“Major, the doctors said that Ms. Woods’ surgery was successful. But why hasn’t she woken up?”

Devin and his vice-commander, Henrick Layton, were waiting in a hospital in Mapleton, Thymion. The latter had become concerned when Kira was still unconscious hours after her surgery was completed.

Devin scrunched his brows and ordered, “Go and check with the doctor.”

Similarly, he was becoming a little anxious as well, though it stemmed from the urgency to return to his base and continue performing his duties rather than concern for Kira’s safety.

After all, Devin did not wish to be held down by such messy affairs on his trip out of the base.

After receiving his orders, Henrick left immediately to consult the doctor.

Devin pulled out his phone as he waited for Henrick to return, thinking it would be a good time to check for any updates from the base.

To his surprise, the first thing he saw when he unlocked his phone was a notification of an incoming text.

The message came from a subordinate he had ordered to follow Sabrina in Clear. Major, we followed Ms. Hayes to Clear last night. There was an accident outside the city.

Devin’s expression darkened the minute he saw the word “accident,” and he stopped fidgeting with the cigarette in his hand.

An accident? What accident?

He immediately opened the video that accompanied the text message.
