Vivian was referring to a hub within another hub inside of SK.This special hub was located in the outskirts, but the entrance to enter it was inside their company’s main hub, which was operated by Luposians. It was impossible to conceal a secret forever so it was only natural that someone would catch wind of what was happening.Hearing this, Adrian asked, “Do you know where the entrance to this hub is?”Vivian shook her head. “I’m not sure, but I know that it’s called the Scorpio Hub. The Luposians inside the company are very tight-lipped about it so we locals have no idea what’s going on inside. What we do know is that the entrance to Scorpio Hub is from Hub Four.”‘Sounds like the weapons I’m looking for are inside Scorpio Hub,’ Adrian thought.“Viv, you should stop working at SK. Also, could you please take me to the hub where I can find Scorpio Hub? I need to get inside so that I can apprehend them,” Adrian said.Vivian fell silent for a while, hesitating. After a while, she

Vivian, who was from an ordinary family, could feel how spectacular Jewel Road was and could not help taking in the scenery for as long as she could.She looked out the car window and saw all the luxurious villas along the way, her heart racing. ‘I can’t imagine any woman who wouldn’t want to live such a life.’Of course, this included Vivian herself.As the car pulled into One Jewel Road, Vivian quickly got out and said, “Wow… Do you live here?”Adrian smiled after getting out of his car and said, “Yes, I only just moved in recently. Let’s head inside, Viv. I’ve invited a few others to join us. They’ll be here soon.”“What? But… Hang on. We were in such a rush that I forgot to bring a gift. Also, is your wife home?” Vivian seemed slightly frightened and embarrassed as she spoke. She was in an unfamiliar environment, which made her feel uncomfortable.“I’m happy that you’re here. There’s no need for a gift. Sam’s at the office, but my mother and little sister are home.”Vivian h

Without a shadow of a doubt, that voice belonged to Reiss.Sure enough, she and Chuck were carrying a barbeque pit up the stairs while also carrying some materials to start a fire. On top of that, they had some lamb and vegetables for the barbeque as well.They were sweating buckets by the time they arrived at the sky garden.Vivian was startled when she saw them. “Chuck? Reiss?”Chuck and Reiss both raised their heads at the same time and looked at Vivian.Reiss, who was instantly able to recognize the woman before her, looked surprised as she asked, “Ms. Vivian?”Vivan was overjoyed and ran toward them. “Chuck! Reiss! It really is you!”“What are you doing here, Ms. Vivian?” Reiss sounded surprised too. After that, she saw Adrian, who was standing close by, and said, “I get it now, Adrian’s the one who brought you here.”Vivian turned around and asked, “Are they the ones you were talking about, Adrian?”“Yeah, it’s them—your former class monitor and the student who gave you

“Come on, Viv. I’m starving! I’ll help you, Juno.”Reiss helped Juno get out of the pool and to the dining area. The three ladies took their seats while Adrian brought over a carton of beer.Reiss opened one up and clinked bottles with Vivian. Soon after, Rue brought up a few plates of ravioli and they all sat around the table to enjoy their food.As the oldest amongst the youngsters, Vivian smiled and said, “Who would’ve thought we’d see each other again here after seven years? I’ve got a few more friends in Swallowston now. Cheers, everyone!”“Cheers!”The group clinked glasses and enjoyed the atmosphere, chatting the day away.Vivian could not help but shed a few tears when she heard about Chuck’s ordeal. It was only then she realized how each and every one of them had their own hardships. Chuck, Reiss, Adrian… They had all gone through extremely painful experiences.In comparison, Vivian’s life was much calmer, albeit not that great.After chatting for a long time, they sta

After clinking glasses, they continued to eat and chat.Time soon flew by, and soon, it was evening. Samantha and Joanna returned from work just as Adrian was about to take Vivian to SK.When they got downstairs, Samantha was combing her hair in the living room and Joanna was working overtime with her laptop on the sofa. Samantha knew that Adrian had guests over so she had chosen not to head upstairs as not to disturb them.When she saw them coming downstairs, she said, “Chubbs, Reiss? You’re the ones Adrian said were going to be here?”Chuck said, “You’re back, Sam.”Meanwhile, Reiss said, “We’re really sorry for bothering you again, Sam.”Samantha merely smiled and asked when she saw Vivian, “And you are?”Vivian walked over and reached out her hand, “You must be Samantha. Hello, my name is Vivian Arce.”Samantha shook Vivian’s hand.“She’s our former homeroom teacher, Sam.” Chuck introduced them.“Hello, Ms. Vivian.”Vivian smiled and said, “I’ve heard so much about you.

However, Adrian was surprised when he saw that Internal Affairs had gotten involved.‘They didn’t make a single move when Mandy was held hostage before. Yet, they’ve taken such swift action and exerted their authority over a few dead Luposians, even placing SK on lockdown for an investigation. That’s rather efficient of them.‘Still, why would Internal Affairs be working for the Luposians? Or are they working for a local?’Hearing this, Vivian felt shocked and curious upon hearing what Luca said. However, she had no plans of going home. Not when she was here for a purpose.“Luca, there’s something urgent I need to do but I left a very important document in my office. I need to get inside for a while, please.”“It’s really dangerous right now, Viv. The murderer might be close by so it won’t be safe for you to be inside. Why don’t you wait until this is all over?”Without hesitation, Vivian rejected his suggestion. “No, it’s a document that’s very important to me on a personal leve

“Aah!!!”Vivian was dumbfounded when she heard the sound and her face turned bright red. Bram was shocked and immediately pulled the plug on his computer, his face also reddened.With a frown on her face, Vivian said, “Why are you watching such stuff when you’re supposed to be on duty? I’m going to deduct your salary, you shameless man!”Bram, the chubby man, gathered his thoughts and calmed himself as he let off a few light coughs. He looked at Vivian with a huge smile. “Ms. Vivian, what brings you here so late at night? I thought you went home already. Why are you still here?”Vivian frowned even harder. Bram was her subordinate and had so far been very obedient. Hence, she was surprised to find him watching lewd videos when he was supposed to be on his night shift.On company property, no less!“Are you itching for a beating?” Vivian gritted her teeth angrily.Bram chuckled in embarrassment and said, “Please tell me whatever it is you need me to do for you, Ms. Vivian. I’ll

‘Sounds like something’s definitely going on with SK.’At that thought, Adrian asked, “How did you find out about all this?“The previous hub manager told me but we all kept our mouths shut and pretended to not know about its existence. You two better not tell anyone else about this or all three of us will be in a lot of trouble.”“But since you know all this, we should head inside and take a look. Lead the way, Bram. Your chance at a huge promotion is right in front of you,” Vivian urged.“Lead the way? Are you mad, Ms. Vivian? I value my life too much to do such a thing. Unlike you, I’ve never slept with anyone before.“Unless…”Bram then stared at Vivian.“Do you have a death wish?” Vivian grabbed Bram’s ear after saying this.Panicking, Bram said, “W-wait! I was only joking! Please let go of my ear!”Vivian released Bram and said, “Enough jokes. Do you know who this man is, Bram?”Bram took a look at Adrian before Vivian continued, “This is War Legate Draco!”“Pfft! Why

Bram picked up his jacket and put it on as he strode out of his office. He then rushed toward the hub while nobody was looking, with Adrian and Vivian following closely behind.“I may know where the entrance to Scorpio Hub is but we’re going to need a Luposian’s ID card to get inside, sir. I’ll take you two there to have a look. We’ll think of something when we get there.”Soon, Bram brought Adrian and Vivian to the deepest parts of the hub. Inside were countless shipments containing items of all varieties. He pulled open one of the racks and lo and behold, there was indeed a door disguised as a wall.“Here it is. This is where the Luposians come and go. This hub is usually locked shut so nobody can come in and out of this place. You’ll need an ID card to open it up.”“Do you mean this?” Adrian took out a card from his pocket.When Bram saw this, he smiled and said, “Holy sh*t! Where did you get that, sir? That’s exactly what we need to get in!”Adrian replied, “I swiped it from

A man in a suit ran inside anxiously as he yelled.This middle-aged man was none other than Tanner Dunn.The Luposian higher-ups began to check the data on the computer. A staff member quickly typed something on the keyboard to bring up a video feed. “Mr. Tanner, some people have used a card belonging to one of the security guards who was murdered this afternoon and entered Scorpio Hub. They’re currently in the tunnel.”Very soon, the video feed showed up on the screen, revealing three people inside.Tanner said, “Zoom in.”Everyone got a huge shock when the video was enlarged.“That’s Vivian Arce. She’s an employee. And that’s Bram Rivera, the hub manager. But I don’t recognize the other man with them. He’s not from our company,” someone said in surprise.Tanner took a deep breath when he saw this. Gritting his teeth, he said, “Have our men apprehend Vivian’s family. Contact them and tell them to retreat this instant. Also, send our men to the tunnel to capture them. Tell the p
