Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 1525

"Because your mother and I were worried there was a mole. Nice had warned us to be extra careful."

"Besides, an official government rendezvous would be a high-profile target, with a greater chance of being discovered by Alerasia."

"So, we planned to find a reliable person to bring the real virus back to the country first. Then, we would take a fake one to meet the government contacts. This one."

Kendrick held up a small box to the camera.

It looked almost identical to the one Tarquin had found.

Kendrick opened it. Inside was only a single vial of liquid. "This is the fake."

"If everything went smoothly, after we returned to Zhinora, I would immediately go to Border City to retrieve the real one and hand it over to the government."

"If something happened to your mother and me, the real virus wouldn't fall into the wrong hands!"

"Tarquin, remember this: if your mother and I truly met with a mishap, we were either killed by the powers behind the virus, or there was a mole among the people sent to retrieve us!"

"Today, I will give this recording and the real virus to someone I trust completely, and have him take it back to the country immediately."

"In a couple of days, your mother and I will take this fake one and meet up with our contacts."

"Let's hope everything goes smoothly."

"But even if it doesn't, the fact that you're watching this recording means things are hopefully moving in the right direction."

"Tarquin, when you get the virus, don't just hand it over to anyone. You must deliver it personally into the hands of the highest authorities!"

"If you have a brilliant doctor by your side right now, even better. Keep it completely under the radar. Quietly give the virus to the doctor to develop an antidote, and the crisis will be completely resolved!"

Elizabeth wiped her tears and said to Kendrick, her eyes red.

"Tell him about the government's retrieval plan. If something really happens to us, our son will be able to figure out who the mole is!"

"The foreign powers are hateful, but a traitor from our own side is even more despicable!"

When a foreign country tries to harm you, it might be due to political conflict or territorial ambition.
