Chapter 695

hapter 695 “W–What happened here?!” When Ashton followed Sage into the room again, she was stunned. Hearing the gunshot earlier, she thought Deon had killed Emmanuel, and even if that were not the case, Emmanuel would still be bleeding profusely from the wound. However, that was not the sight that greeted her! “Was I hearing things?” she muttered as she looked at Deon and the two subordinates lying on the floor, all knocked unconscious! 1 Sage, however, was looking at the bullet on the wall, deep in thought. “Be careful of this maniac, Mr. Payne! He’s probably dangerous!” Ashton finally recognized Emmanuel’s power, so she warned Sage of the possible danger. Mr. Payne? When Emmanuel heard that name, he was secretly stunned as he stood where he was. He trembled a little when he saw the 4–inch scar However, when she was about to get her hands on Emmanuel, Sage immediately shouted, “Stop it, Ash! You’re being impudent to him!” What? What does he mean?! She was startled as she turned to look at Sage. The shocked look in her eyes had a hint of indignance in them. Why would Mr. Payne, who was usually cold and unfathomable, say I’m being impudent to a jerk like him? He even seemed very respectful toward him! Sage ignored her as he walked over to Emmanuel, uttering respectfully, “Mr. Lowe, pardon me, but please tell me about the details of the case.” sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ƒindηʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Mr. Lowe? Pardon me? Please?? Ashton was starting to get a little confused. What is going on?! Emmanuel was cursing Sage in his mind. How could Sage talk to him like that when there were outsiders around? Did Sage not consider that woman as an outsider? “Hey, Mr. Payne is talking to you!” Ashton was already pissed, so when she saw her idol talking to Emmanuel, who purposely delayed his response, she wanted to kick him. “Um, well… Back then, Magnus brought Black Bear along to kill me and Ms. Lenoir. In my attempt to protect her, I accidentally… killed Black Bear. I–I swear I was just defending myself! As for Ms. Lenoir, Magnus threw her off the cliff! I–I swear!” Emmanuel was stil! purposefully trembling. “Damn, you’re still spouting nonsense!” Ashton never believed Emmanuel anyway, so his response rendered her even more confident that he was just playing tricks. She could barely hold back the urge to hit him. Sage, however, stopped Ashton as he stared intently at Emmanuel, frowning slightly. He also thought that he had gotten the wrong person. Maybe this Emmanuel isn’t the one from the Northern Region. Although the information on the Northern Region Wolf Warrior Unit was an S–rank secret, and information on the Wolf Warrior was an SSS–rank secret, he and that man used to be comrades who went through lethal dangers together. How could he not know the man’s name? “Um, yes, that’s how it is… Sir, can I leave now? My wife is still waiting for me at home…” Emmanuel continued putting on the poor citizen act, shifting his tone on purpose. However, when Sage heard his words, he remained motionless for a long time, Emmanuel could feel the burning gaze looming over him and felt extremely uncomfortable. “Can you raise your head?” Sage insisted, speaking slowly. “Sir, I’m not some beautiful woman. What’s there to see about me?” For the sake of hiding his identity, Emmanuel had to keep the show going. He did not want more people to know about his identity, or it would affect his mission to slay the country’s enemies in the future! Still, Sage managed to find something fishy as he slowly walked up to Emmanuel. He was an investigation team captain and a grade one inspector, having solved countless cases in the past, including international ones. His senses were extremely keen, so how could Emmanuel hide anything from him? Ashton was confused by what she was witnessing right now. How could Sage be so polite to this b*stard? She had worked with Sage for three years but had never seen the cold man treating anyone this way! To her surprise, Emmanuel refused to look up, and Sage did not dare to force him to raise his head. Rather, he took the initiative to get down on one knee, then looked up at Emmanuel’s face from below. What is going on?! Ashton was so shocked that she would be burnt to a crisp if she got an actual electric shock. On the other hand, Sage’s eyes lit up as elation colored his face. No doubt about it. He was completely certain. It is him, right here! The one I’ve been searching for for the past three years! Although he did not know why Emmanuel refused to acknowledge him, he believed he had gotten the right person. “Greed and brutality reign in the battlefield, but we sustain on bonds of brotherhood!” He could not hold in his excitement as he recited their slogan back then. These were words of wisdom Emmanuel had once said to his subordinates when they were carrying out a mission in the Northern Region. On the brutal battlefield, wolves had to be merciless to their enemies; they would never be tamed! However, wolves were also beasts that operated in packs. They valued sacrifice and were willing to sacrifice themselves so that the group could survive. Such was the Northern Region Wolf Warrior Unit! Still, when Emmanuel heard the slogan, he could only sigh in exasperation. The decision he made back then had already betrayed his creed as a Wolf Warrior. Due to his decision, the Wolf Warrior Unit ended up in shambles. Even today, he felt guilty because of it. So, he had no choice but to keep faking it. “What’s going on? Why are you reciting poems all of a sudden? Can I please go home now? I miss my wife and son and my home. What sort of horrible place is this? Who wants to spend the night here anyway? Damn it!” “Mr. Lowe, you can’t hide it. Please just stop pretending, okay?” Sage stood up straight away, gripping Emmanuel’s shoulders emotionally. “Hey, grumpy girl, I don’t mind that you’re a little stupid and on a lower level, but why is your captain acting all weird as well? Don’t you have anyone with common sense here? How am I going to put up with this?” Emmanuel knew Sage had recognized him, but he insisted on keeping up the act. He even made it worse by being rude and arrogant on purpose. Sage was finally pissed as he shook Emmanuel forcefully, “Mr. Lowe, why won’t you acknowledge me? It’s me, Night Wolf! Don’t you remember me? I’m Night Wolf!” Ashton was shocked senseless, and she never once blinked. What is going onr The b*stard she looked down on the most turned out to be the superior of  Sage, whom she admired the most!
