“I understand that completely.” Gautier nodded before hesitating. “But I do have some concerns…”

“What concerns?” Mike asked sharply. “Are you afraid Catherine won’t use you once she becomes president?”

“No, of course not!” Gautier denied it outright, though that was precisely what worried him.

He had no relationship with Catherine–they had never even spoken. Once she won the presidency, there was no telling if she would still acknowledge him. But with Mike pressing him, he couldn’t admit to such a

fear.

“What is it you’re worried about then?” Mike narrowed his eyes, his tone growing more forceful.

“To be honest, Mr. Connaught, we’ve already made arrangements with Mayor Zelinsky.” Gautier lowered his voice. “In two days, we’re holding the Grand Hunt. Once Emmanuel Lowe is eliminated, Ethan Hunt will undoubtedly be the next assassination target.

“But we’re still unclear about Mason Morgan’s stance, as well as the Holy Trinity’s next move. If Ethan dies, they might retaliate against Ms. Zelinsky, and we can’t be certain she’ll successfully secure the presidency.”

“Hahaha…” Mike suddenly burst into laughter, his booming voice filling the courtyard.

Gautier was baffled but remained silent, watching him closely.

“Really?” Gautier’s eyes brightened with anticipation. “Please, Mr. Connaught, tell me.”
