Chapter 82
Watching Vincent unbutton his shirt, Stephanie bit her lower lip.
Vincent threw his shirt aside, then held his belt buckle.
“Don’t take it off. I’m going to bed, Stephanie quickly said when she heard a click.
“Do you want to go to bed after I take off my clothes?” Vincent asked.
“Stop spouting nonsense,” Stephanie said.
Vincent was amused by her blushing. “You were so brave to forcibly kiss me on the way to City Hall. Why do you blush when I’m doing nothing now?” he
Mentioning the past, Stephanie pursed her lips. “I just wanted to seduce you at that time, she replied,
Vincent raised his eyebrows and said, “I didn’t expect you to be so scheming back then.”
Stephanie’s face turned red because when she saw Vincent’s robust body, she would think of intimate scenes when they were together.
Worried he might catch her thoughts, she hurriedly said, “Go shower. I’m going to bed.”
“So, aren’t you accompanying me?” Vincent asked.
“No, I’m so sleepy. Bye!” Stephanie answered. She quickly ended the video call, fearing that if she saw Vincent showering, it would be awkward and embarrassing.
She quickly went to wash up and then came back to lie down, preparing to sleep.
But she tossed and turned and found that she could not fall asleep. She was used to having Vincent by her side.
When she could not fall asloop, Vincent’s video call came through again.
Stephanie answered and looked at Vincent’s handsome face. “What’s wrong?” she asked.
I’m worried that you can’t sleep because you miss me, so I called to let you see me,” Vincent said.
“No. I’m almost asleep, Stephanie denied.
Vincent smiled and said, “Okay, I’m sorry to bother you, I just miss you. I’ll end the call after you sleep.”
Stephanie hummed in response.
She saw his face in the video and felt as if he was beside her. She slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Vincent ended the call reluctantly and went to take a shower.
Alter he showered, he dried his hair and changed into a suit. At that moment, someone knocked at the door.
When he heard it was Joseph, he opened the door
Joseph’s appearance had changed. “Why haven’t you put on the mask yet?” he asked.
I called Stephie just now,” said Vincent.
Joseph clicked his tongue “Looks like you’re turning into a slave to your wife,” he remarked.

Vincent glanced at him indifferently. “How can a singleton know the sweetness of love?” he responded.
Joseph was speechless.
Vincent took out a thin, hyper–realistic task from a box and put it on. In an instant, he looked ordinary.
If it weren’t for his tall figure, no one would notice him.
Joseph teared, “How did you get taller? You’re almost six and a half feet.”
Vincent explained, “I wore elevator shoes. I don’t want anyone to speculate about my identity based on height. Have you confirmed the position of those women and children?”
Joseph nodded and answered, “Yes. That organization changed locations several times before. They’re going to make a deal tonight. I hope we can catch them all in one go.”
Vincent put on a ring symbolizing his status and gently rubbed it. “Ask Willow to bring in another team. I don’t want anything to go wrong” he said.
“Okay, I’ll call her now,” said Joseph
After contacting Willow, Joseph left the hotel with Vincent and got in Zane’s car.
The car arrived at a dense forest after an hour and a half of driving. Forty minutes later, they arrived at a base.
The high walls of the base were guarded by mercenaries dressed in khaki.
Seeing Vincent’s ring, the car was let into the base,
It was a military base and a technology base.
Zane got out of the car. He opened the back door for Vincent and Joseph.
Those who saw the two of them bowed respectfully, “Bass. Adviser,” they greeted.
Vincent and Joseph walked straight into the conference room. All the senior executives stood up and saluted. Subsequently, everyone gave opinions and suggestions regarding tonight’s hostage rescue operation.
An hour later, Vincent made a decision,
A man named Sontay Langtry raised his hand lazily, his eyes filled with dissatisfaction. “Storm, lobject to Cortor’s proposal. It will put two of the seven teams in danger. We can’t risk our lives just to save those hostages,” he said.
Vincent said indifferently, “Don’t question the decision I have made.”
Sontay gritted his teeth and swallowed the rest of his words.
After Vincent and Joseph left, Sontay glared at Cortor Arliss, who returned the look with disdain. Sontay said, “Don’t be too proud. If the teams suffer Huge losses, you can’t escape the responsibility! You’re just an empty talker”
The smile on Cortor’s face disappeared. “Let’s wait and see” he replied.
Vincent took Joseph to the ammunition depot for inspection. They found a batch of damp weapons.
“It seems that there is a traitor in the base,” Joseph said in a low voice.
Vincent smiled. “Tonight, the traitor will be caught red–handed,” he said.
Joseph also smiled. The traitor dug his own grave.
30 May
At five o’clock in the morning, Stephanie woke up suddenly Glancing at the time, she sighed, unsure why she fell uneasy. Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
-It was ten o’clock in the evening at Vincent’s place.
The time difference between the two countries was 17 hours.
At this time, Vincent might be asleep.
After all, he comediately started working on the project when he arrived at the place. He was likely asleep at this time.
Stephanie put down her phone, closed her eyes, and tried to sleep. But she was still awake after a long time.
She got up and went to the bathroom to freshen up, then proceeded to work on her rough sketch.
She held a colored pencil to sketch, but it broke in half before she pressed down on it.
She was flustered. After thinking for a while, she called Vincent.
When the phone was about to hang up, Vincent answered.
“Stephie?” Vincent said.
“Vincent, are you okay?” Stephanie asked.
am okay. I’m sleeping. What’s wrong?” Vincent asked.
“It’s nothing. Go to sleep. Call me when you wake up,” Stephanie said.
“Okay.” Vincent replied
After saying goodbye, Stephanie ended the call
Since Vincent was sleeping, she suppressed the restless feelings in her heart and continued working on the rough sketch.
At the same time, Vincent turned off the phone and put it into his pocket.
He glanced around at the burning flames and the ruins caused by guns. His eyes then shifted down to a little boy he held by the chin, who was still trying
to hit him.
Joseph asked worriedly, “Storm, are you okay?”
Vincent hummed in response.
“The boy looks only ten. He’s too ruthless! Other team members were also attacked by the children and got seriously injured. These kids can’t be kept. They’ve been brainwashed,” Joseph said.
Vincent moved his hand to the boy’s neck, and with a slight force, the little boy breathed heavily.
In the end, Vincent could not bear to harm the little boy. He handed the boy to a mercenary. “Take these kids to the base. If Skull Corps can brainwash them, we can also re–educate them. Count the women and children and send them back. Wesley, assess the casualties on both sides and eliminate all the enemies,” he ordered.

Joseph’s alias in Storm Corps was Wesley. He asked, “What about that traitor?”
Vincent gritted his teeth. “Leave it to Sontay. I think he will be willing to deal with it,” he answered.
“Yes,” Joseph responded.
Alter returning to the base, Joseph took Vincent into the operating room.

Five medical staff members were already waiting there.
Vincent took off his clothes and lay on the operating table.
A nurse gave him anesthesia. Soon, he felt his eyelids heavy and closed his eyes
“Is it serious” Joseph asked.
A doctor said, “The intestines were injured, and they need to be stitched from the inside out. Recovery will take some time.”
Joseph nodded. “Okay,” he replied.
Vincent did not wake up until noon on the second day,
The moment he opened his eyes, he looked for his phone subconsciously.
Joseph hurried over and asked, “What are you looking for?”
“My phone, Vincent said.
“Are you worried Stephanie will call you?” Joseph asked. He took out Vincent’s phone from his pocket and handed it to Vincent. “I answered for you and said you were drunk,” he added.
Vincent felt relieved. “Thank you,” he said.
“You’re welcome,” said Joseph. “By the way, Willow brought Nancy Freeman back,” he informed.
Vincent frowned. He was about to say something when the door was pushed open.
