The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1491

"We split into two teams!"

Quinton issued the tactical order coldly, his sole objective being the extraction of Claire.

There was already a helicopter idling on the helipad. To draw the SSD's fire, someone had to board that chopper and lead them away.

Meanwhile, the remaining operatives would force a breach through the blockade, escorting the asset out through a secondary route!

"We need someone to act as a primary decoy. Ideally, someone whose face was compromised at the university."

Tycho and Felicity were the only logical choices.

Quinton's face was entirely clean, so he intended to personally escort Claire out through the shadows.

"Send Tycho. He's a better fighter than me."

Felicity spoke up immediately.

She had absolutely no intention of volunteering. Decoys meant to draw this level of heat usually ended up as red mist.

Felicity was impulsive, but she didn't want to die.

Tycho glared at her. "No one is more suited for this than you. You're the one who caused this catastrophic mess to begin with!"

If they had a solid chance of survival, Tycho wouldn't have bothered arguing with her.

But he refused to die today.

If he died, his sister died!

Quinton could clearly see that neither of them wanted the job.

But they no longer had a choice!

"Both of you. Felicity, you will disguise yourself as the target. Tycho, you will escort her and draw their fire."

The order felt like a death sentence to both of them.

But in the Syndicate, orders were absolute.

Tycho's expression turned grim. "If I don't make it back from this..."

Quinton's eyes flashed. "The Syndicate will ensure your sister is taken care of."

Quinton knew Tycho's absolute obedience stemmed entirely from his sister's condition.
