My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 1158

I paused and said, "Naomi, be careful when you go out. I met Westin yesterday. He said that Kaleb is here, and we may not be safe!"

"Hmm?" she said in surprise, "Why has Kaleb come to Zuckerburg? My grandfather said that the police in Asherton and Myanway have been working together to arrest him. I thought that he must be hiding in a mountain at the border. How could he be in Asherton!"

What? Shocked and a little confused, I clarified, "Do you mean to say that Kaleb escaped?"

She hummed an agreement. "I was going to tell you about it. After we came back from Europe, I told my grandpa about what happened. So grandpa contacted the police in Asherton and Myanway to arrest Kaleb. He has done a lot of bad things for so many years. There are a lot of people who want to mess with him. I guess his good days will come to an end."

I could roughly imagine why Westin was a little embarrassed when I saw him. Although they came here, it was not so easy for them to escape.

After hanging up the phone with Naomi, I went straight into Milton Group.

In Sebastian's office.

I raised my hand and knocked on the door, and a voice called out. "Come in!"

I pushed the door open and went in. I saw Sebastian reading some documents. He frowned and looked up at me when he heard me come in. When he saw it was me, he paused in his work and said, "Didn't you say you would rest for a few days? Why are you here?"

I found a place to sit down and said, "Lancille Village's project is almost complete. We just need to make some final checks. Since it will be Thanksgiving Day soon, I want to ask for a few days' leave to go back to Jarold City.

He stopped what he was doing and nodded. "Fine, it just so happens that I'm planning to go back too. However, you'll have to check that there are no outstanding issues with our third party. If necessary, call the Roberts Group's people and see if there's anything else to settle. I'm worried that the higher-ups will do a spot check. If there's anything wrong, it'll be too late for us to make changes. If you can confirm that there's nothing wrong, it'll be easier to explain even if something comes up during the check.

I nodded. We were worried about security problems, especially with the holiday coming soon. If an accident happened during the holiday, then this project would be in trouble again. If we went over it in advance, it would be easier to settle even if something went wrong!

"Okay, I'll inform the Roberts Group and the third party to go to Lancille Village tomorrow and check on the project again." After a pause, I said, "By the way, will you return to the capital on Thanksgiving Day?"

He leaned back and nodded. "Of course, I have to go back. By the way, when you go back to Jarold City, you should fulfill your promise and give the sandalwood box to me."

I nodded. When I was in Myanway, I promised that I would repay him for saving my life as long as he could bring all of us back to Zuckerburg. Because of my work recently, I have yet to give him the sandalwood box.

Thinking back to Westin, I paused and said, "Be careful when you go out. Kaleb might be in Asherton, and he seems desperate. I'm afraid that he will take revenge!"

His hand, which was turning the pen, paused slightly. His dark eyes fell on me, and he raised his eyebrows. "How did you know that Kaleb had come to Asherton?"
