Chapter 160: New Information (3)
What could Curt say besides agreeing? His life was in the hands of the man before him. And with the intense pressure on his being at the moment, he could only nod his head weakly.
Eyes were on him, with Levin and Ace securely sitting beside him and focusing on him.
"Yes, Your Majesty," Curt responded; the pressure on him slightly lessened, even though it was still there.
With the interrogation finally starting, even Arren, who came just to watch the drama, couldn’t help but be more serious. Still, he was silent, obediently sitting beside Spade.
Spade, on the other hand, scrutinized the alpha that gave black intel a hard time. He admitted that he did have some skills. But all of that didn’t matter now; he needed to answer if he wanted to live. His tolerance for the members of this organization had always been low, from the very start.
"Let’s start with the most important and heavy topic." Spade started cutting to the chase, "Do you know the leader of the organization?" He asked, staring heavily at the alpha and watching his expressions; any minute changes in his face were all registered under Spade’s scrutiny.
For him, this was one of the most important questions and probably the heaviest as well. He didn’t want to go around in circles, and he already wanted to confirm this fact, so he could know what he could get from this interrogation even at the beginning.
Curt was taken aback by this direct question without batting an eyelid that the Emperor asked him, his startled expression was immediately shown on his face before he recovered and answered.
Under everyone’s gaze, he shook his head honestly. "I’m sorry, I don’t know who our leader is..." He paused and took a deep breath, choosing the right words. "His Excellency can only be met by the executives, and as a liaison, I’m not yet qualified to do so," he answered with a lower head, not daring to make eye contact with Spade.
