If I recall correctly, there was no other mention of her outside of this one in the R1 novels. I havn't read the R2 novels, maybe something is there.

Anyway, Gino was 14, a kid, when this happened. Even if he's been raised as an aristocrat, I have no expectation that he could manipulate public opinion, let alone against his father, who sounds like a very powerful noble and businessman from the novels and Oz manga. You're right that when he became a Round he had the power/authority to either search for the girl or do something about his father. I can only offer my own thoughts on the matter. Maybe after a few years in the military her leaving had become less of an emotional blow to him, I mean, it was only a crush. What happened to her was horrible to us, but Britannia is a xenophobic to its core. What court would hold Earl Weinberg accountable? Maybe Gino was too busy as a Round. Maybe he thought she was dead by then. Maybe Gino isn't as noble as he appears to be.

There could be any number of reasons, but it could just be that this only happened in the LN verse and not the canon verse. The Oz manga suggested that they had at least a working relationship. Maybe they had buried the hatchet.
