Chapter 1353 Fired

Penulis: Night Eleven
Aurelia shot a glance at Jett as she spoke, convinced he wouldn't heed Aria's demand to fire her. After all, Jett had always been considerate to his employees.

But Jett's response was sharper than anything he had said since entering the shop. "Pack your things and leave."

Aurelia froze. "You can't! Mr. Grisham, I need this job—I have rent due next month. You can't just fire me!"

She turned to Aria, her eyes burning with resentment. "This is all because of you. You rich people think you can look down on us. You have no idea what it's like to be an ordinary person!"

"Your words are an insult to ordinary people," Aria replied coolly, staying put to watch how Jett would handle it. She also wanted to see if he would understand how someone like Aurelia had ended up working in his store in the first place.

Jett's mind flashed to the scene at the Grisham residence, and realization dawned. Aurelia and his Uncle Robert were cut from the same cloth.

Until now, Jett had wondered if there had

    Aria and Landon quickly slipped into their new identities. Landon was now Reuben Millard, Aria his assistant, and Sam their bodyguard. "Wear the gold-rimmed glasses," Aria told Landon, glancing sideways. "The men who came for Reuben likely have specific details about them. We can't afford a single slip-up."He nodded and put on the gold-rimmed glasses while she took a tablet out of Reuben's briefcase.Aria's fingers moved across the tablet's screen. "I've got Reuben's itinerary right here.""This is your most important mission ever. Cyclops' most trusted man, Cobra, is coming to pick up Reuben. He has a snake tattoo on his right arm. We have to make them believe we're the people they're looking for."With a nod, Landon took the tablet. "Don't worry about me," he said in a cold, distant tone.Aria's lips curved faintly. "Good. Keep that up. Once we're inside, I'll find a way to study their defenses. That will make the rescue easier."Then she turned to Sam. "Your job is to keep

    Braddell's voice was low and firm. "What did he do?""I observed him in secret. Though he appeared to be casually chatting, he was actually extracting key information."The person on the other end paused briefly."For example, he asked about patrol shift changes and shared drinks with the guard in the cabin. I don't know what they discussed exactly."Braddell's expression turned cold and serious. "Keep a close watch on him. We'll play the long game and find out who he's working for.""Mr. Zorell, maybe we should just kill him now so he can't interfere with our plans," the other suggested."It won't do us a lick of good if we kill him now."Tapping the table, Braddell continued, "He's here for the researchers. Someone will definitely contact him. Keep monitoring him. If you discover his goal, capture him alive. If you fail, shoot him on the spot.""Understood, Mr. Zorell."After ending the call, Braddell smiled faintly. He distrusted everyone around him, always skeptical. That

    Aria quietly weighed her options. A frontal assault was too risky. The members of Nightrain had mortars and firearms. The gap in firepower was too great, and she risked alerting them.If she failed, not only would the researchers remain captive, but the whole mission could collapse. Disguise and infiltration might be possible, but Nightrain was notorious for its paranoia. Strangers were treated with suspicion, and bullets came before questions. If she tried, she would need an airtight cover."I'm back." Codie's voice came from the mouth of the cave.Aria rose, pulled open the wire mesh, and let him inside."Two men were patrolling nearby. I drove them off," Codie said as he sat on the ground. "Good thing I reacted quickly. Another minute and we'd be in serious trouble."Even in the murky light, Aria's face was a study in clear lines."Judging from the map, a direct approach is impossible. Do you know their shift schedule?" she asked."I've been watching. Patrols rotate every h

    Landon knew of Aria's dream for world peace. On the surface, it sounded attainable—but beneath it lay a maze of complications.When they arrived at the hotel, uniformed staff promptly opened the car doors and whisked away their luggage with practiced efficiency.After checking in and settling into their room, Aria turned to Landon. "I'm heading out soon to meet a contact."Landon nodded. "Alright. I've got a video conference to jump into anyway." Standing by the window, Landon was bathed in sunlight, as if wrapped in a layer of gold. Sam flopped onto the couch. "What about me, Boss?""There's a fast-food place nearby. I'll get you a bucket of wings and drumsticks," Aria said. "That should keep you busy."Sam smiled. "That's more than enough. Let's get it now."Aria looked at Landon. "Come with us. We'll look around a bit."Landon turned. "Sure. Whatever you say."A few minutes later, the three of them stepped out of the hotel. Just as they were about to head right, a sleek

    "Do you have men in Mecira?" Aria asked coolly.Wynric puffed his chest. "Of course. It's my home, after all. I might not know much about other places, but Mecira? I know it like the back of my hand."Aria smiled. "Let's find somewhere quiet to talk about this."Wynric tilted his head with a teasing grin. "That's a big shift in attitude from earlier. Don't tell me you're after whatever those researchers are carrying too?"Aria arched her brow lazily. "That's classified. Let's find a place first.""Sure. Hop in," Wynric said, sliding into the passenger seat of his truck. He glanced back at them. "You'll have to stand in the back, though. It's open-air and roomy. Don't be shy—I'll take you to a nearby café."The back of the truck was spacious, but unforgiving. With no seats and the road winding ahead, the trio had no choice but to stand, gripping the rail to avoid being tossed with every jolt and turn.Aria climbed in first, her movements swift and sure. She extended a hand, helpi

    Bale forced himself to stay calm. "My superiors have already verified my identity. I'm afraid you're not in any position to question me."Aria's gaze sharpened. "You're stubborn, I'll give you that. But I have bad news for you. Your superiors already know about this and sent someone to reinvestigate. I'm sure they've uncovered the truth by now." Bale's expression darkened. He suddenly drew a gun from his waistband and leveled it at Aria. "So this was all part of your plan? Clever. I'll admit you got me."Aria didn't flinch despite the barrel aimed at her. "The line between truth and lies is thinner than you think. I'll give you another piece of advice. Even if I don't know every foreign official personally, I know enough. No matter how well you altered your face or your body, you're still a fake."Bale let out a harsh laugh. "I didn't expect to be outsmarted by a young woman. But it doesn't matter. We have enough people here to kill all of you and disappear without a trace.""You
