Jasper Milton had a bad hunch. It was not even six o’clock in the morning yet. The 111 Special Operations Group wouldn’t havee if they did not have any concrete evidence.


    The 111 Special Operations Group was responsible for monitoring hostile activities carried out by spies.


    Titus’ rescue operation went too smoothly.


    It was so smooth that he felt that something was amiss. He was right.


    “Let them in,” Jasper ordered in a deep voice.


    Eight people from the 111 Special Operations Group stepped into his office. Their faces were solemn and unhappy. They showed the warrant to Jasper and said, “Someone reported that you had taken a list by force.”


    “What list?” Jasper did not know.


    One of the officers nced at the guard.


    Jasper waved his hand and said, “Leave us alone.”


    The guard knew that it was ssified information, so he didn’t dare to linger and left quickly. Heclosed the door behind him as he left.


    The officer continued, “It’s a list of the undercover agents around the world who are currently under the protection of the Ministry of Defence.”


    “Why would I want anything to do with it?” Jasper asked in return.


    “We suspect that you are an undercover spy for a foreign country.” The officer stated in a serious tone.


    “My father is the Vice President and I am the General, as well as the Chief of the Special Forces military region and one of the most popr candidates for the Presidency. Why would I be a spy?” Jasper responded directly.


    “I’m sorry, Chief. But we are just following orders,” said the head of the reviewing team.


    “Alright, be my guest,” Jasper said. He sat down on the sofa and rested his eyes.


    The officers started examining the room.


    The leader of the group apanied Jasper in the living room. His face was particrly serious. After all, Jasper’s identity was unusual.


    One of his officers walked out of the room where Titus was asleep. He held a vase in his hand and reported, “It’s hidden in the vase.”


    The leader took the list out from the vase and looked at Jasper. “I’m afraid I’ll have to ask you toe with us, Chief.”


    Jasper stared suspiciously at the leader and frowned, “I don’t even know what you’re holding. Are you sure that it’s the list you’re looking for?”


    “There is a special coating on the list. The paper was also specially made. I received a picture of what the list looks like before we came here.” The leader said.


    “Did your men put this in my vase to frame me?” Jasper snapped.


    The officer’s face turned pale immediately, “No way. I wouldn’t dare to do that. I couldn’t even get my hand on this list either. How could I even frame you?”


    “Pleasee with us, Chief. If you’re not a spy, your name will be cleared. But if you don’te with us now, there will be serious consequences,” the leader said.


    Jasper stood up and straightened his clothes. He took out his cellphone, dialed a number, and said briefly, “Take care of the child in my apartment. Wait for me till I’m back.”


    …


    Ste Grace fell asleep after the video call ended. It was already ten o’clock in the morning when she was woken up by Rond’s phone call.


    Ste sat up with a headache. She did not sleep wellst night. She answered the call as she rubbed her temples.


    “Are you at the police station now? I’m here.” Rond Cher asked politely.


    Ste recalled that she had to make a trip to the police station today. “I’m sorry, I’m on my way now.”


    Ste hung up and went to the bathroom. She sshed some cold water on her face to sober up. She brushed her teeth, washed her face, and put on some light makeup. Shebed her hair and gathered her belongings. Just as she was about to head out, her cellphone rang again.


    She didn’t recognize the number. so she suspected that it was from Frederick Addington. She declined the call immediately.


    Titus was already rescued. She wanted nothing to do with Frederick ever again.


    When his call was declined, Frederick was furious. A malicious look shed across his eyes. He snorted disdainfully, hatred filled his eyes.


    Ste was going to cast him away like he was nothing, right? Since that was the case, then he no longer needed to show any mercy.


    Frederick sent a malicious message to her. “Would you like to see Jasper die?”


    When Ste saw his message, her chest tightened. She quickly contacted Jasper.


    The call was connected but no one answered.


    She had a bad feeling and rang Frederick back.


    Frederick declined her call.


    Ste’s heart raced frantically. She called Frederick again, but he had already turned off his phone.


    Ste rushed out of the hotel in a trance and unblocked Frederick’s previous number. She dialed that number immediately.


    Frederick answered the phone and said in a strange voice, “Oh, you’ve unblocked my number. Do you not care what Jasper says anymore?”


    “Frederick Addington, you were the one who sent the text message, weren’t you? What do you mean? What are you about to do to Jasper?” Ste questioned, trying hard to contain the anger that was about to erupt.


    It was like he was stalking her everywhere. It was incredibly annoying.


    “I’ve warned you not to try anything funny. I have waited wholeheartedly for you for more than three years. How did you treat me in return?” Frederick was even angrier than Ste.


    “Rtionships cannot be forced. Didn’t I wait for you for three years too when you refused to look at me? Did I take any revenge? Did I hurt your woman?” Ste couldn’t stay calm.


    “That’s because you don’t have the ability to retaliate nor do you have the ability to hurt anyone. You were a coward.”


    “What on earth do you want? What have you done to Jasper?” Ste raised her voice.


    “When you told Jasper that Titus was in my hands, have you ever thought of the consequences? When you and Jasper schemed against me, you should have known that things would turn out like this. I am not someone you can mess and toy with. I’ll tell you now, Jasper Milton had been taken away by the 111 Special Operations Group. He will soon lose all his fame. If he’s lucky, he will only be stripped of his military status. Worst case scenario, he will be identified as a spy and he will be executed by shooting.” Frederickughed wickedly.


    “You’re spouting nonsense. How could Jasper be a spy?” Ste couldn’t believe it.


    He was the most righteous, responsible and dutiful soldier she had ever seen.


    How could he be a spy? She was more likely to believe that she was a spy than Jasper being one.


    “He stole an important name list from me and carried out questionable undercover actions. Isn’t that considered espionage? He wanted to take over a piece ofnd yesterday. Did you know that there were military weapons buried underneath thatnd?” Frederick asked with a smile.


    “There were military weapons underneath thend that he purchased yesterday? How could that be possible?” Ste was surprised.


    “Thend is located in Yale City. Since you’re in Yale City, feel free to check around. You should be able to see that thend is currently heavily guarded by armed forces, and they are in the process of uncovering those weapons. Once you’ve seen it, you will know whether I am lying or not.” Frederick continued firmly.Please check at N/?vel(D)rama.Org.


    Ste realized that Frederick was telling the truth. There was no reason for him to tell such an excessive lie. Her mind went nk instantly. She stumbled a few steps back, leaning against the wall…
