Chapter 240
John tightened his brows while Helen kept mum.
“She’s been dating Pierre recently because she wants to marry into the Fowler Family, but as an ambitious woman, she would never allow my sons to be the young masters of the family. That’s why she planned the incident this time. I think she probably planned to get both of them, but Jojo was saved because he went to the washroom.”
Helen nodded in agreement. “What Meredith said makes sense. The fact that Selena could get to her position today shows that she’s not a simple woman, and so all the more reason we have to keep our guards up against her.”
“Mr. Fowler, the only way to find Jamie now is to follow Selena and find out if she has any other plans, then maybe we might still have some hope left! If she’s a little more ruthless, maybe Jamie is already…”
In the meantime, Selena was unable to relax throughout the whole search operation because she knew that she couldn’t pin all her hopes on John. This incident started because of her, so she had to be responsible.
Sitting in the car considering her options, she picked up her cell phone and contemplated calling a certain number which she had never called before. Maybe he’ll have some solutions.
However, she didn’t have the courage to make the call. Hence, she started the engine and left the Fowler Residence.
On the way, she ran through the whole incident carefully in her mind—whether there was anyone suspicious along the way, what went wrong, and what other plans the other party might have made in advance.
However, no matter how she thought about it, she couldn’t think of any part when it went wrong. She was so focused on playing with the three kids that she had let her guard down completely.
The base was hidden deep in the Moses Mountain range; nobody knew of its existence and what was going on in here. The whole time, Pierre was here without any cell phone signal. If he wanted any signal, he would have to walk out of the base. But that would make him an easily visible and huge target. Furthermore, once his cell phone signal appeared here, it might also leak information.
So even though his cell phone was turned on, he couldn’t receive anything. Whenever he was bored, he would stroke Selena’s picture on his cell phone.
He had to admit that he really missed her. In fact, he missed her to bits. There hadn’t been anyone who could distract him this much.
In the next instance, a knock came on the door, and he regathered his thoughts before answering, “Come in.”
Startled to see the person who walked in, he sprang up from his seat until the other man gestured for him to take his seat, and they sat across from each other.
“How are the investigations on your side regarding that spy with the codename Moon?” the man asked.
Sighing, Pierre replied, “I’ve confirmed her location the last time, but I didn’t expect her to be so cunning and give me the slip.” Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
“Silver Fox, we’ve recently found some specific information about this spy.”
“Really?” he asked alertly.
The man handed a document to him, and he took it. When he saw the name written on it, he placed the document down and said, “This is impossible.”
“Why is it impossible?” the man asked in confusion. “It seems like you’re not in your best shape recently, Silver Fox.”
Calming his emotions, Pierre picked up the document again. “How did you manage to get this information?”
“Our investigation department has spent a lot of effort on it. The other party’s movements have been very hidden lately, and it wasn’t easy to find out anything about them at all.”
Staring downward, Pierre asked, “So what should I do?”
“The base doesn’t have anything important for now, so you can take care of this spy properly. Remember to make it as secretive as possible. It would be best if you could catch them in one fell swoop, but even if you can’t, you shouldn’t alert them. I believe in your abilities.”
