King's Awakening-Chapter 424 - : Appearance of the Northern Territory Command!
Chapter 424: Chapter 424: Appearance of the Northern Territory Command!
Just when the staff began to grow suspicious and doubtful, White Mitchell marched Lincoln Robert right in from outdoors, dropping him with a thump off to one side.
The narrowly escaped Lincoln, fearfully stole a glance at White Mitchell. Although he despised him to the bone, yearning to skin the man alive and eat his flesh, he did not have the nerve to breathe heavily when meeting White Mitchell’s gaze, signs of his lingering fear clearly visible.
Meanwhile, in the executive office of the Robert Group, Caleb Robert, and his secretary sat quietly, watching the whole process unfold.
At that moment, when she saw White Mitchell hurl Lincoln out of the window, the secretary couldn’t help but swallow hard, her heart caught in her throat.
She thought to herself if White Mitchell would deal with her in the same way, she definitely wouldn’t last three seconds.
Seeing Lincoln confessing everything, the secretary’s heart pounded with anxiety. She fearfully turned to Caleb, “Mr. Anthony, do you know this friend of Miss Sana? Do you know his background?
Now that even Mr. Lincoln has fallen, will we be next?
What if Miss Sana finds out about all the things I’ve done behind her back, then I…”
By the end of her statement, the secretary’s face was involuntarily tinged with the color of defeat, beads of cold sweat constantly trickling down. She appeared fear-stricken to the extreme.
Seeing this, Caleb furrowed his brows in deep thought.
The secretary’s worries were not baseless. This young man that Sana had introduced, so tough and thunderous, was utterly unpredictable.
Even for himself, let alone the secretary, he might not be able to withstand such tactics.
Moreover, he knew nothing of any other persuasive methods this young man might have at his disposal.
It was clear that Sana hadn’t brought over some virtuous characters to assist her.
He really didn’t know where Sana found this demon who could toy with people’s hearts at will, but he seemed way too comfortable doing it.
However, in front of the secretary, Caleb could not show too much unease, lest they threw themselves into chaos before Sana had even made her move.
Thinking of this, Caleb spoke slowly, “Don’t worry. This guy that Sana brought over may have some skills, but he’s just a small-time clown, beneath our concern.
Don’t forget, we have prepared thoroughly. As soon as the people from the Northern Territory Command show up, not just Sana Robert but even her hired helper will pay a heavy price.
They may be feeling smug now, but they’re going to weep hard when the time comes. So relax, don’t disrupt your own footing. And don’t forget, if I fall, you won’t be faring any better, Sana will not spare the one who betrayed her.”
Upon hearing his words, the secretary couldn’t help but shudder, her eyes watching Caleb more warily than before.
Clearly, Caleb was threatening her.
If she implicated him, she’d definitely come to a nasty end.
But she was only human too, she was afraid too. Didn’t she see even Lincoln who has been so calculating for so long, has been defeated?
Compared to Lincoln, she was worse.
How could she withstand any of that? She couldn’t even take a hit to the head.
The secretary incessantly complained in her heart, only hoping for the arrival of the people from Northern Territory Command.
Just as Caleb and the secretary were hoping for the Northern Territory Command to arrive, a squad of the Northern Territory Command, who were still waiting downstairs, rushed up as soon as they received information from white Mitchell.
To put on a convincing act, every detail must be attended to meticulously. Today, White Mitchell was determined to root out all the treacherous elements hidden in the Robert Group, all at once.
He was well aware that the difficulties Sana currently faced certainly could not be attributed solely to Lincoln. There were certainly other people behind all this.
Just as Cooper had once speculated, Lincoln Robert and Caleb Robert were the most suspicious.
At this moment, since Lincoln had confessed, only Caleb needed to be dealt with.
Before long, a ten–man squad of Northern Territory Command, clad in white uniforms, appeared in front of everyone.
Northern Territory Command?
The people present had mixed emotions upon seeing this.
They had those who were happy, but also those who were afraid.
Upon seeing the people from the Northern Territory Command show up, Lincoln Robert, as if he had just seen his savior, eagerly rushed over to them.
“Sir, I want to report an incident. Someone here has committed an act of violence. I was almost killed! Look at my fingers – and look at the others too, they’re all his doing. That’s right; it was this outrageously audacious brat!” Lincoln immediately pointed at White Mitchell.
Not only that, Lincoln also overturned all the truths he had just confessed and defended himself vigorously by saying, “Sir, you don’t understand how incredibly audacious this bastard is. He’s just out of control.
He threatened me, forcing me to admit to something I didn’t do. This is clearly a case of a man beaten into a confession.
Such a wrongdoer should be arrested immediately and stopped from doing any further harm…”
Hearing Lincoln’s words, those white-uniformed soldiers remained silent, only covertly glancing at White Mitchell, seeking his next instruction.
White Mitchell, seeing this, signaled them not to reveal his identity, but to follow the established rules and procedures.
Upon receiving the command, the white-clad soldiers immediately asked, “We’ve received a report from a member of the public indicating that some people in the Robert Group are engaged in illegal dealings with someone of an unknown status. Who’s the person in charge here?”
Before Sana could come forward, Lincoln pointed at Sana and said, “Sir, it’s her. The person you’re looking for is her. If you’re referring to someone of unknown status, it must be this young man. He is not a part of the Robert Group.
In fact, I have never met him before. Furthermore, he is ruthless. Look at my fingers; they were broken by him.
Quick, arrest him. Don’t let him remain at large any longer.”
Hearing Lincoln’s incessant chatter, the lead soldier’s face hardened. He glanced at Lincoln and said coldly, “Am I talking to you? Are you the person in charge here? Do we need you to instruct us on how to do our jobs?
Your actions are quite suspicious. Stand off to the side and behave. As for those lying on the ground, stop playing dead. All of you should line up over there and await your fate.
If any of you dare to leave without permission, don’t blame my bullets for being blind!”
Upon hearing this…
The color drained from Lincoln’s face. He immediately clammed up, looking as obedient as a little chick.
However, at this time, Caleb who was watching from the office showed a puzzled expression upon seeing the attitudes of the white-uniformed soldiers, “What’s going on? Why didn’t they arrest that brat?”
