The Mocked Miss’s Hidden Crowns novel Chapter 1170

The shocks just kept coming today, each one hitting harder than the last. Everyone was left with a pounding headache and a sense that they’d lost control.

First, Charlotte turned out to be Mrs. W’s granddaughter. Then, she dropped the bomb that she was actually the head of N Organization…

The surprises didn’t just shake the crowd below. Even Aloys and Marcia were floored. Charlotte, the leader of N Organization? She was so young, it hardly made sense. Maybe people with genetic mutations really did have abilities that defied reason.

But so what?

Aloys stared at her for a long moment, then finally pulled himself together. His voice came out cold. “Do you honestly think you and your little group from N Organization can just take the institute away from The Hawk Family and walk out of here in one piece?”

He still had a card to play, after all.

“Contact The Hawk Family. Gather everyone. Surround the institute,” he ordered, clenching his fists. A slow, humorless smile crept across his face. “Shut down every port. Don’t let anyone else get in.” His eyes locked on Charlotte, watching her calm face as he spoke each word crisply. “And bring me that boy.”

His orders given, Aloys turned back to Charlotte. His eyes, old and clouded, narrowed as his voice dropped to a rough whisper. “The virus strains have been separated. The institute doesn’t need you anymore. There’s no reason for you to live.”

She wanted to risk everything? Fine. He’d see her to the end.

“The strains may be separated,” Charlotte replied, glancing at the time, a small smirk on her lips, “but whether you get them or not is up to me.” She paused for effect. “Fourth thing: destroy all the labs before today is over.”

Destroy them?

Charlotte didn’t want the institute for herself. She wanted to wipe it off the map. If all the labs went up in flames, the research on genetic mutation would be gone for good.

The seriousness of it all sank in. Marcia snatched up her phone, ready to check the labs. Before she could even dial, a deafening boom shook the building.

The lab, just under two kilometers away, exploded in a fireball.
