Chapter 383 Extra Story Their Identities (Part One)
On the way to the airport, Jazlyn was driving absentmindedly.
"Hey! Watch the road!" Sitting in the passenger seat, Aisha suddenly grabbed the steering wheel and rotated it twice to the left as they swerved right. She glared at Jazlyn and said, "Do you want us to die on the road? Focus!"
Jazlyn came back to her senses at one. Seeing that the car almost hit the roadside, she felt terrified. "Boss, I'm sorry."
"What’s wrong with you these days?" With a frown, Aisha continued, "Since Paul was injured, you seemed to have no will to do anything. What's wrong with you? We have to keep an eye on Corbett when we go to Japan. If you continue being like this, it'd be better for you to just stay in A City."
"No, boss! I must go with you!" Jazlyn implored, "I'm fine! I'll make sure I won't be a burden to our mission. I promise I won't be a drag!"
Pursing her lips, Aisha thought for a moment and asked, "I haven't seen Lucas since he operated on Paul last time. Doesn't he like to pester you all the time? Why did he change his mind all of a sudden?"
Hearing the question, Jazlyn's body stiffened. She cast a wry smile and said, "Well, it's better that he's not pestering me anymore. I'm now happy and relaxed!"
Unable to believe what she had heard, Aisha raised her eyebrows. "Really? Then why do I feel that your tone is so sad? It's your fault anyway. You drove him away, so now he probably doesn't want to talk to you anymore.” "Boss, we have arrived at the airport." Jazlyn pretended not to have heard what Aisha had said. Instead, she pulled over, unfastened her seatbelt, and got off the car.
'Lucas... Lucas...'Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
As Jazlyn strode towards the airport, she felt more and more confused. For a few days, she had secretly waited for Lucas to bother her again, just like he used to. However, she did not see him, not even a strand of his hair. It was as though Lucas had been wiped off from Earth all of a sudden.
Aisha got off the car as well. She knew Jazlyn was acting strange so she shook her head with a sigh. 'Jazlyn is obviously bothered by love!'
Suddenly, her phone rang.
She took it out to look at the caller ID. It was Archer. She stuck out her tongue in fear. Her phone was ringing relentlessly but she just stared at it. Instead of answering, she waited for Archer to hang up.
Beep. Beep. Beep.
The moment Archer hung up the phone, Aisha breathed a sigh of relief. She was about to put her phone back into her pocket when she heard a bewitching voice behind her.
"Did I frighten you when I called you on the phone? You even felt relieved when I hung up, huh?" Archer held his phone in his left hand, and his other hand was inside his pocket. Staring at Aisha, he slowly walked towards her with a doting smile.
As if in a daze, Aisha turned around slowly and grinned at him. "What are you doing here?"
"If I didn't come here, would you have run away secretly?" Slowly, Archer approached and he narrowed his eyes at her. "Tell me, what are you going to do in Japan?" "Work! Just recently, a devastating earthquake hit Japan. Jazlyn and I need to go there and write something about the catastrophe!"
"Aren't you two entertainment reporters?" Archer asked with a sneer.
”1... Well, we don't have enough reporters. Can't entertainment reporters work part-time as news reporters? What's wrong about it?" she explained with a red face. Then, she craned her neck to feign confidence. "Go away. We can't be late, or else we won't be able to catch up with the first- hand news!" Without waiting for Archer's response, she passed by him with a scoff.
"Stop!" As Aisha was about to walk a few steps forward, Archer put his arm on her shoulder.
"Hey!" She punched Archer in the face, but he dodged nimbly. "Do you want to resolve this matter by force?"
Archer laughed at her remark. He gently held Aisha's fist and lowered it. "I don't want to hit you. I'm just afraid that you're going to be in danger so I asked you that."
With a shrug, Aisha replied, "Whatever. Anyway, I have to go now. Remember to take good care of my sister. Call me if you need anything."
Before she walked past him again, Archer sighed heavily. "Don't you want to admit the truth? Do you think I will betray you? Don't you trust me? Aisha, who are you?"
"Since you are so capable, can't you find it out yourself?" Aisha stared at Archer with meaningful expression and then turned around to leave. It was not that she did not want to tell him. She just thought that it would be inconvenient for her if her identity was exposed halfway through her mission. Anyway, why should she tell this guy about herself? It was not like she owed him something. Although he was handsome, rich, gentle, considerate, and good to her...
"Damn it!" Aisha patted herself on the head as she walked. "Why are you thinking too much?"
Watching Aisha walk farther and farther away, Archer shouted, "Be careful!"
Although her back was to him, she smiled and waved her hand without looking back. "Okay!"
Archer's phone rang unexpectedly.
He hurriedly picked it up and answered it. "Hello?"
"Sir, we've found something."
"I'll be right back." With a stern look, Archer turned around and walked out.
The plane flew across the sky with Jazlyn and Aisha inside. As their plane landed successfully in Japan, they continued to track down Corbett's whereabouts. However, they did not expect that upon their arrival, Mary and William’s relationship had fallen into disrepair.
Archer walked out of the airport and returned to his residence in the city. When he arrived, his men were waiting for him at the door. Seeing him, they bowed and greeted him respectfully. "Good day, sir."
"Good day." Archer nodded and asked straightforwardly, "What have you found out? Who on earth is Aisha?"
"She's an inspector of the International Criminal Police Organization."
"Interpol?" Archer smiled, but not a trace of happiness was in his eyes. "Go on." "Okay." The man nodded politely and continued, "Twenty years ago, she was recruited to participate in a special training. She was able to enter ICPO smoothly.
As an inspector, she has solved many crimes, even heinous ones, in the past five years. At present, she came here in the city as a reporter to investigate the smuggling case by Corbett from Japanese Shadow Organization."
"Corbett..." Archer twirled his fingers, lost in thought. Everything clicked with him. He suddenly understood why he saw her at the celebration party of "Be Together" and why she left in a hurry
after she came back from Z City. Everything seemed to be interconnected. In this way, things would be easy to deal with.
"What about Jazlyn?" Archer asked again.
"She works for Aisha, also an Interpol."
"Okay, I see." Archer nodded in satisfaction. It turned out that Aisha was completely on the bright road.
Meanwhile, Lucas stayed in the hospital all day long, not even a thought of sticking to Jazlyn occurred to him. He planned to go help in the hospital if he could and go home after work right away. This had been his daily life, but today, something felt different. According to Archer, Jazlyn went to Japan with Aisha. When they would come back, he had no idea.
Then, his phone rang which broke his trance.
He took a look at the caller ID on his phone and answered it with a smile. "Hello, Barry! Why are you calling me now?"
"Come here to my house and take away William. He's very persistent in getting inside." Through the phone, Lucas could tell that Barry's voice was serious and somehow resentful.
"What?! What do you mean? Does William have a crush on you?" Lucas queried one after another. "Wow! That's some breaking news!"
Barry rubbed his eyebrows and said, "I don't have time to talk bullshit with you. Just come here and bring your medicine box. If you are late, William will die." "What's going on? We haven't contacted each other for only a day... " Frowning, he stood up from the sofa and said, "Wait for me! I'll be right there!"
"Okay."
After packing up, Lucas hurried to Barry's house with the medicine box. The moment he had arrived, he saw William standing at the door. William seemed to be in so much pain. Lucas hurried to greet him.
