Chapter 81

Holding the door , Allen frore on the spot . After a few seconds , he stiffly turned his head , and his eyes gradually became wide open
“ Why is she here ? ” he wondered . He straightened his back and looked at Fryderyk . “ Is she Aria ? ”
“ Yes , ” Fryderys , replied . His sharp gare shifted between Alla and Allen . “ Chief , do you know her ? ”
don’t ” Allen rubbed his temples to relieve the pain , “ I want a word with her . ”
Fryderyk didn’t move , and he flashed back to the moment in the car . “ Ask Allen to get you off the murder charge . Allen , Allen Lawrence ? ” he wondered .
“ Why are you standing there ? Move ! ” Allen pushed Fryderyk out of the room before Fryderyk asked his questions .
Outside the room , Fryderyk leaned against the wall , took a stick of gum out of his pocket , and put it into his mouth . The faint fragrance excited his taste buds , and he gradually collected his thoughts .
The visit to the Saxon family was helpful . At least , he already figured out the relationship between Aria and her family .
It seemed the Saxon family was ignorant of what Aria had gone through . Why did Aria show up after she had been missing for ten years ?
Was it a coincidence that she found her real family upon her return to this city ? Did she have any ulterior purpose ?
Fryderyk turned his head slightly , and his gaze landed on the door handle . Why did Aria get acquainted with Allen ?
In the waiting room , Allen hurried over , pulled a chair over , and sat across from Aria . “ On mission , huh ? ”
Aria looked at Allen and said , “ So , you did get promoted to be the Chief .
Their last meeting was five years ago . Back then , Aria’s companion had left a comment . “ Allen , you have the potential to be the Chief . ”

He said , “ Good . You’re still young . You can’t waste your whole life in the shadows . Your current name is Aria , isn’t it ? Wait …
Something popped to mind , and Allen quickly pulled out his phone . After a quick flip through the trending topic about Aria’s life , he had shock on his face again .
What a complex story ! No wonder Aria had chosen that trade . At the thought of Aria’s skills , Allen’s sympathy lasted only two seconds .
Allen said , “ Fryderyk is headstrong . He won’t stop till he finds the truth . What did he get on you ? ”
“ Quite a lot , ” Aria thought “ My face , ” she said calmly , “ and a bank card . ”
Allen frowned . “ Don’t you wear masks during missions ? ”
“ Before the targets take their last breath , I take my mask off .”
“ Why ? ”
Aria gazed at Allen and slowly replied . “ In this way , they’ll remember my face . They won’t find the wrong person to avenge themselves when there is a chance . ”
That was her practice . Allen was dumbfounded .
Silence pervaded . Amused and

and irritated , Allen turned his head , closed his eyes , and took two deep breaths before he asked , “ What about the bank card ? ”

Allen changed the subject , 171 have a word with Fryderyk first . The mob has been placated , and Flet Fryderyk taka yöt home later ,
“ This mess drew a lot of attention , and you are mistaken for the culprits of another to unsolved murder cases . We will send word that you are the suspect in Declan’s case toronow and clear your name later . ”
Declan deserved what he got . After the news was spread , the public would be appeased . “ As for the fraud charge . I will tell them to solve the problem
