Chapter 23— Next Mission

"I think this is our time to act!" "Yeah, now that he's in a bad shape, he won't be on our tail anymore". Jack opted in with enthusiasm. "You guys don't know him like I do, Ryan Steven will stop at nothing to get what he wants, even when he's in a bad shape!" Lara added with a chuckle. "We've only got three months left for the bank heist to begin", Oliver spoke next. "These things take time, we'll need time to have a really good plan so that the mission can be successful!" Gianna said with a serious face. "Yes... and we've been making some progress so far!" Mia added. "I guess you're right!" Jack agreed.
