Lucille dashed straight into the bathroom upon entering. Clueless about her intentions, Daisy and Bethany merely stood by the side without stopping her or asking her any questions.A minute later, they saw Lucille holding a small basin filled with clean water, leaving both of them speechless and confused.A gorgeous man lay sprawled out in a less-than-graceful sleep pose on the bed with white sheets in the bedroom. Only his pale arms were visible, revealing the well-defined contours of his muscular physique, which made it easy to overlook his awkward sleeping position.Hunter slept soundly, his lips twitching slightly as he smiled foolishly. With his mouth slightly agape, his expression was set into a goofy grin. It made one wonder what a beautiful dream he could have in broad daylight.At that sight, Daisy glanced disdainfully at him and facepalmed herself.An emotionless Lucille held the basin of water as she stood by the bed and, without a hint of hesitation, poured the water o

With a calm look and tone, Lucille replied, "If so, I'll spread the word myself and hope they come to me instead. It'd be so much easier that way."Hunter's eyes widened in disbelief. This brat dared to threaten him!She glanced at him with no sense of panic, as though knowing he would do her the favor regardless. She leaned against the couch and patiently waited for his reply.Hunter had to be the person to handle the task of locating Base 103. After all, she wouldn't have approached him with such unpleasant news if she didn't have to.Daisy, who was watching the discussion from the side, silently counted to 30. After half a minute, Hunter piped up, as expected, and huffed coldly. "Alright, alright. I'll do it. What choice do I even have?"As though having foreseen the outcome, Daisy shrugged and glanced at him with a scoff. "You literally said you wouldn't do it even if she begged. What happened? We haven't even gotten to that part, and you've already given in. How boring."Luc

Lucille found George sitting on the couch in the living room. "Commander Lawton?" She was shocked to see him."I'm sorry to have shown up unannounced, Mrs. Layton." He rose and turned toward her.Lucille sat across from him and said, "Have a seat. How has your sister been?"Since the accident at the filming location, Claire's family had taken her back home, and Lucille hadn't seen her since then. But she'd heard from Bailey that Claire had recovered enough to walk now.George sat down again and smiled politely. "She's fine; she just requires some more rest."He was the typical tough and reliable-looking type of man, with a neat short haircut that suited his demeanor well. His features were also nice and well-defined."That's great to hear. Why are you here, then?" Lucille asked.Immediately, George took out two personal profiles from a paper file folder he'd brought along with him. "Mrs. Layton, could you please look and see if you know these two individuals?" He laid the papers

The longer Lucille looked at it, the more her frown deepened.George sat on the edge of the couch, leaning forward with his elbows on his thighs and his hands clasped together. He explained, "We actually discovered this by accident. What a coincidence that when we tracked these two individuals, we noticed your presence wherever they went."That includes the time you went to Marvonia. Although they took a different flight, they landed at the same destination and walked the same paths as you did in."Was it all just a coincidence? That could be it if it had been just a few times, but there was evidently a pattern, meaning it was no longer a coincidence.Lucille wasn't shocked by that revelation. She'd always known that she was being followed, but what surprised her was that the people doing it were Jane's aides. In fact, she'd even investigated it before and found no traces that connected to Jane.So, how had George discovered that?She looked up at him with suspicion, and there wa

Lucille remained calm. Of course, she recognized how implausible it was. She was a researcher, after all. Still, she couldn't deny that many strange things had happened that had challenged her belief.Now that she thought about it, she found it ironic because it had been more than 20 years. It simply was impossible.…At the Johnson residence, William had been calling Lucille repeatedly. However, she'd neither answered nor declined his calls.Since she'd blocked all their numbers, he'd assumed that she would pick up if he used another number. He would've known she refrained from answering a stranger's calls if he knew her well enough.Besides, the call was still from Whiteloop City, where she only had a few acquaintances. She would've saved the contact numbers of everyone she was close to.Johnson Group had been losing a few long-time clients lately. It was the end of the year, and they couldn't afford to be financially unstable. They needed to ensure the following year's revenue
