"Oh, I see."
"Mr. John, where is Miss Sophia? I wonder if I can have the honor of meeting her."
"Our young lady is feeling unwell and is resting in her room. Please do not disturb her now."
"Rest? You were so energetic at the auction before, why are you feeling uncomfortable now?"
Hearing the impatience and danger in James's tone, Shen Yuan still answered with a normal expression.
"The sea is rough, and the young lady is used to a life of luxury. She's not used to the sea environment and is feeling a bit unwell. I'm in no hurry to hand you over so I can return quickly. The Earl has called several times to inquire about it, and he's already arranged for someone to come pick you up."
After hearing Chen Yuan say that the Earl had arranged for someone to come to the high seas to pick him up, James, although he did not show it on his face, temporarily rejected his original plan in his heart. After getting on the ship, James kept an eye on everything.
There were about twenty security guards on the ship, and each of them had a strong aura, comparable to that of regular army soldiers. Each of them was fully armed, with light weapons as well as many heavy weapons. After seeing them get on board, they showed their weapons to them without any hesitation. It was obvious that George really loved his daughter, otherwise he would not have made such arrangements.
Originally, James had planned to keep Sophia here to play for a few days so that he could take the opportunity to blackmail George, but after hearing what Shen Yuan said, he knew that someone had come to support him. He didn't know how many people had come, but even if they really started fighting, his men would have a hard time against these people on the boat, not counting those who came to support him. After thinking it over again and again, he gave up his previous plan.
"Oh, the sea is indeed quite rough. I understand why Miss Sophia is feeling uncomfortable."
After saying that, he whispered an order to the people around him, and the subordinates who received the order got off the boat directly.
Twenty minutes later, the cargo ship carrying the helicopter entered the island's port. After the cargo ship stopped, James said to Shen Yuan.
"Mr. John, the helicopter has arrived. You can inspect it."
Shen Yuan signaled the two people beside him with his eyes. After receiving Shen Yuan's signal, the two got off the boat and walked towards the cargo ship where the helicopter was parked.
Half an hour later, the two of them came back after a comprehensive inspection and nodded to Shen Yuan to indicate that everything was fine.
After Shen Yuan got the answer, he told the others to move the cash boxes from the warehouse.
"Mr. James, the helicopter is fine. I'll have someone bring the money over now. You can count it on the spot. Once everything is settled, we'll take the helicopter and return."
"No problem, Mr. John."
One hundred million US dollars in cash is really a lot. The densely packed cash boxes almost filled up the deck. James' eyes almost popped out when he saw so many cash boxes. He ordered his men to count them and he also counted them himself.
While James was counting the money, Shen Yuan immediately ordered his men to pick up the gasoline and refueling equipment that had been prepared to refuel the helicopter and transport them to the cargo ship. It would be best to fill up the helicopter's fuel before James finished counting.
The soldiers who received the order acted quickly. Shen Yuan stood on the deck and looked at James and the others.
An hour later, the soldier who had gone to refuel came back, and the tank was fully filled. Shen Yuanxin, who got the news, put down half of it.
After waiting for about ten minutes, Shen Yuan reminded him.
"Mr. James, I see you've almost finished counting. Is the money okay?"
"Hahaha, my dear Mr. John, no problem, I will arrange to move it off the ship right away so as not to delay your return."
"Thank you for your understanding. I'll ask the helicopter to take off now. Once you've finished moving, we'll be back."
"Oh ok, Mr. John, may God bless you and have a safe journey"
Shen Yuan ordered the pilot to return the helicopter immediately. The pilot who received the order immediately executed the order. Looking at the helicopter that successfully took off and flew away, Shen Yuan tried hard to suppress the excitement in his heart.
After all the cash boxes were moved, Shen Yuan said goodbye to James and ordered them to set sail back.
James watched the ship sail away and went further and further away without taking any action.
