Chapter 612: The True Undercover

Jared connected the USB drive to the tablet and, a moment after seeing the video, a flicker of surprise crossed his eyes. The video displayed the very scene where Jared was currently sitting, and the person who had been sitting there was a shameless woman! Her build was identical to that of Five Poisons!

She wore a wireless earpiece and spoke into the tablet, uttering the exact words she had used earlier on the cliffside. It was confirmed-she was Five Poisons! The video continued until the bionic robot exploded, and the tablet in Five Poisons' hands smoked and quickly shattered. She then swiftly fled the scene, vanishing without a trace. Throughout, there was no sign of Asher Vance.

After Jared finished watching the video, Linden spoke slowly, "This apartment, I only told Asher Vance about it, telling him you discovered my extensive apartment purchases and knew all my secrets." Jared put the tablet down. So, Asher Vance planned to use this information to ultimately extricate himself-either Linden would be the fall guy or all the blame would be thrown on him!

Elsewhere, Five Poisons put on a new mask and looked at herself in the mirror, her eyes heavy with suppressed anger. "Boss, Natalie actually didn't die, what's going on here?" Five Poisons lashed out with a slap, "You're asking me? Who should I ask? After all these years of nurturing you, costing us so many bases, and you couldn't even handle one little girl!"

Asher Vance suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. His already aged body couldn't withstand the force of the slap. He struggled to his feet slowly from the ground, "I was wrong. I personally confirmed Natalie was dead. I never imagined she was faking her death, just like that Tam Solomon, using the same tricks."

"You useless thing! The biotech secrets are out, we can't let that damned mother and daughter find any clues!" Five Poisons scolded sharply, her eyes filled with intense rage before she let out a deep, mocking laugh. "It's really interesting. Natalie is interesting, and her daughter even more so. Alright, I'll play along with them. I want to see what skills a child raised by the Whittaker family really has!"

Asher Vance half-raised his brows, looking at the sinister eyes in the mirror and couldn't help but bow his head. No matter how much time passed, those eyes still sent a shiver through his heart.

Asher Vance returned to his residence, his mind increasingly uneasy. He calculated that he had joined the X Bureau at twenty, surviving countless perils with Leo Pace up till now, retired yet rehired, almost sixty years in total. He never thought he could last this long.

Asher Vance furrowed his brows, looking at two photos on the coffee table. One was a photo with Leo, and the other showed his three apprentices gathered around him, with a medal of special merit on his chest.

Asher Vance stared deeply at Natalie's face in the photo. Her lips were upturned, her eyes bright. He heard her voice saying, "Master, I'll be your daughter from now on, your personal little cotton-padded jacket!" Asher Vance closed his eyes and slammed the photo down on the table. "Natalie, if you were truly considerate, why didn't you just die for real!"

In a pub in Ashbury, Linden summoned Christopher to a private room. "What do you want?" Christopher asked impatiently, sitting across from Linden. Linden, with half-closed eyes, said in a deep voice, "I know we've always been at odds. When Natalie was alive, you joined her against me, and after her death, you were utterly merciless. If not for our master's sake, we probably would have broken off long ago."
