The party had come to an abrupt end soon after. It wasn’t like the banquet was over, instead, it was more about exchanging pleasantries. Since Carl Gerald had no one to talk to, he figured he might as well call it a day.

“Sara.” He called.

Sara seemed to be enjoying the food, and after the humiliation of Austin Tyler and Tiffany Raymond, she’d been especially ecstatic.

From the distance she waved off to the few ladies she was conversing with.

“What?” She asked as she approached her foster brother.

“Do you want to stay here forever?” Carl Gerald teased.

Sara Gerald formed a small frown, “I… I can’t say?” She teased back, playing with the fabric of her gown that she’d forgotten to be ‘too revealing’.

“I meant we’re leaving.” Carl responded in defeat.

“You could’ve just said so from the beginning.” She grabbed Carl Gerald’s sleeve.

Her hands trembled softly. Carl Gerald expected as much, the attention of the crowd had yet to dwindle. It was another factor that prevented him from stayi

    Mrs Juliet Marcus's thoughts raced vehemently as she stared at Captain Luke.“But if I had to pinpoint changes... well, I'd start with internal communication.”“The agency operates on a need-to-know basis, which is vital for security, but it sometimes breeds silos.”“Elite Division Military units secret service agents in the field, like during the Justice Raids, could benefit from more cross-departmental briefings to avoid overlaps or missed intel.”“I'd love to see mandatory forums where lower ranks voice ideas without fear—think town halls inspired by the Unity Marches, but internal.” Mrs Juliet Marcus immediately said as she stared at Captain Luke through the rearview mirror.“Another thing, Captain Luke, is actually resource allocation. The focus on high-tech like Tech for Tranquility is brilliant, but grassroots efforts, such as expanding the Youth Reinforcement Programs, need more funding.”“We've diverted too much to border ops, leaving urban kids vulnerable to recruitment.

    Captain Luke slowly listened intently, his expression softening. After a moment, he turned his attention to Mrs. Juliet Marcus. "Mrs. Marcus, what's your take on General Carl Gerald initially blacklisting Jasmine and declaring her a public enemy of the Elite Divisions Military Units Secret Service Agency? It was a bold move, especially so quickly after the incident." His voice was laced with a mix of determination and curiosity as he asked and stared at Mrs Juliet Marcus.Mrs. Juliet Marcus sighed, folding her hands in her lap as she gathered her thoughts. "Captain Luke, it's a complex decision, but I understand where General Gerald was coming from. In the heat of the moment, with his sister—Sara—gunned down at such a public event, the priority was containment and protection.”“Blacklisting Jasmine was about sending a clear message: No one, not even someone close, gets a pass if evidence points their way. It prevented potential copycats, rallied our allies, and allowed for a swift i

    Zaia Scott immediately straightened up a bit, wiping at her eyes as she drew in a shaky breath. Her voice started soft but gained strength as she spoke, pouring out her convictions with raw emotion."Captain Luke, I know it looks bad—Jasmine disappearing right after the shot, the footage showing someone who matches her description—but I swear, deep down, I believe she's innocent.”“Jasmine's been my rock for years, way before any of this syndicate mess escalated.”“Let me tell you about the times she's proven her loyalty, her heart. Back when we were just starting out at the Venus Hills group, that sleazy Mr. Ramos Parker and his even worse father, Lord Patrick Parker, tried to corner us during a networking event.”“They were notorious perverts, always leering and making inappropriate advances, especially toward younger women like me and Sara Gerald when she joined us later. Jasmine didn't hesitate; she stepped right in front of them, her voice like steel.”'Back off,' she said, star

    Zaia Scott was a bit sleepy, she hadn't actually been herself since Jasmine disappeared from the crime scene after Sara Gerald had been shot by an unknown gunman.It had actually not been an easy thing for her since the moment Sara Gerald was shot, Sara Gerald was her friend and also was or is Jasmine, at least until it's proven that she isn't actually the person who shot Sara Gerald.Mrs Juliet Marcus was about to answer the questions when Captain Luke decided to actually answer the question that was asked by Zaia Scott.“Zaia Scott, we're almost there, but I apologize for the delay," Captain Luke said, his voice was very steady and reassuring as he glanced in the rearview mirror at the young woman slumped in her seat behind him at the back of the Elite Divisions Military All Terrain Vehicle."The journey's taking a bit longer than usual because we've had to reroute through some less-traveled paths for security reasons.”“You see, the new Elite Divisions Military Units Secret Health

    Debra Zachs immediately stared at Captain Luke and smiled faintly. "Mine are tied to loyalty, but that's a story for another time at the moment.” Her voice was laced with a mixture of determination and curiosity.Mrs. Juliet Marcus, sensing an opportunity, pressed on almost immediately."Captain Luke, one more thing—are the actions of the Black Triangle Syndicates, the White Lotus group, Lord Denver, and Lord Wilson good in any way? Or is it all as rotten as it seems?" Mrs Juliet Marcus immediately asked, her voice was laced with a mix of determination and curiosity like she was actually dying to hear Captain Luke's side of the story.Captain Luke's voice was immediately hardened, laced with righteous fury. "Good? Mrs. Marcus, there's not a shred of good in what they do—it's pure evil, cloaked in power and profit. Black Triangle's brute force?”“They crush innocents underfoot, extorting businesses, trafficking humans like commodities, leaving trails of blood. White Lotus's shadows?

  • Chapter 322:

    Captain Luke, before he was deployed for today's mission to help evacuate Sara Gerald, the sister of General Carl Gerald, who had been shot, had actually been discussing the fate of the Elite Divisions Military units secret service agency with some of his colleagues. The question at the moment really did seem to be like a test from General Carl Gerald's most trusted allies in the Elite Divisions Military units secret service agency, probably to rat out deadly scumbags who are feeding secret and highly classified intelligence to Lord Denver, Lord Wilson, the Black Triangle Syndicates and White Lotus group.Immediately Captain Luke's expression darkened to some extent, his voice turning a bit cold as he navigated a turn still maintaining his All Terrain Vehicle (ATV) position just trailing behind the Elite Divisions Military units secret health facility medical van that carried Sara Gerald, the sister of General Carl Gerald who had been shot, General Carl Gerald himself, Lieutenant Ale
