Chapter 545: Linden Takes Office

Jared drove to the X Bureau Ashbury headquarters, where Jason, Courtney, and others were waiting, all dressed in X Bureau uniforms. Today was the day Jared officially assumed his role as Deputy Director. Every member of the X Bureau in Ashbury was neatly dressed for the ceremony. With the Director absent, the Deputy Director was in charge, making this day no different from Jared officially taking over the Ashbury headquarters.

"Captain, why are you driving?" Jason approached as Jared stepped out of the driver's seat, while Hayden, seated in the passenger seat, slept like a log, infuriating Jason to the point of grinding his teeth. How could this Husky, Hayden, allow the captain to drive himself? Moreover, with Jared now as Deputy Director, and all the headquarters staff present, how could he maintain his dignity?

It was well-known that Jason was Jared's top fanboy, never allowing anything that could threaten or tarnish Jared's reputation. Christopher had once said that if Jared declared the X Bureau shouldn't exist, Jason would dismantle the entire national organization. Like this ceremony, Jason was even more excited than Jared himself, having stayed up all night in anticipation.

Jared tossed the car keys to Jason and took the uniform handed to him by Courtney, "Pick up that Husky pig." Without a second thought, Jason lifted Hayden, nearly crushing his shoulder blades.

After changing into his uniform, Jared headed to the auditorium. The whole agency was present, and when Jared appeared, the room erupted in applause. Jason's was the loudest voice, nearly deafening Hayden sitting beside him. Courtney, sitting behind Jason, rolled her eyes at him disdainfully. She was convinced that if Jason were a woman, he would be Tina's fiercest rival.

Jared took his seat among the leaders, right in the center. "The Director is absent, I brought my own insignia, meeting adjourned." The audience was stunned; Jared was the Deputy Director, and to hold such a large meeting without saying much?
