Taya sat on a bench for a long time, wiping away the tears.
on her face. After replying to Neil’s message, she found that there were several calls from a foreign number. She glanced at them briefly, but her phone blacked out. It was displaying a low battery sign when she turned it back on.
She didn’t bother herself over those missed calls. She put her phone back in her pocket, and hailed a taxi back to the villa. She entered from the backyard and didn’t disturb anyone, quietly arriving at her bedroom on the second floor.
The servant who received a call from Griffon hurriedly replied respectfully, “Ms. Palmer hasn’t woken up yet, Alpha Knight.” Griffon, who couldn’t get through Taya’s phone, furrowed his brows slightly and asked, “She’s usually awake at this hour, why hasn’t she gotten up yet?”
The servant was alarmed by his reminder and replied, “Wait a minute, let me go check.” The servant didn’t dare to hang up the phone and quickly walked in the direction of the master bedroom. After gently pushing open the door, she saw Taya was lying on the bed with her eyes closed, sound asleep. The servant’s heart that was hanging in suspense suddenly relaxed. She quickly left the room and picked up the telephone receiver to tell Griffon, “Sir, Ms. Palmer is really
Griffon finally relaxed, instructing the servant, “Prepare a
nutritious breakfast and encourage her to eat more when she
wakes up.” Then, Griffon quickly hung up the phone as if he
didn’t have time, throwing his mobile phone to Emelyn beside
him.
Emelyn, who was being ruthlessly treated, looked up at the man wearing a blue and green mask. A hint of impatience flashed in her eyes, “Before the mission, in such an urgent situation, you decided to call your wife. The mission isn’t over yet, but you can’t wait to call her.”
“You not only called her, but you also borrowed my phone. Can’t you just get your own phone?” Griffon ignored Emelyn’s complaints. He felt a sense of unease in his heart that made him increasingly irritable.
“How much longer until it’s over?” Emelyn, who had a white feather mask on, turned to the side as she snorted again.
“Greyson, how can you still have the nerve to ask how much longer it will take? If you weren’t distracted last night, two important targets wouldn’t have escaped.” Griffon’ face remained cold, with no response, as his mind was full of Taya.
Originally, he was supposed to head back to meet up with her after finishing the mission at the NASA. However, something
happened within the organization. Although he didn’t want to
deal with it, Emelyn ordered someone to intercept the car he was passing by while waiting in the restaurant…
After hearing about the involvement of several thousand lives in the headquarters, he was persuaded by Emelyn to take her brother’s place in solving the problem. However, before the operation, he borrowed Emelyn’s phone and called Taya.
He wanted to talk to her in advance, but no one answered the phone. Thinking that something had happened, he quickly called home, but the servant told him that Taya had already
gone to bed. He didn’t want to wake her up so he didn’t let the
servant wake her to answer the phone. Because he didn’t hear her voice, he was anxious all night.
The uneasiness distracted him during the operation, which resulted in two individuals escaping from under his grasp, something that had never happened before.
Before the two individuals escaped, they had unmasked
Emelyn. If they didn’t handle it properly today, “S” would be
exposed to the public…
Thinking of this, Griffon looked up at Zack, who was
regulating the tracking route, and asked, “Have you located
them?”
Zack’s fingers operated on the keyboard for a while before he
respectfully replied, “Sir, they are in the slums.”
Griffon withdrew his gaze and coldly scanned the driver,
“Drive!”
