Chapter 1199
Felix waited until midnight, and sure enough, Jacob was taken away by his superiors, and it was a high-level operation, only obeying the orders of the highest level, and the rest had no right to ask, let alone find out where Jacob was taken.
Felix felt like it was over this time. He slumped in his chair, praying that Jacob’s mouth would be tighter. Otherwise, all the things he did will be exposed, and there will be only one way to go, ruining his reputation.
People are like this, the higher you stand, the harder you fall.
Seeing that the lights in Felix’s room were on all night, Marina unscrewed the door and went in.
“Did something happen to Jacob?”
Marina has a hunch. This is what Felix does every time something big happens.
Felix was sitting on a chair, smoking a cigar, and the ashtray in front of him was full of ash.
“If Jacob is recruited, the family will be over.” Felix took a puff of his cigar, his cloudy eyes were full of exhaustion: “No matter how many things I have done for the masses, as long as there is a stain on my body, it will never be washed away..People will only remember the stain on you, not what you did for them.”
Marina walked over and sat down. They have been husband

and wife for decades, and she never thought about letting Felix have an accident, but she was pushed by fate, step by step, and came to where she is today.
“Felix, what do you think of us going back to our hometown?” Marina suddenly realized: “If we stay in Washington DC, something will happen sooner or later. Although we didn’t live well in the past, everyone respected you. Life is simple and people are respectful. Have a good time.”
Felix looked at Marina. The two of them have been in
Washington DC for only two years, and they have already lost. their original intentions.
From the beginning, Felix wanted to give Marina a good life, to continue his career and do more things in Washington DC.
But the current development is completely contrary to the original.
“Aren’t you going to close the Lindsay case?”
Everything starts with this one.
Marina was silent for a while, and said, “No.”
Marina felt a sense of relief.
It’s not that she doesn’t want to reverse the case, but after having a son, her focus has shifted, coupled with the reality, she has no choice but to give up.
Marina said: “Damien’s mind is calm, we can’t fight it. We take the children back to the countryside and live the rest of our lives well, that’s enough.”
During this time, Felix hid the child, and Marina was worried. Now that she proposes to go back to her hometown together, she just wants to find her son.
Felix knew what Marina was thinking, he also wanted to go back to the countryside, but…
“I can’t go back.” Felix smiled wryly: “Marina, in this lifetime, one cannot do wrong things. Once you make a mistake, you will have to pay the price.”
Marina’s heart sank, and she said: “Felix, don’t think so. Jacob won’t betray you, maybe there will be a turnaround. You apply to be transferred back to the country, and we can still live the old life. I was confused before, so I’m sorry about your business, let’s go back and live a good life.”
