Stellan's grip tightened involuntarily.

Percival was right.

Ever since Griffin's paper on the new bomb technology had gone missing, Stellan had felt something amiss, and now that he had heard GTO had managed to develop the new bomb, his concerns deepened. He knew there were unspeakable secrets within the Vanguard Agency!

But it was all speculation, and Stellan had no one to voice his suspicions to.

That was why he had slowed down the pace of the development of biochemical weapons.

But after so many years of dragging his feet, how much longer could he delay?

Sooner or later, the biochemical weapons would be traded through the Martinez family's channels, and eventually, they would lose control!

Biochemical weapons were different from other arms. Guns and bombs could still be contained if they got into the wrong hands, but a biochemical weapon...

The consequences could be disastrous.

Percival had hit the nail on the head with every word!

Seeing Stellan's expression soften, Percival pressed on, "Mr. Martinez, I assure you none of your worries will come to pass. I will root out anyone with a double agenda. I was a special operative for the Vanguard Agency, and even though I've left, I haven't forgotten my core values."

Stellan bit his lower lip, his gaze lingering on Percival as the hesitance slowly receded.

"What ever happened to that batch of weapons I handed off to you?"

A slight smile crossed Percival's face.

Back then, he had no choice but to deal with the Martinez family. After Lark's death, the Agency was in chaos, and Percival was on the trail of a significant crime syndicate but desperately short on firepower, which complicated the mission.

As the criminals were about to slip across the border, he had to strike a risky bargain with the Martinez family using his alias, Mr. Percy.
