Chapter 1238: Chapter 626: Indirect Strategy, Beautiful Girl Delivered to the Door?

Leaving the airport, Sean Knight and his group took a car sent by the Five-Star Hotel.

Upon arriving at the hotel, Mr. Sean Knight went straight to his Suite Room to rest.

However, he hadn’t been resting for long when a phone call woke him up.

It was a phone call from Mr. Henija.

Mr. Sean Knight guessed it was still about the staff, and he answered the call.

"Mr. Henija, hello."

"Mr. Knight, hello," Mr. Henija was very polite on the other end, "I’ve heard there was an unfortunate incident in Egypt. A large quantity of man-eating beetles appeared at a ruin site, are you all safe?"

Huh?

Mr. Sean Knight was slightly surprised. So, this time Mr. Henija was calling under the pretense of concern.

However, one could tell that the concern from the other party was genuine.

Laughing, he said:

"It’s all right, it’s all right, we are already in Malaysia now. Everyone is safe, thank you."

To be honest, Mr. Sean Knight often traveled all around the world, and besides occasional phone calls from his family and some close girlfriends who inquired about his well-being, there were basically no others who would be concerned about his safety.

Now that Mr. Henija had called, he found it quite pleasant.

"It’s good that nothing happened," Mr. Henija clearly breathed a sigh of relief, "Mr. Knight, there’s a war going on in the Middle East, and the world is not entirely peaceful; I think it would be better for you to stay in safe places. Malaysia is quite good..."

"Hmm," Mr. Sean Knight thought there was no need for further pleasantries and directly said, "I’ve already taken care of the matter with the staff. I’ve found the people, and I’ve found the staff. The staff is with me now. But I will need some time before I can return to Afghanistan."

"Really?" Mr. Henija said with surprise, "That’s great..."

He paused for a moment before continuing:

"Here’s the situation. If you are going to mine in the territory of the Hassan Tribe, we have no problem with that. Elder Hassan has already told us that they need to hold shares in the mining venture, and we agree with this point.

We will just follow the normal procedures for approval. As for the staff, if you are going to stay in Malaysia for a long time, can we send someone to retrieve it?"

"Sure," Mr. Sean Knight thought that would be perfect, as he had also planned to go to Big Island after finishing his business here.

"That’s excellent. I will contact the elder of that religious sect right away and have him send people to collect it."

After hanging up the phone, Mr. Sean Knight thought he could now get some good rest.

Yet, things didn’t always go as one wishes, and soon another phone call came through—this one directed to the Suite Room’s landline phone.

"Hello, is this Mr. Sean Knight?" The person on the other end spoke in Mandarin, but it sounded a bit strange. It was the voice of a foreigner who was quite fluent in Mandarin but had not lost that distinctive accent.

"That’s me, who is this?" Mr. Sean Knight was a bit cautious; they hadn’t informed anyone else of their arrival, and this person had gotten his room number so quickly, they could not be just anyone.

This hotel has a problem!

"Hello, I’m Qin Daifna. I’d like to discuss some matters with you, may I come up?"

"If you have something to say, just say it over the phone," Mr. Sean Knight replied upon hearing it, knowing it was the Davena family and having a hunch about their intentions.

It seemed that the Davena family, at least here in Malaysia, was more powerful than he had imagined—or could it be that this hotel belonged to them?

"Alright then," the other person was a woman; she said, "I know Mr. Knight has a batch of Afghan cultural relics on hand. I would like to buy these relics from you, is that okay?"

"I don’t know what you’re talking about," Mr. Sean Knight, taken aback, feigned ignorance.

"I believe Mr. Knight knows exactly what I’m talking about," the other party directly saw through Mr. Sean Knight’s pretense, "To be precise, it’s that staff. Although the way Mr. Knight obtained that staff was not very civilized, I am still willing to offer one million US dollars to take that staff back, would that be acceptable?"

"I don’t know what you’re talking about," Mr. Sean Knight repeated, "I think there’s nothing for us to discuss."

He then hung up the phone and sat up to dial Elijah Hastings:

"Notify the others; we’re leaving this hotel."

"Boss, what happened? Is there danger?" Elijah Hastings instantly became anxious.

"Our arrival here has been leaked," Mr. Sean Knight said, "Someone just called me, and the call came directly to my room."

"Understood, just wait for me!" Elijah Hastings hung up the mobile phone, and two minutes later, there was a knock on the door. Mr. Sean Knight used his ’sky eye’ to see Elijah Hastings and two team members outside. He went over and let them in.

"Let’s go," Mr. Sean Knight picked up his backpack, "we’ve been a bit complacent."

Arriving at the lobby, Mr. Sean Knight and his group immediately checked out, which surprised the lobby manager.

Mr. Sean Knight and his group had booked several VIP Rooms as well as the President’s Suite; these were VIP guests!

"Someone had a call put through directly to my room, and they specifically mentioned our information. This shows there is a problem with the leaking of guest information among your internal staff!" Elijah Hastings argued with the lobby manager, "We will be filing a complaint against your hotel!"

You might not be taken down, but you’ll definitely be disgusted!

Without giving the lobby manager time to react, Mr. Sean Knight and his group swiftly left the place, leaving Douglas Cooper behind to handle the procedures.

After rebooking another Five-Star Hotel, Mr. Sean Knight and the others checked in and this time it was much quieter.

However, that night, the group left the hotel, pretending to go out for food, and then stayed at another normal hotel.

"The influence of the Davena family in Kuala Lumpur seems to be much stronger than we expected," Mr. Sean Knight told the team members, who were either sitting or standing in the hotel room:
