When he regained consciousness, his hands were tied and his whole body hung from a ceiling beam.


    Only by standing on tiptoe did he manage to keep his bnce.


    It was exhausting to maintain this posture.


    The pain in his arms was unbearable, and he suspected his shoulder would soon be dislocated.


    His armpit would also be bruised in no time.


    Still, he chuckled.


    This method of torture was often used by the military.


    “What are youughing about?” a deep, male voice asked.


    Kyson red at him.


    It was the same masked man he had seen before he passed out.RêAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only


    The man leaned leisurely against a wooden pir.


    Kyson’s gaze was calm and steady.


    He smiled.


    “Iam wondering what I have done to offend the National Security Bureau.


    Why did you capture me?”


    The masked man moved closer and got straight to the point.


    “Recently, a sample of the $404 virus went missing from ourb.


    We checked the records and discovered that you visited theb half a month ago.


    ”


    Kyson was unconvinced.


    “Many people visit thatb.


    Why do you only suspect me?”


    “Because on the day you invited Lucinda to the Samsara Bar, someone actually use


    d that bottle of S404.


    Do you still maintain that it has nothing to do with you?”


    Kyson frowned.


    “How did you get that information?”


    The man removed his mask and revealed Nathaniel’s handsome but fierce face.


    Kyson stared in shock.


    “You? How did you get hold of this mask? Are you? No, I don’t believe it.


    How could you be the head of the National Security Bureau?”


    Kyson had sensed something strange about Nathaniel.


    When he had him investigated, Nathaniel’s file was too clean.


    He knew something wasn’t right, but still, he hadn’t expected this.


    Even in Kyson’s wildest dreams, Nathaniel couldn’t be the leader of the National Security Bureau, or could he?


    Nathaniel narrowed his eyes and observed Kyson’s changing expression as the truth dawned on him.


    Seeing the shocked expression on Kyson’s face, Nathaniel said, “So you stole S404 because you wanted to hurt Lucinda, not because you discovered my identity.


    You pretended to love her when you really intended to destroy her with the virus.
