Chapter 574: So That’s How She Got Her Money!
"No, she took down two, the rest were sacrifices."Connor’s eyes reddened, "But she told me she never killed innocent people; all her targets were the ones you assigned!"
"Yes, after she came back, we interrogated her. She said those two were traitors who had leaked our mission secrets, which led to the sacrifice of those twenty people. There was indeed a traitor back then, but who exactly it was, we still haven’t figured out."
Talking about the tragic sacrifice of those years, Lucas Chambers’ voice also lowered, his expression solemn.
"What do you mean? Do you still suspect Natalie Niles is the traitor?"
Lucas’ eyes were sharp, "Connor, it’s very possible! Everyone else died; she was the only one who returned alive. Isn’t that suspicious?"
Connor clenched his fist and swung it at Lucas’ face, "Bullshit! She can’t be a traitor!"
Lucas dodged quickly, swearing in anger, "Why the hell are you hitting me? I’m not the one who accused her; it’s the team’s suspicion. Hey, Master Hound, stop it!"
"Master Cat, if you dare slander her again, I’ll mess up your face! You’ll never find a wife!"
Connor lowered his hand, eyes red with rage.
They used to be little followers of Harry Hunter, back when the Chambers Family wasn’t as powerful as it is now. They were looked down upon by many, called ’Master Cat and Master Hound’ around Harry Hunter.
After a bout of fighting, Lucas didn’t stay angry. He wrapped an arm around Connor’s shoulders, "Master Hound, it’s the team’s suspicion. They have no evidence, Natalie’s mental resilience is astonishing; no interrogation revealed anything about her, she..."
"You subjected her to harsh interrogation?!"
"No! Let me finish. Later, the team sent her on various highly dangerous missions, partly to test her, partly because she’s genuinely skilled. She’s incredible in solving problems for the team, which is why she was allowed to retire. Otherwise, she’d have to stay in the unit for life."
Connor angrily grabbed Lucas by the collar, "Why are you all such bastards? Just because she came back alive, you don’t value her life? Sending her wherever it’s dangerous, is she not human? Where is she now? Don’t tell me you’ve sent her out again!"
"No, every time she completed a mission, it was so mysterious. The team she was with never survived many, so we had to keep observing!"
"Nonsense! You yourself said those were highly dangerous missions; the sacrifice rate would obviously be high! She survived because she’s smart; if she were a bit dumber, she’d have ended up a pile of bones!"
"That’s why the team wasn’t unfair to her; the bonuses were in the millions, and she’s the richest one in our team now."
"The Niles Family isn’t poor. Her parents’ educational institution has already expanded overseas. What good is money to her!"
Connor swore, suddenly thinking of the thirty million Natalie had spent on Cora Ginger, and a wave of sharp pain hit his heart!
So that’s how she got the money!
Money won with her life, how could it be spent like this!
"Wait, hold on! You didn’t investigate her parents too, did you?"
"Of course we did; we checked out the whole family. Didn’t find any issues, which is why she could retire safely!"
Connor was so angry he was about to burst. Not to mention, with Johan Niles being like that, does he even need investigation? He’s like a blank piece of paper!
"Where’s Natalie Niles? I want to see my girlfriend! Being with you annoys me!"
"Well... she’s been confined."
