An Understated Dominance (Dustin Rhys)
Chapter 2597
“Stop right there!” Colton suddenly shouted and stopped Mulder just as he was about to pass through the checkpoint.
In an instant, everyone tensed up. Mulder’s hand instinctively moved to the hilt of his blade, and Warrick clenched his fists, ready for a fight.
“Mr. Dane, is there a problem?” Mulder turned, smiling calmly.
“Are these men your soldiers?” Colton’s gaze swept over the men, scanning each one from the front to the back.
“Of course. I trained them myself.” Mulder nodded, the easy smile still plastered on his face.
“Show me their ID badges. I need to check them one by one.”
“Is that really necessary? I’m in a bit of a hurry to carry out my mission.”
“I’m just doing my duty, and I’d appreciate your cooperation,” Colton replied, his gaze unwavering.
“Mr. Dane, it’s not like we just met. Do you still not trust me?” Mulder’s eyes narrowed slightly. “Besides, I have Mr. Cruz’s signed authorization right here. Even if you won’t do me a favor, surely you wouldn’t disrespect him, right?”
Colton frowned and looked hesitant. He didn’t mind offending Mulder, but crossing Axel could spell trouble for his career. Still, if he didn’t check carefully and something went wrong, he’d be the one held accountable.
After a few moments of deliberation, Colton stood his ground. “Rules are rules. Please show me the ID badges.”
Mulder’s smile slowly faded. “Since you insist, I guess we have no choice but to comply.”
He turned to the dozen or so men behind him and gave them a subtle nod. “Show your IDs to Mr. Dane.”
