Chapter 271
Cassandra didn’t look as disgusted as before. Instead, she looked peaceful and there was a hint of admiration in her eyes.
No matter how evil this person was and whether he had a hidden agenda, at this moment, at least, he chose his family and his nation. In this regard, he was admirable.
Cassandra took the gift from him. She didn’t know how to smile properly on such an occasion so she sighed and said expressionlessly, “Thank you. I hope you will soon have a truce and bring peace to the nation.”
It was a country with abundant resources and obviously a powerful developing country. However, due to internal turmoil, ordinary people were suffering while elites‘ lives stayed
the same.
Cassandra didn’t know what was right or wrong about Zosteylor’s civil strife but she knew in the end, ordinary people were the most innocent.
Harper smiled mildly, “Thank you.” He suddenly raised his head and asked softly, “I’ll go back to school. Will you stop hating me? I just want to be your friend. I’m a fan.”
Cassandra was speechless. After a while, she nodded.
As for why Cassandra agreed, she didn’t even know the answer.
Harper bared his teeth in a grin happily, revealing his two canine teeth. “That’s good.” It was quite cute. He added, “I wish you a safe journey.”
The Evacuation Operation was ongoing. Although Kamila agreed to the three–day appointment, she had caused many troubles for them after that, delaying the progress of the operation.
But it made sense. They had disagreements but she was threatened to reach an agreement. So, it seemed that she was only angrier.
In the past few days, they did everything to stop people from being sent to the consulate, setting fires, causing car accidents, and imprisoning people though they took care of the

food and water.
However, Harper had a secret weapon, Cassandra. Cassandra could accurately find everyone’s location to buy time for the rescue. If car accidents happened or roads were ruined, she could devise alternative plans in time so that the rescue team could take a shortcut.
In the face of a lot of difficulties, Falcon Special Operations Force and the army worked together to send people to the consulate on time. The plan was implemented in batches using different vehicles. Finally, at 11:00 p.m. on October 8th, the last batch of people were on the plane.
When the plane took off, everyone in the Falcon Special Operations Force breathed a sigh of relief.
“Wow!”
“Ahhhhh!”
“It’s finally over.”
Fortunately, this time, there were no shots fired and everything went well.
“When are we heading back?”
“Now!”
“Now?”
“Yes.”
Cassandra was stunned. She thought, ‘It’s so fast this time.’
Kenneth asked everyone to gather around him. He stood in the middle and said seriously, “Mission completed. Pack your things. We’ll leave in half an hour.”
Someone asked, “Commander Zelinski, we haven’t finished everything.”
Zelinski said, “The rest will be left to the army. We have things to deal with back home.”

There were a few things to be done now. He received an order from his superior that demanded Falcon Special Operations Force to return home as soon as possible.
The secret weapon of the state was the safest only when it was at home.
Everyone else said, “Yes, sir!”
Half an hour later, everyone packed up their things and got on the plane.
After a few hours, they finally landed in Drieso and Daniel returned their phones.
After Cassandra turned on her phone, she found countless missed calls, including a call from Whitecrane Hall’s emergency number.
She automatically ignored the other missed calls and messages and dialed Whitecrane Hall’s emergency number.
Cassandra asked, “What happened?”
Jeremiah turned on his phone and found a missed call from the same number.
He walked toward Cassandra in a hurry and said, “Cassie.”
Cassandra suddenly said, “What did you say?”
Her expression instantly changed. She looked cold and indifferent.
Cassandra asked, “When did it happen?”
After a while, she said, “Okay.”
Cassandra hung up the phone.
Jeremiah said, “Elaine, what is going on? I turned on my phone and saw…”
Cassandra said, “Hugo is missing.”
She took out a phone from her bag and began to search for things about Hugo. Daniel was talking with someone, not far away from her. Seeing that Cassandra looked solemn, he walked toward her. “Emery, this is…”
Before he could finish his words, Jeremiah pulled him away and said, “Don’t disturb her. She is looking for someone.”
Since they landed directly at a base of the Falcon Special Operations Force, the team was quickly dismissed and someone would take care of the report.
Kenneth walked to Cassandra and noticed that she looked nervous. He asked worriedly, “Cassie, what’s wrong?”
Cassandra ignored him and went on with her work.
Suddenly, she said, “I’m going to Whitecrane Hall.”
