Bernard turned around and gently patted Eleanor on the head, saying, "No worries, go grab some food in the dining hall. I'll go find Caleb."
Eleanor mistakenly thought there was some business Bernard had to handle, so she obediently nodded, "Okay, I'll go ahead then."
Bernard responded, and after watching Eleanor leave, he tapped lightly on the ship's window, prompting Caleb to come in.
"Mr. Laurence, what do you need?"
"Robin has been searching for Emilia. Send someone to find out why he's looking for her."
Robin's mother, Wendy Pine, is Vanya's sister, which makes Robin a cousin of Emilia and Eleanor.
Robin has been tirelessly looking for Emilia. He must know she's his cousin, and he must also know how the Pine family treated Vanya and her two daughters.
Knowing all this, and yet, years later, he's still actively searching for Emilia. He definitely has some sort of ulterior motive.
He didn't believe that the Spencer family was trying to reconnect with their family.
If it was about family, they wouldn't have sent people to kill Emilia and Eleanor.
Therefore, he needed to figure out Robin's true intentions for finding Emilia.
Because Emilia was already dead. Now, only Eleanor was left.
If they're trying to use Vanya's daughter for something, then Eleanor was in danger.
Even though he’d wiped out all the information about Eleanor, making it hard for Robin to find her, it doesn't mean he won't ever find her.
To prevent any accidents, he needs to figure out their intentions and plan accordingly.
One thing, though, that confused Bernard...
Back then, Vanya went for help with both Emilia and Eleanor.
Normally, the Pine and Spencer families should know about Eleanor's existence.
But Robin was only looking for Emilia, not Eleanor.
Could it be that the Pine and Spencer families think Eleanor has gone missing, so they stopped looking for her?
But if they want to use Vanya's daughters, they should look for both of them.
After thinking for a bit, Bernard concluded that the Spencer family was not looking for Eleanor for one reason:
The Pine and Spencer families must think Eleanor is dead.
"Thirty years ago, many businesses rose rapidly in a short period of time. There are too many of these businesses to determine any specific ones."
Bernard nodded without responding. His eyes were as cold as ice, scanning over the list of companies as his finger swiped across the screen.
When he read "VitaLife Global" at the top of the third page, Bernard's expression paused slightly.
"Isn't the Ratliff Group a prestigious family? Why are they on this list?"
"Mr. Laurence, if you've never paid attention to VitaLife Global, you might not know the Ratliff Group had a period of decline thirty years ago."
Caleb stepped forward and explained, "At that time, the Ratliff Group was in really bad shape. Without a massive injection of funds, it would have been impossible for them to rebound."
"That's probably why the Siren Organization included the Ratliff Group in the list."
The Ratliff Group rebounded because of a massive injection of funds.
And Vanya brought a huge inheritance when she got married...
Sophie Ratliff and Eleanor did have some similarities.
This can't be just a coincidence, can it?
