The pair strolled out of the vi hand in hand, their connection evident to anyone who saw them.


    Just as they reached the gate, Nathan’s phone rang, interrupting the moment.N?velDrama.Org holds this content.


    It was from an officer in the National Security Bureau, and he delivered bad news.


    “Mr.


    Payne, we have a situation.


    Ronan has disappeared!”


    Nathan’s expression darkened in a split second.


    Lucinda, noticing the change in his demeanor, shot him a questioning look.


    They wasted no time and hurried to the National Security Bureau, anxious to get to the bottom of Ronan’s disappearance.


    They made their way to the room where Mylo and Ronan had been held.


    In the dim confines of the cell, only Mylo sat there, seemingly unperturbed, puffing away on a cigarette.


    The smoke veiled his face as it rose.


    Trying to contain his rising fury, Nathan approached Mylo alongside Lucinda.


    Mylo sneered, “Nathan, you’re not managing the National Security Bureau well.


    My son is missing.


    Don’t you think you need to give me an exnation?”


    With a cold edge to his voice, Nathan shot back, “You seem to have quite the knack for meddling with things in the National Security Bureau I am running, orchestrating Ronan’s disappearance right under my nose.


    ”


    On their way here, he and Lucinda had made a quick stop at the monitoring room.


    Larry had been putting in extra hours to dig into this matter.


    The strange thing was, just half an hour ago, the monitoring room of the National Security Bureau was hit by a malicious hack, forcing all the surveince cameras to shut down.


    During that period, Ronan had mysteriously disappeared from the room.


    Since he arrived, Nathan had been wearing a particrly cold expression, barely containing the emotions simmering within him.


    Seeing his demeanor, Mylo couldn’t help but chuckle with delight.


    “Nathan, you already know who’s behind it, but you couldn’t bring yourself to believe it, right?”


    Nathan clenched his fists discreetly under his sleeves, his gaze fixed on Mylo, saying nothing.


    Lucinda, standing behind Nathan, caught sight of his clenched fists and let out a silent sigh.


    She, too, had an inkling of who could be behind all this.


    A tempest was brewing within the prison walls.


    Mylo pretended not to notice Nathan’s anger.


    He took a long drag from his cigarette, his spirits high.


    “Your parents perished in a car ident.


    With Norton’s power, he could’ve made the culprit pay, but he didn’t!”
