Dark Revenge Of An Unwanted Wife The Twins Are Not Yours novel Chapter 185

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 time before her trap was found out.

"We are leaving to meet with the director. There are some things 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. I 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 time to 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. I 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.
