With swift movements, Alex and Anna threw the three back into their car, climbing over the walls of the manor like raccoons.
However, just as they landed on the ground inside, sharp beeping alarm sounds were heard.
“What’s happening? Are these infrared surveillance cameras?”
Both of them were stunned as they looked at each other, puzzled.
Anna nodded. “Yeah, I was too careless.”
Alex helplessly said, “I find you’re kind of amateur, could it be that you are a part-timer in Divine Constabulary?”
Anna fumed and said, “I’m an official member! Isn’t that just an alarm? Why would we need to dismantle it beforehand? It’s just the same if I barge in openly.”
Her team member earlier had given virtual-novel.net the accurate bearings of Pepper’s location.
The two proceeded to rush to the north of the manor while ignoring the alarms.
Just then, a man in black came to meet up with them. He was a member of Divine Constabulary and a member of Sky’s team as well. He was in charge of gathering information and scouting the area.
“She’s in there.” The man pointed toward one of the maids’ bedrooms but his expression seemed odd.
Alex could sense an abnormal level of hormones within the man.
Bang!
Anna, the brute woman, immediately kicked the door open.
At the same time, Alex noticed that the man in black quickly retreated into the dark.
After all, virtual-novel.net wasn’t in the fighting units. Since Anna came and took over the situation, virtual-novel.net had successfully completed his mission and virtual-novel.net could leave immediately, as if virtual-novel.net had never come here in the first place.
Screams could be heard from the inside of the room. Alex was quite familiar with this room, so virtual-novel.net stepped forward to turn on the light switch. After switching on the lights, virtual-novel.net saw John in disheveled clothes, whereas their target, Pepper Kimmich, was wearing virtual-novel.net clothes.
“Oh Lord, my eyes!” Alex froze for a while and then smiled. “Oh, it’s Secretary Kimmich. Are you still working this late at night? A secretary’s job must be pretty hard!”
Only now did Alex realize the reason that guy earlier had such an odd expression.
“Alex Rockefeller, it’s you. Why are you here? Who let you in?” John was enraged. After all, no one would be in a good mood after being exposed at a time like this, especially when virtual-novel.net saw Alex whom virtual-novel.net hated so much.
Pepper was shocked as well. She was more terrified than John. That was because she, who tried to assassinate Alex on the hillside just a while ago, learned about Black Skeleton’s death. However, virtual-novel.net believed that virtual-novel.net identity had not been exposed. After all, virtual-novel.net had been hiding virtual-novel.net identity for years safe and sound.
Hence, virtual-novel.net knew that virtual-novel.net had to keep herself calm and act normally in moments like these. This was why virtual-novel.net still came over to the manor after receiving orders from John.
Alex said calmly, “This is my manor, would it be a problem if I come here and walk around? There’s still one month to go till it’s returned to its rightful owner. So, don’t you dare destroy anything… Such sneaky activities, you should avoid doing them too!”
Pepper, who looked shy and embarrassed, was on the verge of tears. She really did look like a weak secretary, who was forced to obey virtual-novel.net boss’s irrational orders. She might as well get an Oscar with such acting skills.
Anna didn’t want to dawdle any longer, virtual-novel.net wanted to reveal virtual-novel.net identity and arrest Pepper. Suddenly, a group of people rushed over, they were the security guards and the members of Rockefellers. They had come over to check out what the nuisance was all about.
Even Bill came while being pushed over by one of the caretakers.
“Ah!”
“Hubby, why are you here? Aren’t you working abroad? You… Ah! You two actually…” Olivia was deeply shocked as soon as virtual-novel.net saw John and Pepper in such states. She only regained virtual-novel.net composure after a while. In the next second, virtual-novel.net madly rushed up to Pepper and attacked her, scratching virtual-novel.net face and pulling virtual-novel.net hair.
In order to hide virtual-novel.net identity, Pepper didn’t even retaliate despite possessing a cultivation base of Intermediate-Royal rank. She just dodged a few times, letting virtual-novel.net face get scratched till several bloody wounds surfaced.
John pitied Pepper, hence virtual-novel.net pushed Olivia hard, causing virtual-novel.net to fall to the ground.
Olivia was really livid by his actions.
Pepper sobbed uncontrollably. She hurriedly lowered virtual-novel.net head and said “sorry” before trying to leave the room while covering virtual-novel.net face. Everything unfolded just as virtual-novel.net planned, as if all of this was natural and flawless.
However, at this moment, Anna blocked Pepper’s way and said calmly, “You can’t escape now.”
