The CEO's Wife Is Super Charming-Chapter 325 - 322: The Decision
South City.
"We’ve received orders from above! The operation will be executed tonight! Everyone must stay on standby in the team, no one is allowed to be absent!" Galen Collins sternly announced in the conference room.
The team members stood up in unison, "Yes!"
...
―――The next day.
[South City Special Report, today, South City witnessed the largest crime syndicate in its history! South City Will Global Films and South City Roland Agent Co., Ltd. are suspected of three major crimes and human trafficking...]
This became the topic that major media outlets scrambled to report.
Elliana Lyle locked herself alone in the hotel room, refusing to see anyone. She hid in the corner of the bed, clutching her head, trying to calm herself down.
So what if Roland and Will Global Films have fallen?
But the main culprit escaped!
Even George Lyle was released early, now nowhere to be found!
She was teetering on the brink of collapse, trying hard to make the right choices.
Eventually, the scales in her heart tipped toward what she deemed "right" until it tipped all the way.
She lifted her head, wiped the tears from her face, stood up without hesitation, picked up her phone, and made a video call to Luna Sutton in XRB.
"I’ve made up my mind." She said.
From the video, it seemed Luna was already in a car, and not just any car, she was wearing protective gear.
Luna smiled at her in the video, "I’ve been on the road for a while, don’t worry, sis, I’ve got it handled for you."
"You..." She didn’t know what to say, and in the end, she just said, "Be safe, nothing must go wrong."
"Have you been crying?"
Luna didn’t respond to her, instead, she changed the subject.
She emphasized again, "I said, no accidents." She choked on almost every word.
She...had never truly seen the outside world, so for her, the outside world was unknown and dangerous.
The world is vast, but only "home" is the safest.
"Alright, alright, what are you worried about? I know what I’m doing, you just stay home and relax. I’ll go out and steal a dragon, just make sure no one steals the house." Luna said with a cheerful smile, as if it was as casual as going out for a meal.
This made Elliana start to doubt, she began to wonder if what she was doing was right or wrong.
But she knew, in her heart, there was a voice screaming out that this was wrong, stop now!
But... she seemed unable to speak as if something was sealing her lips shut.
Finally, she took a deep breath and said, "Luna, forget it!"
"Forget it? What do you mean forget it?" Luna couldn’t help but frown.
She said with unusual seriousness, "Don’t go, don’t go!"
Danger was nothing she feared anymore, but she feared danger coming upon those she cared about.
"No way, there’s no turning back once you’ve set the arrow. You just stay at home safely, leave everything to me, got it." Luna had no intention of listening, showing a streak of stubbornness.
This made her angry too, her eyes red as she shouted at the person on the screen, "Luna Sutton, you’re fired, you don’t have to work for me anymore! Go back!"
Luna’s face gradually turned cold, and finally, the two fell silent.
When she tried to speak again, she only heard Luna say very seriously, "I think... I’m not doing this for an employer, I’m doing it for you, my friend, Luna Sutton."
With those words, the video call was disconnected and could no longer be reached.
