HIS REGRET (Ex-Husband wants Me Back) novel Chapter 901

Chris silently watched everything unfolding from the corner of the room. He recognized some of the faces present, but this was the first time he had ever seen them all gathered together in one closed room.

Not a single person questioned why they had suddenly been summoned to Black Tower, and no one asked for an explanation of the urgency of the situation. The moment Cale's emergency summons was issued, they came here immediately.

Standing beside Chris, Brandon observed the same scene with a serious expression, one tinged with admiration as well.

"This..." Chris murmured quietly, feeling a slight chill at the overwhelming aura of authority filling the room.

"This is only a small fraction of our strength, Mr. Chris," Vincent replied. "The people who came today are the first ring. They hold the positions closest to the Master."

Chris looked once again at the people who had just filled the conference room.

Now he truly understood something that had escaped his notice all this time: the Obsidian Circle's network was far larger, stronger, and more organized than he had ever imagined.

And every person now gathered in that conference room shared a single commitment: to move under Cale's command and bring Lydia and Naomi home safely.

Especially Naomi. Because many of these people were also members of the Devereux family, loyal and fully aware of who Naomi was.

"Thank you for coming on such short notice," Cale said with a slow exhale.

No one answered. They simply waited for Cale Miller's next instruction.

"The latest report?" Cale asked evenly.

Leon stepped forward first, breaking the silence. He placed a thick black folder on the table before laying out several photographs from his team's rapid investigation.

"We've swept every route leading out of Carrington Bay over the past two hours," Leon reported methodically. "The international airport, the domestic port, the main railway station, and even the manifests for private cargo routes."

He slid several high-resolution satellite photographs to the center of the table so everyone could examine them. "As of this moment, there are no signs of suspicious movement indicating that either Lydia or Naomi has been taken out of the area."
