Leilon's headquarters was attacked. Including Kelly, senior agents, and 11 staff members, all died under the gunfire of the attackers. For a commercial spy, the other party's method of revenge was undoubtedly a little too cruel.
Luke was sitting in his manor as he looked at the report on the table with a gloomy expression.
What he cared about wasn't Leilon's heavy losses, nor was it the person who always did the dirty work for him that died in the attack, but whether Future Group knew the mastermind was BHP.
Although when he hired Leilon to investigate Future Mining, he didn't reveal the employer's information. But based on the nature of these private detective companies, it was hard to guarantee that they wouldn't secretly investigate the employer's information in case they were sold after the mission was completed. Since their business wasn't protected by the law.
If Future Group discovered that BHP was behind this, it would undoubtedly affect the cooperation between the two parties.
Luke rubbed his temples with a headache.
Other than that, there was one more thing he didn't understand. How did Future Group lock onto Leilon's company's coordinates in such a short period of time and execute this revenge on the other side of the world so quickly?
Did Future Group still have hidden strength that they haven't exposed?
If that was the case, BHP would have to reconsider their strategy against Future Group.
…
When the mission completion report was placed in front of him, he didn't feel too surprised.
With the aid of optical invisibility, the Ghost Agents didn't face too much of a challenge when they carried out their first overseas mission. Compared to the agents of CIB and other intelligence organizations, the commercial espionage of Leilon Private Detective Company was more experienced, but their combat abilities were mediocre.
He believed that after this warning, BHP's people would change their attitude and re-evaluate their relationship with a cooperative attitude.
Li Jinyan was charged with commercial espionage by Future Group and sentenced to life imprisonment by the Coro Island District Court. Of course, Jiang Chen could kill him, but that would be too easy on him. He believed that his pretty face would be very popular in prison.
As for Sophie, after hearing the news that Li Jinyan had been sentenced, she realized how stupid and dangerous what she had done was. She spent several peaceful days in anxiety and anxiety. However, just when she thought the incident was over, Yang Yuan returned home drunk after work one day.
Looking at the expression on her boyfriend's face, she already faintly realized that something was wrong.
Without any prelude, Yang Yuan said.
"Let's break up."
"Wh … Why?" Sophie looked at him incredulously, looking at this boyfriend who followed her everything.
Yang Yuan didn't say anything and threw the phone in front of her. In the photos and videos in the anonymous email, she was the female lead, and the male lead was Li Jinyan, who was already in prison. Looking at the glaring images, Sophie could only feel her face turning red, but her hands and feet were as cold as if they were soaked in cold water.
It was only when Yang Yuan proposed to break up with her that she realized that if she left him, she would be nothing. Only then did she realize how good he was.
"Me." Sophie's hand that was holding onto the phone couldn't stop trembling. She raised her head and looked at Yang Yuan pleadingly. "I'm sorry, Ah Yuan. I, I —"
However, Yang Yuan didn't want to listen to her explanation. He suppressed his anger and calmly spat out the word.
"Get out."
Yang Yuan didn't know why he was so calm. The breakup process was so peaceful and he didn't scold her at all.
When he saw her get on the plane, he noticed the regret and reluctance on her face. But what he couldn't believe was that until the end, he didn't have the slightest thought of making her stay.
Looking at the departing plane, the scenes of the past flashed before his eyes like a film. When the last ash fell, he crushed the cigarette on the trash can as if he was crushing the memory.
He threw away the cigarette and left.
The anonymous email was sent by Jiang Chen. It was the best solution he could come up with. Future Group only sued Li Jinyan and let the accomplice Sophie go. It was also the last bit of face Yang Yuan had. The two of them broke up peacefully. From his perspective, it was the most suitable ending he could think of.
The night Sophie left, Yang Yuan called to invite him for a drink. He accepted the invitation without hesitation. But when he drove to his home, he realized that he was already half drunk.
"Do you still feel bad?"
"Burp — I'm fine … Sorry, I drank by myself."
"No problem." Jiang Chen took the bottle from Yang Yuan's hand and poured himself a glass.
Jiang Chen originally thought his old friend would complain, but he didn't say a single word of complaint. Instead, he just chatted about his university days. In the end, he looked at Jiang Chen with drunken eyes and said in a serious tone while hiccupping.
"Thank you."
"What are you thanking me for? You paid for the drink." Jiang Chen grinned and glanced at him.
Yang Yuan smiled and kept his words of gratitude in his heart. He didn't say anything else. He was grateful that Jiang Chen let Sophie go and allowed him to choose a peaceful ending to their relationship. He was grateful that Jiang Chen didn't pursue his negligence at work, and he was grateful that Jiang Chen could drink with him as a friend.
Since in this unfamiliar country, he was the only person he knew.
Just like that, the two of them drank one glass after another until they couldn't drink anymore.
In the middle of the night, Ayesha drove over and half-carried Jiang Chen back to the car.
When they got home, she didn't care about the strong smell of alcohol on him. She quietly took off his clothes, wiped the sweat off his body, and put him on the bed.
Ayesha looked at Jiang Chen's sleeping face as a gentle smile appeared on her face. She gently kissed him on the lips, pulled up the blanket, curled up beside him, and fell asleep as usual.
…
The next morning, Jiang Chen crawled out of bed with a hangover.
He didn't plan to drink so much yesterday, but he couldn't stop. Based on the schedule, today was the day of the ship's delivery, and he would attend the ceremony. Although there wouldn't be any media, it was not appropriate to inspect the returning navy soldiers with the smell of alcohol.
He swallowed the hangover pill with water and washed up. Just as Jiang Chen finished the breakfast Ayesha brought to the table, Natasha knocked on the door.
As soon as he opened the door, Natasha sniffed and looked at Jiang Chen mockingly.
"You drank?"
"Mhmm, I drank a bit last night. It's fine, "Jiang Chen said vaguely.
"Do you need perfume? I can lend it to you. "
Jiang Chen stared at the mischievous Natasha as he walked to the garage. Ayesha, who had changed into formal clothes, locked the door, and jogged to catch up with Jiang Chen. When she passed by Natasha, she looked at her cautiously.
To the girl's cautious look, Natasha only grinned and teased her in a low voice.
"Don't look at me like that, I won't eat him."
She shook her head, turned around, and got into her car.
