"I don't know if I'm happy or not, but I do know that none of the things I'm doing now are what I want to do," said Daniel, turning his head to look at Linus.Linus watched as the sunset's rays scattered across Daniel's face, reminiscent of the younger Daniel. He smiled gently at him.He continued, "Then why don't you have the courage to pursue what you really want to do? You've been with Spades for 40 to 50 years. I think you should have your own life, shouldn't you?" At this moment, Daniel burst into laughter and finally put his hand on Linus' shoulder. "Silly Linus. At my age, what more out of life could I ask for? I could live until now, and that's already pretty good. I'm already very grateful to God. If I ask for more, I'm afraid God won't be able to grant it all."Linus lowered his head after hearing this, unsure of what to say. After all, what Daniel said was true, was it not?"Linus, it's been over 20 years, and this is the first time you've opened up to me like this. It
"By the way, before I left, I asked the boss if he could spare you and Lucy. He said no because he's friends with Charlotte. Since Charlotte asked him to do this, he absolutely can't betray her. "He has already gone against his word by naming Charlotte. If he doesn't complete Charlotte's task, he won't be able to show his face again."Hudson looked at Matthew after speaking, waiting for his response.Matthew furrowed his brows slightly upon hearing this. He then looked at Hudson and asked, "Is there anything else? Can you say everything in one go? This is taking too much time.""As you know, the reason we could make the boss of Spades talk is that the tendon in his hand was severed by his enemies a few years ago. Now, the people in the organization are eager to take his place. We threatened the boss with this, and I happen to have a friend who can heal him, so that's how it went," Koven explained everything.At this point, Matthew frowned slightly and looked at them. "What do you
"That's impossible. Who would dare to lay a hand on Mr. Zimmer? If they dare to touch someone like Linus, who's under Mr. Zimmer, would they not just end up dead? You know, Linus is already so powerful, and Mr. Zimmer grew up in Spades. Naturally, he wouldn't be lacking in capability. Moreover, Mr. Zimmer suffered more hardships in his youth compared to Linus."After Koven finished speaking, he picked up a bite of vegetables and put it in his mouth."It seems that neither of these two is easy to deal with, which is really annoying," said Charlie, pushing his glasses and sighing deeply."Oh, by the way, I wanted to ask you something. Do you think that someone as powerful as Mr. Zimmer would have only Linus as his trusted subordinate? That seems very abnormal." At this point, Koven furrowed his brows.The four people were all drawn into this topic, contemplating."Now that you mention it, I also think it's unlikely. How could someone as formidable as Mr. Zimmer have only one trusted
"Koven, why don't you search Spades again on Mermaid Network? I feel like we must've overlooked something. How could there only be one person under Mr. Zimmer? Moreover, he's preparing to rebel. At this point, shouldn't he have more people under him?" Hudson looked at Koven and said.Upon hearing this, Koven nodded. He took out his briefcase. After opening his laptop, he logged onto the Mermaid Network. He then searched for Spades.Everyone noticed Koven frowning slightly and gave him curious looks."What's wrong, Koven? Why aren't you saying anything?" Matthew observed him impatiently from the side, furrowing his brows."I just searched for information on Spades. Besides Linus, there's another person with a white avatar indicating female gender, but there's no detailed information. It's impossible to tell anything else." Koven finished speaking, looking puzzled at them.Upon this, everyone crowded around the computer."Yeah, I remember when you previously checked Spades, there w
After listening, Koven was deeply puzzled and turned to Matthew."You're not suspecting Selena, right? That's impossible. Just look at her silly appearance and you'd know she would never do such a thing. So, please stop guessing, okay? You always treat the people around you as bad guys." At this point, Matthew just directly asked Koven, "Do you know Selena's birthday?""April 26th," Koven glanced at him and replied.Matthew placed his hand on the computer, swiped twice, and opened the homepage of the white avatar."The birthday stated here is also April 26th. Could this be a coincidence?""Moreover, before Selena appeared, when we looked into Mr. Zimmer, only Linus was shown. Selena has just appeared, and we found someone with information identical to Selena's. Is this really just a coincidence?" After Matthew finished speaking, he looked at them.Just as Hudson was about to speak, Matthew interrupted. He made a shush gesture.Everyone looked at him in confusion, but they also
At this moment, everyone understood what was going on with Koven.After all, Koven had been single for so long and finally found someone he liked, only to find out she was associated with Spades. Whoever it was, they would struggle to accept it.Koven's phone rang in his pocket.Then, everyone looked at each other.Koven took out his phone from his pocket. It was a call from Selena.At this moment, Koven was still unwilling to accept that Selena was an undercover agent sent by Spades.After hesitating for a few seconds, he still chose to answer the call."Hello, Selena," Koven said in a very low tone.Selena's loud voice came from the phone."Koven, when are you coming back? It's been so long!" Selena said plaintively.After hearing this, Koven did not know how to respond for a moment. After all, the cat had already been let out of the bag, and he could not just pretend it never happened. Moreover, all the evidence now pointed to Selena. This matter was definitely orchestra
At this moment, Charlie pulled Matthew aside and whispered to him, "But what if Linus admits that Selena is an undercover agent? What do we do then?" After hearing this, Matthew pondered. Yes, if Linus really admitted that Selena was an undercover agent, what should they do next? "But Linus' explanation is like a lifeline for Koven now. If we don't ask Linus, what else can we do?" After Matthew finished speaking, he rubbed his temples and looked at Charlie opposite him."We can't rule out the possibility that Selena is a suspect. If Selena isn't involved, that's fine. But if she is, how do we explain this to Lucy and Chelsea?" Charlie's headache began to worsen as he thought about this."But there must be a resolution. Whether Selena is an undercover agent or not—even if she isn't—we can't let her continue to stay close to Lucy and Chelsea. And you know, Selena has trained in martial arts. "If she were to try to abduct Lucy and Chelsea, it would be a matter of minutes. If we
Daniel almost died of rage when he heard this. He immediately said, "Didn't I tell you? Don't put it in any pocket. If you must hide it, place it in a watch or necklace. The bug is small, but it can be easily discovered. This is extremely disappointing!" Selena remained silent for a moment before saying, "Does this mean I've been discovered?" Daniel let out a deep sigh and said, "I don't know the exact situation yet. Just when I was about to hear something crucial, the bug suddenly went silent. I'm not sure if you've been discovered or not."Wait a while and see. When Koven returns, see what he says. If Koven asks you, just say you don't know anything. Wait and observe the situation. If things go south, evacuate." Selena acknowledged and then hung up the phone.She sat in the house, restless. If the mission was aborted now, it would be too soon. She had not been around them for long. Could she have been discovered already? What should she do? Meanwhile, Matthew said, "I'll ca
