After returning to his room, First didn’t rest. Instead, he headed straight to his computer, sat down, and turned it on.
His expression was focused, filled with an unprecedented seriousness and worry.
However, after a series of operations, First stopped and stared at the screen.
His dark eyes were filled with a complex mix of emotions.
Just then, there was a knock at the door.
First instinctively hid the interface and looked toward the door. “Who is it?”
“It’s me,” Second’s voice came from outside.
Hearing it was him, First relaxed a bit and went to open the door.
“Not resting?” First asked, looking at him.
“Do you think I can sleep?” Second replied, glancing inside and noticing the computer was on. He had a pretty good idea
of what was going on.
“Did you find anything?” Second asked.
First lowered his gaze, saying nothing, and after opening the door, he turned and walked back inside.
Watching his retreating figure, Second entered and casually closed the door behind him.
Seeing First sit back down in front of the computer, Second spoke up, “What’s going on?”
Knowing he couldn’t hide anything from Second, First didn’t bother trying. Looking at the computer screen, he said, “I put
in some effort, but all I could determine is that Xi’s sister’s address isn’t in the country.”

Second walked over, looking at the location displayed on the screen, his brow furrowing. “It seems Scarlett had a plan
when she left. She really thought this through before leaving!”
“But even so, we don’t need to guess where she’s headed!” First said, his voice tinged with anger.
“Yeah, we all know, but do we know the exact address?” Second countered. “Scarlett knew we’d eventually figure out she
wasn’t on a business trip, and she knew you’d track where she went. She did this because she doesn’t want us to find
her!”
First’s eyes were slightly red. “How could Scarlett do this? She knows we’ll be worried!”
“Grandfather’s issue has always been a knot in Scarlett’s heart. Without resolving it, she can’t truly be happy. Isn’t it the
same for us? She’s chasing the truth about her parents‘ deaths, and we’re worried about our own parents!” Second said
with a bitter smile. “The most important thing is, we can’t ask Scarlett to just let it go. Put yourself in her shoes–could we
let it go if it were us?”
They might not fully grasp a parent’s love for their child, but as children themselves, they understood all too well Scarlett
Adler’s heart and her determination to uncover the truth for her parents.
First understood these principles well, but at this moment, he couldn’t apply them to others. All he wanted was Scarlett
Adler’s safety.
“Yes, we have no right to persuade Scarlett to let go, but I can accompany her through it. I’m going to find Scarlett,” First
suddenly declared.
“How will you go? Do you know the address?”
“Even if I have to search the entire Middle East, I’ll do it. At worst, I’ll wait at the entrance of Red Mark Base until Scarlett
comes out!” First insisted.
Second lowered his gaze, “Though it’s the least strategic plan, it’s the most practical. When are you going?” he asked
directly.
First was taken aback, looking up at him, “You’re not going to stop me?”
“Could I even stop you?” Second replied, “Besides, my mood isn’t much better than yours right now. What you want to do
<Chapter 374 Either act separately or go together.
is also what I want to do.”
“Second!” First looked at him.

“I’m not stopping you from this, and likewise, don’t try to persuade me otherwise!” Second interrupted him, his gaze
equally serious, “Bro, she’s not just your Scarlett.”
“She’s the closest person to all three of us. I feel the same way you do,” First said.
“But…”
“There are only two options here,” Second replied, looking at First intently. “One, you can choose to say nothing, and we
can each go our separate ways. Or two, we stick together! No matter what you choose, I won’t say a word against it.”
First stared at him, falling silent. He knew Second meant what he said and would follow through.
Among the three of them, Second was always the one with the most ideas.
After a moment of thought, First said, “We should think about how to explain this to Great–Grandfather and Grandfather.
And what about Fourth? If we keep this from her, she’ll definitely be upset when she finds out!”
“Fourth is heading back to the set tomorrow for filming, so we can keep it from her for now. As for her getting upset,
that’s something we’ll deal with later. If she finds out, she’ll definitely want to join us. I’d rather she be mad at us for a
while. As for Great–Grandfather and Grandfather, we’ll just say… Tara Green wants to take us out for a few days,” Second
suggested slowly.
First glanced at Second, a hint of surprise in his eyes. “You’ve already thought it all through…”
Second stayed silent.
“I’m just not sure if Great–Grandfather and Grandfather will agree!” First said.
“They might be reluctant, but they’ll eventually come around. If worse comes to worst, we can act first and explain later,” Second replied.
First looked at him. He had to admit, Second was naturally rebellious, always having his own ideas and never living by others‘ plans.
<Chapter 374 Either act separately or go together.
But right now, Second’s suggestion seemed like the only option.
First nodded, “We need to arrange this properly. Let me think it over.”
“Alright, when do you plan to leave?” Second asked.
