Chapter 1562 Being a Badass

Author: Night Eleven
After finishing her sentence, Aria ended the call. She trusted her senior would take action on that end. Besides, nobody at the Public Integrity Task Force would dare ignore her message after hearing the way she spoke.

Lucas had received his transfer orders. Just after arriving, people were already waiting for him at the train station before he had even attended any meetings. None of them were low-ranking, which matched his own status.

The phone call came at an oddly perfect time. It rang right as he left the station, and it was from the Public Integrity Task Force. He hadn't forgotten why he was transferred here, so he glanced at his secretary.

His secretary, Douglas Nixon, told the others, "Mr. Murray has some personal business to attend to."

Douglas handled things smoothly. He immediately blocked a few people from approaching, though they were all prominent public officials from Ludwiten.

Lucas did not want to delay the matter for too long.

After hearing the problem, he

    Everyone knew how close the Carver and York families were. Warren could only hope that the Yorks were not the next target."I'll call the Yorks," Warren said calmly. He took out his phone and rang Titus, but no one answered. Something flashed in Warren's eyes. "Something might have happened. Fergus, go check on them. We'll stay here with Homer."Fergus nodded. "Okay. I'm going now."Warren waved his hands. "Be careful. Tell me immediately if anything happens.""Got it, Grandpa." Fergus moved to his car and drove off.The duel between Sylas and Homer had drawn a crowd. People filmed from a safe distance—few mortals had seen such power. The shockwaves and gusts from the clash were exactly the kind of footage that would go viral.Fiona helped Warren sit down. "Dad, do you think we're getting in Homer's way?"Warren glanced at the duel. "No. We're far enough. If Homer wins, we're safe. If he falls, we go with him."Fiona hesitated, then said, "Okay. We'll stay with Homer."Warre

    Thinking the housekeeper, Judith Warclox, had returned from grocery shopping, Fiona called out, "Judith, you're back early."However, there was no response. Puzzled, Fiona turned around and saw several men standing at the doorway. It was Aria's brothers, Fergus, Rafael, and Jeffrey. "Mom, Grandpa, we're home!" the trio chorused, their arms filled with gifts. Fiona smiled. "I thought you all were busy. Why the sudden visit?"Fergus grinned. "Well, we're not as busy as the others. We heard Grandpa hasn't been feeling well, so we brought some supplements to help him recover."Warren looked pleased. "It's good to have you all back. It just feels strange not seeing you for so long."Jeffrey leaned down to speak to him. "Grandpa, are you watching the news again? Don't worry. Aria is fine. She'll come back once things settle down."Warren rapped his knuckles lightly on Jeffrey's head. "You really had to say it out loud, huh?"Fergus and Rafael chimed in, "Jeffrey is right. Grandpa

  • The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call   Chapter 2085 Uneasiness

    From the very first time Wesson crossed paths with Aria and the others, he had indeed sent someone to investigate their backgrounds. However, all he managed to uncover was that Landon was the head of the York family, and Aria was the only daughter of the Carver family.By now, Wesson no longer saw them as ordinary civilians. Judging by how they operated, they seemed more like members of a secretive government unit from Farshya.Across the globe, Wesson prided himself on knowing nearly every government agency—except those of Farshya. He only knew the ones on record, while whatever lay hidden beneath remained an enigma.Aria looked up. "You're such a clever man, Mr. Laker. Don't tell me you have no clue."Wesson shook his head. "I really don't know. Your country's departments are far too secretive. I can only assume you belong to one of its hidden branches, but I know nothing about the specifics."Aria's tone softened as she swiftly pulled open a drawer, revealing a small recordin

    While Aria and Landon smiled at the pendant, Madden and the others were rendered speechless. "T-This is a miracle! These relics seem to have come alive!"Aria looked at the relics thoughtfully. They were treasures of the Farshyan civilization—silent witnesses to its rise, fall, and rebirth. After years of wandering in foreign lands, they could finally return home. Aria reached out to take the pendant. "They're just waiting for someone to bring them back home. Don't worry. I'll take you all home."As soon as she spoke, the relics seemed to understand. Their glow softened and slowly faded as they settled back onto the stone platform.The air around them lightened, no longer heavy with grief and unease.Madden's voice trembled with emotion. "I've already contacted my subordinates back home. A private jet will be arranged to transport these relics. They're all national treasures. I won't allow anything to go wrong."Aria gave a small nod, her gaze landing on one of the relics inside

    Before Wesson could reply, Aria hung up. He cursed as the call ended, fury boiling over. "Fuck! Aria, you're going to pay for this with your life!"Wesson's urge to kill Aria had reached a fever pitch. Ever since the researchers had been rescued, she had ruined every one of his plans. He had never paid her much heed before, but now she topped his kill list.Wesson had been tracking Aria and the others through Los Stratos nonstop. While he suspected she might head to Mecira, he hadn't expected her to unmask Dashiell as the mole. From the looks of it, there was no way to stop Dashiell from returning to Farshya.Once the truth came out, international investigators would follow the trail straight to Wesson. When that happened, it would be the end of him. Thinking that, he knew he needed a way out, or his life was ruined."Mr. Laker, calm down." His assistant, Remy Wilder, tried to soothe him. Wesson turned to Remy. "What did you find out? Any private flights that departed in th

    Aria could tell that Dashiell losing money just as he started gambling could be a setup all along. It was just so that Wesson could get Dashiell to do his bidding. Dashiell's gaze wavered. "Now that it's come to this, there's no hope of escaping for me. Still, I know you can't touch Wesson.""Let me worry about that." Aria lowered her voice. "I know you met Hogan downstairs. He wanted to get you out of here, but you had other plans. If you could clear your name, you could have kept your post as Deputy Secretary of Defense.""Hogan?" Dashiell's mind spun. He had been on an emotional roller coaster and had almost forgotten Hogan. If Hogan knew he'd been exposed, he'd send someone to rescue him. The thought steadied Dashiell slightly.Aria didn't look at him. She leaned over her laptop, logged into an encrypter, and began verifying and compiling the recording of their conversation along with the information he had given.…Meanwhile, Hogan arrived alone at an abandoned factory.
