The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1681 - チャプター 1690

Walton had never played Werewolf, but he understood exactly what Aria meant. Now, she suspected that he was involved in the corruption matter as well! He couldn't help feeling guilty. After all, he handled all the personnel assignments himself. Mack just signed the paperwork and never got involved with such minor details. Aria studied him, her smile growing wider. "Whether I'm Tobias' apprentice or not doesn't change how I do things." As she spoke, she turned to Lucas. "Though you might have already figured out who I am, I should properly introduce myself—I'm 001 from Special Missions Unit." The mention of Special Missions Unit alone made everyone in the room freeze. They'd heard that the recent state government crackdown happened because this unit had uncovered enemy agents. When she revealed her codename, they could not believe their ears. These weren't low-level officials. They all knew about 001 but had always assumed this person was just a myth. Who would have a file c

Mack did not dare say anything extra now. He thought hard, scratching his head as he tried to recall who that friend was. He only had a vague memory of that person. "I… I remember he has an elderly voice. And then..." Soon, Mack realized he couldn't remember a single additional detail. He started to panic. "Why can't I remember what he looked like? We met several times!" Everyone else wanted to scream in desperation. What did he mean by he couldn't remember? Who would believe such an obvious lie? "Mr. Howell, there's no point hiding anything now. Just tell us everything—we're begging you." The directors' faces were ghost-white. They'd imagined the worst outcome might be losing their positions. But if they were actually tried as enemy agents, they could not imagine what would happen to their children and grandchildren since this was no ordinary crime. Sweat poured from Mack's palms. He took off his glasses and clutched his head as he growled, "I'm not hiding anything—I reall

Aria replied, "Those who monopolize public resources should pay the price." She did not bother to hide her intentions when responding. In fact, she told Lucas the truth. "If I hadn't shown up here, they might have escaped serious consequences with the current charges. "Even if they're arrested, they'd serve five or six years while their children continue enjoying special privileges. Meanwhile, those who lost their opportunities would never get anything back." Aria wasn't someone who would reveal her identity carelessly, just as Lucas suspected. Once these people met her, there was no way she would let them off so easily. "That director named Jared claimed he did nothing wrong." Aria glanced over. "He was a regular at the Draycotts bar. He just preferred more sophisticated entertainment—the poetic, artistic kind. "Much of the bar's data was destroyed. We tried recovering it, but only managed to salvage some. There aren't any videos of him. But Lucas, not a single person here

Aria tried to leave, but troublemakers kept getting in her way. Those who didn't even think that they had stolen opportunities from others were creating a scene outside. "Who's in charge here? Who authorized these arrests? Let me go! I said, let me go!" Before mounting her bike, Aria surveyed the commotion. Among them, Lacey Garber—the woman who'd somehow become a professor—was making the biggest fuss. "I'm not going anywhere. I'll say it again, you have no right to detain me. Do you have any idea who I am?"Leaning against her black Tomahawk, Aria glanced over before pocketing her phone. "Record everything she says and ask Mr. Holden to identify his wife." When Lacey heard Aria's voice, she looked Aria up and down dismissively. "Young lady, I don't know who you are or how you run your little investigation, but here's some free advice—don't pick fights you can't win." She clearly thought someone on a motorcycle couldn't possibly have any real authority. Aria snapped her he

Both Eamon and Waymond worried Aria had suffered mistreatment. After all, she had been taken away for questioning. What was more, while news had spread about her undercover work at the government departments, there were no details about how exactly she helped crack the case. Even without reading the reports, just hearing phrases like "auctioning girls under the guise of scholarship programs" and "organ harvesting" was enough. Eamon could imagine what kind of environment that must have been. "It's good that you're back safe. Your grandfather and your mother are waiting for you at home," Eamon said with a slight smile. "Jett wants you to check his recent performance. He's afraid he might mess up the land project he's managing." "I'm not worried about leaving the land project to Jett. I know you'll help him." Aria hesitated before adding, "But with Grandpa and Mom, please put in a good word for me. I really didn't think things through this time, and I made them worry too much." Ar
