Chapter 378
Carol would naturally think of ways to get Simeon out of trouble-she only wanted Dexter to make his stand clear.
Upset at Dexter, I walked out of the room to clear my head.
"Hello, Mrs. Black," Ewan greeted me politely when he saw me.
I glanced at him. I felt less hostility toward him knowing that he was someone Dexter had planted in the Rebels. "Carol is a lunatic. You all need to prepare for that."
Genome Society was making its final push, and so was the Rebels.
Carol was too full of herself. Without Simeon around, Genome Society might completely eradicate the Rebels next. There was even the possibility that there were people from Genome Society within the Rebels itself. "Now that they’ve captured Joel, they shouldn’t be bothering the Rebels for now. Instead, they’ll likely use him to threaten Carol," Ewan speculated.
Most people would think that Genome Society would surely hold back and threaten them using their leverage. But would they act according to what most people would think?
Perhaps they might just do the opposite. They might attack when the Rebels had let their guard down while focused on rescuing Joel.
Anything might happen.
"Get Carol to strengthen the security here and set up surveillance within a one-mile radius from the orphanage. Any suspicious cars that show up should be tracked and investigated. "I requested Ewan to remind Carol.
"You’re not the one in charge here." Carol walked out with a mocking smile. ’You don’t really think you’re that smart, do you? You’re just a genetically edited experimental subject who’s no different from those lab dogs and white mice in the laboratory."
