Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 2680: Chapter 1924: Big News (Part 2)

In his opinion, this is already extremely fast.

Lin Weiwei, when Lei Ying was on the way to rescue Lorna, heard Bai Xiaosheng mention his agreement with Robert.

At this moment, hearing Robert say this, Lin Weiwei couldn’t help but murmur, ”Does it have to take that long.”

Robert glanced at Lin Weiwei, understanding that Bai Xiaosheng had informed her, so she wasn’t an outsider, and he could speak freely.

Robert smiled wryly, ”Miss Weiwei, this is already considered fast. After all, I was sent here by the family, and without sufficient reason, I can’t return, not even for a visit...”

While speaking, Robert glanced at Bai Xiaosheng, hoping he would understand and not think he was stalling.

Lin Weiwei felt she had misspoken and quickly apologized with a smile.

Bai Xiaosheng, however, smiled from the side and said, ”Perhaps, with today’s matter, I can help you, Mr. Robert.”

Upon hearing this, Robert was suddenly taken aback.

With today’s matter?

Help him return to his family?

How would that work...

Bai Xiaosheng smiled without saying much, just took out his phone, scrolled through to find a name, and dialed.

Everyone held their breath, waiting.

Once the call was connected, Bai Xiaosheng smiled at the other end, ”Mr. Anlos, it’s me, Bai Xiaosheng. I want to ask you for a favor...”

Anlos?!

Robert was startled.

That was the renowned business mogul of West Africa, what was Bai Xiaosheng doing contacting him?

Could it really be to help him?

Since there was no outsider in the car, Bai Xiaosheng directly communicated with Anlos over the phone.

The conversation left Robert and Lorna speechless.

Is this... even possible?

After speaking with Anlos, Bai Xiaosheng called Chief Hank, as cooperation from that side was also necessary.

Robert and Hannah listened in a daze, left speechless.

...

The next day, news spread in the media about the Eisenlag Central District Police Station’s large-scale mobilization to surround criminals and rescue innocent citizens.

Initially, one report claimed that the rescued was a poor girl with no background, her parents deceased, praising the Central District Police Station’s sense of responsibility.

Then, other reports followed up, digging deeper and discovering she wasn’t just an ordinary girl, but a girl with a criminal record.

This stirred public curiosity instantly.

How could such a problematic girl attract so much attention from the Central District Police Station? It was intriguing.

Finally, a media outlet broke a sensational report—

Rumor had it that the girl named ”Lorna” was actually related to the Anlos Family, possibly even the illegitimate daughter of a prominent figure!

This news caused a public uproar!

A female thief, illegitimate daughter of a prestigious family, kidnapping, are all compelling stories hard to ignore.

Under the relentless pursuit of the media, Chief Hank of the Eisenlag Central District Police Station held a press conference, declaring they would strive to rescue all Eisenlag citizens in danger.

Given the current security situation in Eisenlag, the Central District Police Station decided to launch a three-month crackdown in hopes that criminals would surrender soon.

At the same time, Chief Hank highly praised a local businessman—Mr. Robert for his contributions to the rescue.

When asked if the girl named Lorna was related to the famous Anlos Family, Chief Hank stated it was someone else’s privacy and declined to comment.

This ”no comment” on camera undoubtedly drove many in the media insane.

In such a news event, the media naturally focused on the involved individuals, namely the girl named Lorna, Robert, and the captured criminals.

However, even the media couldn’t find where ”Lorna” was, hinting her background was indeed extraordinary!

And during Robert’s interview, he only said he and Lorna were friends and that helping a friend was the right thing to do. He didn’t mention anything about Lorna’s background.

Left with no leads, the media had to focus on the criminals still in prison.

After going back and forth, journalists booked visitation appointments with the Honey Badger Gang members a month out...

And that day, some news rushed for the spotlight:

The Honey Badger Gang’s leader openly expressed regret, saying he thought Lorna was just Robert’s friend, unaware of her ties to the Anlos Family.

If he’d known, he’d never dare.

The others echoed similar sentiments.

As a result, some media reached out to the Anlos Family.

But when questioned, the spokesperson of the Anlos Family sternly declared that it was all nonsense, disowning any news and indicating they would hold some media accountable.

Such a serious rebuttal swiftly raised external perceptions of the story’s credibility.

One media outlet creatively conducted a poll, reportedly revealing that seventy-six percent of people believed the girl was indeed an illegitimate child of a prominent Anlos Family member...

In any case, within a day, the entire affair caused such a commotion that it even appeared on international media platforms.

When Lin Weiwei found this news on North American media, she immediately brought it to Bai Xiaosheng.

”Xiaosheng, you had Anlos help give Lorna a significant identity, but it all turned into an illegitimate daughter story. If she’s mistaken for Anlos’s illegitimate daughter, wouldn’t that ruin Mr. Anlos’s reputation,” Lin Weiwei said with a laugh.

To her, the matter was quite interesting.

Bai Xiaosheng, busy messaging someone on his phone, casually responded, ”What’s there to worry about, Mr. Anlos will handle it. Besides, I’ve already learned that our Mr. Anlos was quite a playboy in his youth, so I don’t think this would tarnish him.”
