Chapter 29: A Wild Card
"Boss, I didn’t know you were a stalker now," Tyron jested as he pulled the car over, stopping them near the cab that Diana Jones had just exited.
Alexander’s grip on the tablet he was holding tightened. He had received the report on Diana Jones, and everything about her identity seemed legitimate. However, he was still not convinced. That mole... She had told him that it was waterproof, it was fake. It felt like a deliberate clue she’d left just to mess with him.
"Boss, you look like you’re still not convinced. Do you think she’s Mrs. Lancaster just doing some undercover work? Bold lawyers sometimes do that for their cases nowadays," Tyron suggested with a reminder. "Also, remember that report about her internship? She used some disguises to help a senior at Smith Law Firm solve a case."
Alexander didn’t reply, his eyes fixed on Rain as she exited the cab and entered a modest apartment building. It would seem that his assistant noticed it as well.
"It must be so uncomfortable living there with such little space..." Tyron commented.
"Let’s go, Tyron," Alexander grunted as he closed his eyes, resting his head against his seat. "I feel like my head’s going to burst at this rate..."
"That’s the only logical conclusion, Boss, assuming you still can’t believe they’re two different people," Tyron suggested. "I think Mr. Chairman is the best person to help with this. He has access to all the sensitive files. Maybe he can decipher what’s going on between Diana Jones and Mrs. Lancaster."
He slightly nodded at the observation. His father had been part of an elite team long before he was even born. A high-ranking officer in the Global Intelligence Service (GIS), his father was a part of a civilian foreign intelligence service that gathered, processed, and analyzed national security information. The man had conducted countless undercover operations and still sponsored GIS in the shadows even now.
In fact, not many knew about this except for his father’s immediate family and Tyron, whose father had also been part of that elite team.
