Ralph Myers knew Rae Bennett, the moon of Gregner.
He had just taken out his phone when the ringtone sounded, it was a number he hadn't saved but recognized.
He answered the call.
"Whatever Lance Lockett demands, fulfill them all," the other end said.
"Lockett wants you as a hostage."
Wyatt Wright didn't hesitate for a second, "Agree to it."
Fifty minutes earlier.
Wyatt Wright had met Angus in the Gregrock airport VIP Lounge.
Wyatt Wright explained his purpose for visiting.
Angus was surprised, "A ring?"
"Yes."
Coming with a ruby to custom-design a ring, the romantic Angus could only think of one possibility.
"Wyatt, are you proposing?" Angus couldn't believe it, "Aren't you an advocate for bachelorhood?"
Wyatt Wright's mentor Noah Cook, whom he had met during his studies in Inders, was good friends with Angus. Noah's daughter, Annie, had fallen in love with Wyatt Wright at first sight and had been pursuing him for years.
