When Lyra ended the call, another phone rang.
“Alex,” an elderly man’s voice came through, warm but formal.
“You promised you’d come check on our health. When will I have that honor?”
Alex leaned back. “Well, I can come right now—if you know where to find me and send someone to pick me up.”
“Of course! How could I not know where the God’s Hand doctor is? We’ve been waiting patiently for our turn to be honored by your visit.”
“I’ll send my people for you immediately. Will that be acceptable?”
Alex glanced at Josephine, a sly smile forming. “Fine—but I’ll be bringing a young woman with me. Is that alright?”
“Certainly, certainly. Bring anyone you like. We will treat them with the same highest hospitality we give you.”
“No need for special treatment. Just treat her like usual,” Alex chuckled, then hung up.
He turned to Josephine. “Pack your clothes. We’re going to Vinland.”
Josephine’s eyes widened.
“Vinland State? That’s the most beautiful place in the country! Lakes, forests, everything untouched. It’s been my dream to see it!”
“Yeah, but this isn’t a vacation. We’re going to check on an elderly couple.”
“Something serious?”
“No. Just a regular check-up.”
A few minutes later, a long, black limousine rolled up to the curb.
Josephine froze, eyes wide. “I’ve never even touched a car like this, let alone ridden in one. You think I’m not gonna mess it up just by sitting in it?”
Alex smirked. “Relax. They’ve already paid for it—just enjoy the ride. You could probably scratch the seats and they wouldn’t even blink.”
Inside, Josephine couldn’t stop herself from touching everything.
Her fingers traced the polished wood, the soft leather. Her eyes darted from detail to detail, drinking it all in. It felt like stepping into another world.
Alex took the chance to make a call.
“Yes, Sir Alex,” Alfred Kingston answered with deep respect.
“Alfred, is Jasmine—your daughter—alright?”
“I haven’t spoken to her for a couple of days. Work’s kept me busy. Is there a problem, Sir?”
Alex’s eyes drifted to the passing scenery outside the tinted window.
“She called me two days ago, wanted to meet. But I haven’t heard from her since. Can you check on her for me?”
“Yes, sir. I’ll find her and report back to you.”
“Thank you, Alfred.”
“My pleasure, sir.”
Of all the governors and allies Alex knew, Alfred was perhaps the most loyal.
When they reached the airport, Josephine’s jaw dropped.
“A private jet?” She clutched Alex’s arm. “Alex… are we even allowed to use something like this? It looks so expensive.”
“Relax. Our patient is very rich,” Alex said casually, as if this kind of travel was nothing new.
Josephine moved like a nervous mouse stepping into a five-star restaurant for the first time.
The stewardesses greeted them with practiced elegance, making Josephine smile shyly and fidget in her seat. She clearly felt she didn’t belong in such luxury.
When they settled in, the jet began to taxi and lift into the sky. Josephine leaned toward Alex and whispered, eyes fixed on the attendants.
