Dark Revenge Of An Unwanted Wife: The Twins Are Not Yours!

Chapter 185: At The Headquarters V

"Where are you going?" Heronica asked, her eyes narrowing quizzically as Athena stood up, as Aiden followed

her; as they turned toward the black heavy metal door.

Athena and Aiden swiveled to face the criminals, whose recent revelations had rattled them more than they

cared to admit as the seconds had ticked by.

Their previously formidable defenses were crumbling, and if they were not out of here soon enough, the duo

would know that they had been played.

Athena believed that if she stayed behind and kept questioning them, it would only be a matter of tbefore

her trap was found out.

"We are leaving to meet with the director. There are sthings that need to be discussed concerning the

matter at hand and your place of rest until we decide what to do with you." She lied, meeting Heronica’s gaze

steadily.

"Even though you have shown you can be truthful, you are still an evil criminal, just like Morgan. Who knows,

maybe the black cells would be the best option at this point."

"The black cells? But we have been forthright; the lie detector has proved that! You can trade us to our boss; I'm

sure you have something that you want from him!" Heronica shouted, refusing to accept the black cells as a way

to spend the rest of her life.

Based on the words of the boss, it would be better that he was tied to a stone and thrown into the sea than to be

held in the darker levels of the black cells. Safe to say, that place was evil, just as it was unknown to them.

The boss never mentioned how he knew for sure that the place existed. But when he had been shaken while

watching the court case, when Alfonso and Fiona had been sentenced there before Ewan’s intervention, she had

been sure they existed. And now this woman wanted to put her there?

No! She wouldn't risk it!

"We can tell you more if you want. Just ask the questions."

The two criminals, panting and visibly shaken now, had revealed the gang's location and activities, but Athena

knew better. Ethics would prevent them from providing any genuinely useful information if she didn’t scare them.

Without the lie detector, they could easily manipulate her off their tracks. Yet, a question popped into her head.

"How are you people able to be free from the virus when you are always handling it?"

"We are vaccinated against it, obviously. We are injected with a drug every week. | don’t know the name," Cole

answered.

Athena folded her lips. "I will think about this matter and prepare my questions. For now, just stay put." She said,

before nodding to Aiden. It was tto go.

But before they could leave the room, Heronica called her back again. "What about this device? Since you are

not questioning us at the moment, can you take it away?"

Athena paused in her movements, but she didn’t turn. "I think its current position is the best. | just hope you two

will keep quiet and not speak lies to each other." She said with a chuckle before leaving the place, followed

closely by Aiden.

Outside the closed door, Athena pressed the black button after seeing they really were keeping quiet. She

pressed it twice, nodding in satisfaction when she heard their screams.

"Won't 160 volts kill them?" Aiden asked.

"Nah. They will survive," She said, walking slowly in the well-lit corridor, a bit lost in thought, feeling the heavy

weight of the revelations they had just gotten on her shoulders.

Hopefully, Alvarez would be more open to discussing a way they would need to get rid of the gang, which had

grown more than she had anticipated.

As she walked, she inhaled softly and slowly to ease the ache in her heart and head, seeing as her drugs were

back in her hotel room.

"Who do you think is behind this madness?" Aiden asked a few minutes later, a few feet away from the Director's

office.

Athena paused her lips. "Honestly, | don’t know. It could be any of these rich stupid men."

"What about hospitals or those rich men in the health field? It is obvious that anyone behind this has a foot in

medicine and research," Aiden suggested, exhaling harshly, not believing in the wickedness of a man against his

fellow man.

And for what? A printed paper that could be here today and gone tomorrow, something as fickle as their own

lives. What guarantee did the rich man have that he would live the next day to enjoy his blood money?

Aiden shook his head. Sometimes, he just didn’t understand people whose evilness was like this.

"There are a lot..." Athena spoke, answering his question. "We can all check them out, but I doubt we will find

anything. The gang, apart from being a good gunning agency, is also good at covering their clients. | don’t think

there are footprints left."

A pregnant pause.

"But we will check on it," She added, filing it away. She might need to ask for her children’s help again with their

elite friends.

With that noted down, they made their way back to the director's office, where Alvarez was seated, engrossed in

reports on his computer screen. His brow furrowed with concentration as he sifted through data.

"Director," Athena began, her voice steady but laced with urgency. "We are done with the interrogations."

Alvarez didn’t look up. "And what do you have for me? What do they have to say for themselves? What are your

deductions?"

Athena thought that the director was too relaxed upon hearing this gist, a far cry from the excitement that would

have shown on his face had she said the swords a year ago. Still...

"We need to pursue the Grey disease case," She said simply, too unsettled to sit down. Seeing as Aiden

remained standing, she believed he felt the same.

Alvarez looked up then, a skeptical expression replacing his focus. "That's a high-risk operation, Athena. We can’t
