Chapter 3040
"Mr. Johnston, there's an update," Max conveyed with a serious tone." Everett has taken charge of the Eastern Falcon, and some members are now following his lead." "How resourceful," Jared remarked, his tone icy. Everett's sudden return had triggered Jared's suspicions, and Max's investigation confirmed them.
"It's likely more of his men will come to San Joto soon. Should we prepare?
" Max asked.
Understanding Max's concern, Jared advised, "Not yet. Let them come first. " He believed that intercepting now might only lead to new replacements. Waiting would make it easier to identify the targets.
"Okay," Max agreed.
Jared added, "Get Charlie to have someone shadow Nicole. We cant afford any mistakes on her end."
After giving a few more orders, Jared hung up. Turning around, he found Nicole standing behind him. He reached up and smoothed her hair, saying,"
You caught all of that." "Yeah, I guess I’ve underestimated Everett," Nicole admitted, her expression darkening. Everett's capabilities were more significant than she thought. 'No wonder he returned so confidently. The recent subtle actions are clearly meant to divert our attention while secretly redeploying his men.'
Fortunately, Jared had taken precautions and detected these moves before Everett's plans could fully materialize.
Holding her gently, Jared comforted, "Even if the real leader of the Eastern Falcon shows up, they won't be able to harm US."
Nicole bit her lip and suggested, "In that case, I think we should have Zane arrange another team to come over."
Nicole hesitated for a moment before asking, "If the mission needs me, just give me a heads up, okay?"
Zane laughed softly over the phone. "Don't worry. There will be times when we need you."
Nicole might not be as sharp in combat anymore, but her skills and smarts were still intact. Zane had let her retire, so others would take care of the main missions.
Zane just wanted her to enjoy a peaceful and simple life again.
"Sure thing," Nicole quickly agreed before ending the call.
