A Widow's Poison, A Wife's Rebellion novel Chapter 1001

Right now, he genuinely felt the urge to hit someone, as if he were dealing with an unruly, disobedient child.

But the thought of his severely fractured relationship with Starla only fueled Yardley's burning frustration. This wasn't just a matter of venting his anger anymore... It was about figuring out how to get her back.

Hearing him, Garret hesitated for a moment. "We can't find her anywhere right now. She isn't in Cyrus Sea."

Yardley's jaw clenched.

Knowing she was untraceable made his blood boil. In all these years, his people had never encountered an assignment this difficult. Whenever he wanted information or a specific person, it was delivered to him instantly.

But now? When it came to his own flesh-and-blood sister, he was completely at a loss. Was she simply too brilliant, or...?

Yardley closed his eyes in pure exasperation.

"Fairfax must have arranged everything for her before he died," Garret suggested.

Garret knew exactly how sharp Starla was. But when it came to Fairfax... blaming him made sense. After all, Amos had been shielding Starla the entire time. Yet, Fairfax's attitude remained baffling. Back during the chaos in Marina City, he had looked absolutely desperate to shake Starla off. Who would have guessed that right before his death, he had secretly secured an airtight escape route for her?

"And now she actually trusts Fairfax!" Yardley snapped, his tone thick with bitter resentment.

Catching the dark shift in his boss's mood, Garret wisely chose to stay quiet. It was an undeniable truth—Starla absolutely trusted Fairfax now. After all, she was actively helping Amos fight the Hoggart family.

Reba spoke up from the side. "Miss is currently being protected by Romy and Seymour. Finding her won't be easy."

Romy and Seymour!

They used to be Amos's most capable subordinates. When Fairfax returned to Cyrus Sea, they were transferred to him. Yet, Fairfax had specifically assigned them to guard Starla. There was no denying it—with those two elite operatives watching her back, the difficulty of tracking her down had skyrocketed.
