The Billionaire's Mistake

MISTAKE 108

Chapter 108: Escape

Jason raised an eyebrow, feigning surprise. "Arrest? On what charges, may I ask?"

Agent Vincent spoke up, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "Have your heard that it is illegal to keep and operate a private military?"

Jason couldn't help but chuckle, recalling his grandfather Ray's prescient words. The old man had seen this coming a mile away. "A private military? Is that what you think this is?"

Martha gestured to the armed men surrounding the hospital wing. "You tell us, Jason. Because from where we're standing, it sure looks like one."

Jason shook his head, a bemused smile playing on his lips. "I'm afraid you're mistaken, agents. These men? They're private security, hired to protect this wing and its patients. Nothing more." Vincent scoffed. "Private security? Come on, Jason. We weren't born yesterday."

"No, I suppose you weren't," Jason agreed. He nodded to one of his men, who produced an ID badge and handed it to Agent Martha.

Martha took the badge, her eyes widening as she read it. She looked up at Jason, then back at the badge, her face slightly frozen. When Vincent saw her reacting, he had a bad feeling.

Jason smiled. "As you can see, Agent Martha, everything here is completely above board. Now, if you're quite finished, I trust you can find your way out."

Without waiting for a response, Jason turned and walked back into the hospital, leaving the agents stunned in his wake.

"They are registered?" Vincent asked.

"Yes, a security firm in the capital," Martha answered.

"Then we detain them and check it out," Vincent insisted.

"I am willing to bet it is real. This is the jurisdiction of the police. If they are security, we can't be here; talk more arrest them without cause," Martha said tiredly. Their boss will not be happy when he hears this. Vincent let out a string of colorful curses, Martha rubbed her temples, feeling a headache coming on. "They saw us coming from a mile away," she muttered.
