The guardian's sword by Taking Cigarette novel Chapter 149

Chapter 149

A bad feeling suddenly arose in Mr. Schmidt’s heart.

He was no fool, or he would not be at where he was in his career.

There was absolutely no need for anyone from the CIA to be personally present in cases like these.

For Damian Wool to be present right now, it must be for someone that was involved in the case, right?

Following this thought, there were many thoughts that had flashed through his mind regarding Damian.

Did Charles Christian know Damian?

Or… Did Joey Yates know him?

Was this why Damian Wool had come personally to see how this case was being handled?

Mr. Schmidt’s mind was occupied with many questions he did not have the answer to.

That being said, he had never once thought that it could be Sean Lennon that had any relation to Damian Wool.

Sean was just a cripple. If he could be acquainted with a VVIP of Damian’s caliber, Mr. Schmidt swore that he would start writing his name backward from then on.

Hayden Luke’s mind was filled with worries.

If Damian was here today, it would be because Joey had called him.

Also, if that was the case, Sean was done for.

The CIA.

It was practically like the hall of judgment on earth.

With just one word, it could determine a person’s ending – if it was heaven or hell!

Hayden really wanted to help Sean, but this was out of his capabilities.

“What a crowd.”

When Damian walked in, he glanced through the entire room of people.

At that time, other than Sean and the young man that he was briefly acquainted with, Joey and her ten or more bodyguards, and a few of the government employees were also present.

It did… indeed look like a crowd.

“Cough… Director Wool, Madam Yates is the family of the deceased.

“The reason why we’ve got him here is to understand the situation better.”

Mr. Schmidt stepped up personally to explain. His tone was careful and wary.

If he angered Damian Wool, with just one look, he would be stripped of his ranking, title, and career in an instant.

This was why he did not dare to be sloppy and delayed in anything at all.

“What’s with all these other people then?”

Damian did not speak a word, but a man that was in his retinue spoke up with a frown.

“This…”

Mr. Schmidt was first taken aback, then he quickly waved his hands, gesturing for the others to leave the room.

Joey may be a rude and unreasonable person, but she was clear that Damian was someone of extremely high ranking.

She did not dare to say much and allowed her bodyguards to leave the scene for now.

Instantly, there was more space in the room.

Damian was unphased. He did not look at Sean or Joey before he made a beeline towards a chair and took his seat.

“Mr. Schmidt, continue.

After Damian was seated, he waved his hands slightly as he instructed.

He was calm and collected, firm yet filled with authority.

It was almost like he was really here by chance and was around to listen in.

However, just by him seated there, it had given the rest of the people in the room a huge sense of stress.

Other than Sean, no one else dared to sit in the entire room. They were all standing painfully straight.

Amongst all the people in the room, only Sean was unaffected by the strong aura exuded by

Damian.

“Ohh… Okay, okay…”

Mr. Schmidt was quick to nod his head. After a brief moment of hesitation, he looked at Sean.

The sense of dilemma in his heart thickened.

What was he to say to gain favor from Damian?
