Soon, Tawanna, who had calmed herself, returned to the party with Trevor.


    Mitsui Yoshitaka, still thinking about Charlie Wade’s request, walked directly to the stage and addressed all the guests. “Ladies and gentlemen, I justmunicated with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the US Embassy. It has been confirmed that the CIA’s request for Miss Sweet to visit the embassy for an investigation was entirely a misunderstanding. They realized the mistake quickly and sent Miss Sweet and Mr. Kennedy back without dy. Since this incident was purely a misunderstanding, I sincerely ask everyone here not to share anything about it outside this event. This will prevent those who are uninformed or the media chasing rumors from discussing and spreading baseless spection.”


    He paused for a moment, then continued in a firmer tone. “Let me emphasize that everything that happened today must remain strictly confidential. If any information is leaked, I promise, on the honor of the Mitsui family, to track down the source and hold them fully ountable. I hope you all understand the seriousness of this matter. Thank you.”


    In Japan, Mitsui Yoshitaka held immense influence. Politicians, wealthy businessmen, and even foreign enterprises operating in Japan made every effort to avoid offending him or the Mitsui family. The status of the Mitsui family in Japan was even more prominent than that of Samsung in South Korea.


    The guests, driven by both respect and caution, agreed and vowed to keep the night’s events private. Tawanna’s safe and timely return also reassured them. Considering the short time she was gone, it was clear she couldn’t have gone to the embassy and returned, reinforcing Mitsui Yoshitaka’s exnation. As a result, curiosity among the guests diminished, and the mood became more rxed.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Since it seemed to be nothing more than a minor misunderstanding, and Mitsui Yoshitaka had personally addressed it, the matter was quickly put to rest. Feeling relieved, Mitsui Yoshitaka allowed the party to resume as normal.<fn7601> Th? link to the orig?n of this information r?sts ?n find(?)ovel</fn7601>


    Meanwhile, Charlie Wade made a conscious effort to keep his distance from both Tawanna and Mitsui Yoshitaka. He avoided interacting with them or even making eye contact to ensure ire wouldn’t suspect anything. Tawanna, however, couldn’t resist stealing nces at Charlie Wade. Yet, as she realized he was entirely ignoring her, she eventually stopped trying.


    Sanjing Xinmei, on the other hand, found herself intrigued by Charlie Wade and observed him quietly throughout the evening.
