add up.

"We might have ticked him off with our dealings with the Brennan family. He’s probably coming to throw his weight around. Once he arrives, we can test the waters to see where he stands," Triceratops said, his voice tense and breathless after just a few words.

"Look, the Brennan family aren’t to be trifled with either. If Alvis is willing, we could all work together!" Raiden suggested.

"Just make sure you don’t ruffle his feathers. If you upset the balance and get the Mystoria Federation and Gab to join forces against us, we’ll be sitting ducks," Triceratops warned in a serious tone, fighting for breath.

"I know what to do. Please take care of yourself," Raiden reassured him.

"Yeah," Triceratops managed to reply before hanging up.

Raiden set down his phone, his eyes reflecting a cold determination. He couldn't fathom why the usually neutral Federation was suddenly sticking their nose in, throwing his plans into disarray. With Lambert already a wildcard and now Alvis stepping in, Zion was about to become a whole lot more interesting.

Raiden let out a derisive chuckle and dialed Winston, "Alvis is coming to Zion. Get ready for his arrival. Also, give Mr. Brennan a heads-up. There might be changes to our arrangement."

Winston, a bit startled, quickly responded, "Understood!"

Lambert, after receiving Winston’s call, returned to the villa to find Estelle. "Get ready, Raiden is hosting a dinner tonight and we’re both invited!"

Estelle cracked a cold joke, "Is it to celebrate my narrow escape from his clutches?"

Lambert's piercing eyes fixed on Estelle as he smirked, "Don’t flatter yourself. We’re expecting an important guest."
