Chapter 530: Chapter 362: Becoming the Target of Public Criticism

When Sean Knight left, he had Kathy donate 100,000 dollars to the police station in the area.

It was ostensibly for patrol expenses, but in reality, how the money was spent was not their concern.

Their only goal was to hope it strengthened the nearby patrols.

The police station also knew that Sean’s group had bought a lot of gold, so they readily agreed.

"In case of an emergency, you all stay inside the house and do not come out," Sean instructed Kathy and the workers.

Before leaving, Sean also had the workers change the interior doors of the villa, ensuring that Kathy and the others could not leave, and the doors would not be opened during a short-term attack from the outside.

After completing all of this, Sean and his group boarded an airplane to Jakarta.

"You really don’t care about your island, do you?" At the airport, Oliver Brooks picked them up and while driving them to his small courtyard, laughed and said, "It’s been a while since I’ve seen you, and you seem to have gotten darker?"

"I’m still lighter than you," Sean retorted, "I was originally able to get a bit whiter at home, but being here, my race is about to change."

They laughed and talked along the way, finally arriving at the small courtyard.

Sean noticed that the exterior of the courtyard had not changed much, but the interior had changed a lot.

With a table full of food, the cook warmly welcomed Sean and the others.

Compared to the last time, the cook seemed to be more cheerful, and Sean noticed something immediately:

"Mr. Brooks, congrats! How many months has your wife been pregnant? When is the baby due?"

"Your eyes are sharp!" Oliver Brooks laughed and patted Sean’s back, "Four months, it’s still early. Don’t worry, we will definitely notify you, a big red envelope is unavoidable."

"Of course." Sean was genuinely happy for Oliver Brooks. Having met up with Sean as a last-ditch effort, Oliver Brooks had almost lost his will to live.

Now Oliver has returned to normal with a wife and has a child on the way, living a happy life.

How great!

Having participated in such an event and having contributed significantly, Sean naturally felt some pride.

Meanwhile, in the Beautiful Country, the Brown family.

"Are you sure you can handle Sean Knight?" The living room of the Brown family’s villa was similar to an ancient Chinese hall, with several centuries-old chairs on both sides, occupied by the current householder, Justin Brown.

Of the six people seated, five were men, and Lana Brown, sitting at the edge, was the only woman.

The one asking the questions was an elder of the Brown family, Thomas Brown, and Lana’s uncle.

Lana’s father died in a conflict while working for the family in his early years, and afterwards, Lana and her mother fell into poverty.

Fortunately, due to her beauty, the current householder discovered her and began supporting her, hoping that at a critical moment, she could be put to use.

Lana seized this opportunity and worked hard to enrich herself. Being naturally smart and studious, she gradually gained recognition from others for her abilities, breaking free from a fate of using her beauty as a weapon to seduce others.

"No problem," Lana knew that even if she had gotten most things in order for this operation, there would be people in her family wanting to take credit, so she confidently said, "Trust me."

"As long as you’ve done the preliminary work, the family will remember your contribution," Thomas Brown was not planning to give up, wanting to push his son Leroy Brown into power, so he said:

"The main task now is the salvage operation and with the strong winds and waves at sea, it’s not good for a beautiful girl like you to go."

"No, no, no." Lana Brown shook her head: "Uncle Tiger, I have to follow this matter. If I don’t go with that Sean Knight, he probably won’t recognize anyone else. If a change of personnel ruins the operation, it will be detrimental to the family’s interests."

Although Lana spoke about the interests of the family, those present certainly detected her hidden implications.

However, besides Thomas Brown, the others were not very enthusiastic about the matter because this was not their first time salvaging. There hadn’t been a good outcome in the past few decades, so this time, with the exception of Thomas, others were not eager.

Tribe Leader Justin Brown said:

"Since Lana has started this, she should follow it. Tiger, she knows your good intentions."

With the tribe leader speaking, Thomas Brown could not say more and had to close his mouth.

"Lana, since you are sure that you can handle it, just follow it carefully. If you make any mistakes, it will be hard to get such an opportunity in the future. Don’t blame us old fellows for not making things clear beforehand."

Lana nodded.

She knew this was her only chance.

The chance to take control of her destiny!

Despite it being the present era, the Brown family still operates under a patriarchal system, so if Lana can’t demonstrate her value in the business sector, she will be sent away as a bargaining chip for the family!

Meanwhile, in another courtyard, a group of people was studying a blueprint.

"The villa’s residential rooms are not important, but we should focus on the other rooms, especially the basement—recently we heard that the room’s basement has been reinforced, so the gold could be hidden there!"

"In addition, try not to harm anyone! As long as people don’t come out, we shouldn’t target anyone. Unless we can’t find the gold in which case we should focus on that—our goal is to get rich, not to be wanted!"

"The brothers under surveillance must be vigilant and focus on the vehicles entering and leaving. Gold is very heavy and if it’s transported out, the car tires will react accordingly..."
