Chapter 219: He Called
Xavier smirked, having already been expecting the call from the other person on the line.
Usually, his personal phone number was tightly secured, with multiple layers of protection ensuring no one could reach him unless he personally shared it. He had taken great care to keep it private, knowing the importance of controlling who had access to him.
However, the number he was able to use to get through to Xavier wasn’t protected. A trainee hacker could easily retrieve it, which was why Xavier wasn’t too surprised when he heard his voice for the first time in many years.
Quickly, Xavier placed the call on a loudspeaker, so that everyone else could hear.
"You’d better stop your killing, you bastard! If you want to come at us, then do it like a man. Don’t go around hurting innocent people!" Kace yelled.
A smile graced the other person’s lips, stretching it so further wide it made him look like the devil’s replica.
"Who said they’re innocent people? No one on earth is innocent. I was just helping clean the dirt around." Then he sighed. "I thought you guys would appreciate my effort, but you’re yelling at me as if I killed an innocent person," he defended.
Both Maxwell and Kace shared a frustrated look before Kace palmed his forehead in an even bigger frustration.
"Why did you call?" Xavier questioned, giving Maxwell a glance and the latter immediately knew what Xavier wanted him to do, so he nodded in response.
