Chapter 1156


    After Aria left, Richard looked at Bruce kindly. There was unconceble admiration and gratification in


    Richard’s eyes, as well as aplicated light that he wanted to say something but hesitated.


    Bruce felt goosebumps all over his body. He could not help but ask in a low voice. “Mr. Thompson,


    what do you want to say to me?”


    Richard came back to his senses and said with a smile, “Bruce, youpleted this mission very well.


    I’m very gratified. You’re the best talent I’ve met…”


    “Mr. Thompson, you tter me.” Bruce lowered his eyes and hid the heaviness in them.


    “Bruce, let’s sit down and talk! There’s no need to be so reserved.” As he spoke, Richard personally


    poured a cup of coffee for Bruce and handed it to him affectionately.


    Seeing this, Bruce took it cautiously. “Thank you, Mr. Thompson.”


    In this world, Bruce would probably only be so reserved and uneasy in front of Richard, like a primary


    school student facing a teacher.


    “You’re wee. Sit down and talk.”


    “Uh, what do you think about the organization recently? Feel free to tell me!”


    When Bruce heard this, he could not help but feel a chill run down his spine. From his attitude, Richard


    was probably going to ask Bruce to stay again.


    “Mr. Thompson, I’ve mentioned it to you before. Afterpleting the mission, I want to apply to quit the


    organization… You’ve promised before that. I hope you can approve


    it.”


    When Richard heard this, his hand that was holding the cup froze in midair. After pondering for a while,


    heughed heartily.


    “Bruce, I’m retiring next year.”


    Bruce’s heart skipped a beat.


    Richard continued, “I told you before that you’re the sessor I’ve nurtured.

    “When I retire, I want you to take my ce.”


    When Bruce heard this, his entire body tensed up and he immediately stood up. “Mr. Thompson, I


    really can’t do it.


    “Moreover, my health situation doesn’t allow me to do so now. I just want to rest well and spend the rest


    of my life with my family…”


    Richard added, “I know. I know what you’re thinking. You don’t have to be in a hurry to reject me.


    “I also know that something has happened to Mrs. Everett. You want some time to apany your


    family


    Bruce’s heart skipped a beat.


    “It’s what you should do. A good man should protect his country.


    “First there is a country, then there is a family. Over the years, you havepleted every task very


    well. There are many impossible tasks that you havepleted very well.” Richard did not hide his


    admiration for Bruce.


    Indeed, Bruce’s excellence had greatly exceeded Richard’s expectations including this mission. It was


    almost impossible toplete.


    However, not only did Bruceplete it, but he also shocked the world. The destruction of District 17


    was simply satisfying. This was the first time Melta had suffered such a huge loss. It could be


    considered as venting the anger of the world.


    Such a talent was destined to be a legend and could not be buried.


    “Thank you for years of teaching and nurturing, Mr. Thompson.”


    “I’m very grateful, Mr. Thompson. You’re my teacher. Even if I leave the organization, you’ll always be


    the person I respect the most.”

    Richard smiled kindly and patted Bruce’s shoulder. “Bruce, to tell you the truth, the country really needs


    a talent like you.


    “At the moment, I’ve already submitted your information to the superiors. The superiors have already


    appointed you to take over the position of deputy director. Do you know what this means?”


    When Bruce heard this, his scalp went numb, and he immediately refused. “I really can’t. Please


    understand, Mr. Thompson.”

    The higher ups had appointed Bruce as the deputy director, which meant that in the future, they would


    hand over the entire National Defense Bureau to him.


    Every director needed to be the deputy director first before taking over National Defense Bureau.


    Richard was also promoted from the position of deputy director to director.


    However, Bruce had made up his mind. He just wanted to return to his family and live the life of an


    ordinary person.


    “You don’t have to be in such a hurry to decline. I can give you an indefinite leave.


    “And National Defense Bureau will always keep your position. You cane back anytime.”


    “Mr. Thompson, I… I really can’t do it. Please approve my withdrawal from the organization.” Bruce


    frowned, and his heart was a mess.
