The Million-Dollar Heart by Rebecca Ryan

Chapter 498

Percival took the file from Micah, his brows furrowing in confusion. It was a mission dossier handed down from HQ but without its origin.

The target was the GTO’s virus research facility nestled in Sea City!

The file demanded Percival’s covert presence, with Micah coordinating from Rivenwood HQ and the three squad leaders on standby.

Such an order was out of season; it did not make sense.

Percival rubbed his fingers. “Someone inside HQ is helping us?”

Micah shook his head. “I called HQ this morning, and they were still steamed about me sending Vivienne into the war zone, as well as you and Husky leaking our war zone position to her. No way they sent this.”

Percival’s eyes narrowed in thought.

If not from HQ, then where did this mission come from?

Micah tapped the table, “What’s our first rule of thumb upon joining the team?”

Percival raised an eyebrow. “Absolute obedience to command!”

“Right. We’ve got the dossier, and it’s top-secret, so there’s no need to report back. We execute.”

Percival and Micah exchanged a knowing smile. Whether or not the file was legit, it was an unmistakable asset to them.

After all, Vanguard Agency’s headquarters was in Sea City!

Percival handed over all command to Micah, silently signaling Thomas to follow suit, and instructed Leopold to guard Griffin’s munitions base. At the same time, Soren stood ready for a call to support Sea City.
