Mila seemed to grasp the situation. Her eyes brimmed with tears as she tightly held Zach's hand. "Grandpa, Nate's plan means that once he rescues you, Avery can be arrested." "Yes," Nathan confirmed.

A sigh of relief escaped Zach, tears shimmering in his eyes as he nodded in acknowledgment.

That evening, Mila stayed by Zach's side at the hospital until nightfall. While he was mostly unharmed physically, the confrontation at Memorial Heights had left him shaken up with minor injuries due to his age. Concerned for his well-being, Nathan arranged for a comprehensive medical check-up for Zach and ensured he received the necessary care. The hospital could also provide him with additional security.

At the frontiers, in the satellite monitoring room at the base, dozens of expansive screens showcased an array of satellite data. At station 28, two personnel were engrossed, monitoring and typing swiftly. Hugo's voice echoed in the room. "Isn't the Hoffis family's fortune enough for you? How could you be so greedy and naive? Falling for a mere 28 billion."

Avery countered, "It's not just about the money. It's the prlocation of Norvania's most luxurious estate. It's priceless. Anyone would desire such a property."

With a smirk, Hugo retorted, "Yes, it's priceless. That's why someone as covetous as you fell for it. Now, our most significant leverage is gone. What's your plan?" Avery dismissed his concern. "We still have three more cards to play, don't we?"

Hugo's tone hardened. "You better behave. Don't ever contact them again. If our remaining leverage is exposed, we're all doomed."

"Why?"

"Do you have any idea of Nathan's capabilities?suspect our current conversation is already under

satellite Surveillance. Everyone

around you is probably bought.net

him Every word and every action of ours is likely monitored. One wrong move, and it's over for us

Avery scoffed, "You're overestimating him. That sounds absurd."

"While he may not have divine powers, challenging a national defense general as mere mortals is futile. Isn't the untouched Hoffis family fortune evidence enough?" Hugo asked.

He continued, "Despite our spotless

records, we face spending

restrictions.. Isn't this his doing?

Holding assets worth hundreds ret

billions for the Hoffis family, yet we're only allowed to handle minor matters. It's like working for them without pay."

Avery's voice was defiant. "He can't be that formidable. Those aroundhave been loyal for years. They're well-compensated and would never be bought."

Hugo's sneer deepened, his voice

dripping with disdain. "Wealth is insignificant; power is what truly matters. Nathan can control those around you and command their loyalty without spending a cent."

Avery's expression turned anxious. "Do you mean Nathan is using his power to intimidate?"

"In the face of criminals, it's not just intimidation. It's recruitment, espionage, turning someone into an informant, or even offering redemption through betrayal."

Avery's panic was palpable. "If you know his capabilities, think of a plan!"

"Now you're alarmed? Where was this concern earlier?"

"What if we seek Oliver's help? He's currently..." she suggested.

Hugo's fury erupted as he grabbed her throat. "Mind your words! We could be under surveillance."

Struggling for breath, Avery pushed Hugo away and yelled, "What are you doing? Letgo."

As Hugo released her, she retorted defiantly, "Surveillance? Look around, it's empty. How could we possibly be under surveillance here?"
