Apocalypse Rebirth: Crazy from Day One

Chapter 463: Chapter 474: A Secret Solution

He continued to listen to the man, not missing a single word.

What the man said at first wasn’t much different from what Selene Larkin had reported.

The events were the same, just described slightly differently.

But upon hearing a particular sentence, Miles Sanctus’s expression changed slightly. He cut the man off, "Are you sure? Miss Sterling said that River Larkin pursued her?"

The man was taken aback, not understanding why Boss Saint would specifically ask about this. Still, he nodded without hesitation. "Yes, Boss. Miss Sterling did say that."

His voice gradually trailed off as he saw the coldness in his boss’s eyes. He felt a sense of unease.

’Did I say something wrong?’ He wasn’t sure, but it felt like an icy aura was emanating from his boss.

Miles Sanctus’s voice was much colder than before. "Tell me everything she said when she mentioned this. Don’t leave out a single word."

The man nodded, recalled how she had said it, and then repeated it verbatim for his boss.

The more Miles Sanctus listened, the colder his gaze became.

He tapped his fingers lightly, his expression serene, but his eyes were as cold as ice.

Anyone who knew him would know that he was now extremely displeased.

The more the man spoke, the more nervous he became, even making several mistakes in his retelling.

He didn’t understand. Everything had been fine until this point. Why had Boss Saint’s expression changed when he mentioned this?

Then he thought for a moment and suddenly felt he understood.

’Boss Saint is clearly interested in that Miss Sterling. He’s even pursuing her right now!’

’That River Larkin used to like Miss Sterling too. Boss Saint must be unhappy hearing that. After all, the woman he likes was once coveted by another man. And now that man is working right under his nose. How could he be happy about that?’

"And River Larkin? What was his reaction after hearing Miss Sterling say that?"

Miles Sanctus asked, his voice low.

He was extremely displeased with Selene Larkin. When she had just reported to him, she hadn’t mentioned a single word about this matter.

He had explicitly told her to report everything to him, but she had failed to do so.

’Even Selene Larkin won’t listen to me anymore?’

Although, with a moment’s thought, he could understand she had likely done it for her boyfriend, River Larkin.

But that still made him extremely displeased!

He could allow her to like that River Larkin, but she had to be absolutely loyal to him. And now, she was deceiving him—her big brother—for someone else!

Miles Sanctus’s gaze grew colder and colder.

The man before him had stopped, having finished his report.

Most of what the man said was identical to Selene Larkin’s account; it all matched up.

Except for the fact that River Larkin had once liked Stella Sterling—a detail Selene Larkin hadn’t mentioned a word about—everything else the two had said was the same.

He looked at the man before him, his voice calm. "You understand what should and shouldn’t be said in front of Selene Larkin, right?"

The man lowered his head and nodded. "Yes, I understand!"

This wasn’t the first time he had done something like this. In the past, whenever he went on missions with Ms. Larkin, Boss Saint would talk to him afterward and have him recount everything they had experienced.

He knew very well that his role was essentially that of a pawn, a spy that the boss had placed by Ms. Larkin’s side.

He understood this, but he understood even more what choice he had to make.

In this base, Boss Saint was the absolute authority.

Miles Sanctus nodded in satisfaction and waved his hand, dismissing the man.

After the man left, Miles Sanctus sat alone in the room for a long time, lost in thought.

After a long while, he summoned someone and ordered, "Find a way to separate Selene Larkin and River Larkin on the next mission, and then secretly get rid of River Larkin."

He never expected that this Jonas Larkin and Stella Sterling were actually old acquaintances.

And this River Larkin had even pursued Stella Sterling—he deserved to die!

In his mind, Stella Sterling was already his. For someone else to have designs on her was a direct offense to him.

Even though it was something that happened in the past and River Larkin now had a girlfriend, he still found the man incredibly irritating no matter how he looked at him.

Besides, his sworn sister, who had always been loyal to him, had now chosen to hide things from him for this man, River Larkin.

The two incidents combined pushed his displeasure with River Larkin to its peak.

This River Larkin had to die!

Hearing this, the man was somewhat surprised, but he forcefully suppressed it. He showed no emotion on his face, only nodding. "Yes, Boss!"

’I don’t know why the boss wants this Jonas Larkin dead,’ he thought, ’but the boss gave the order, and I just need to carry it out.’

As for anything else, it wasn’t his place to worry.

Miles Sanctus rubbed his forehead. "Do it discreetly. Don’t let Selene Larkin find out. Also, take care of River Larkin cleanly. Get it done as soon as possible."

He didn’t want to see this man again, so he had to be eliminated quickly.

As for Selene Larkin, she absolutely could not know.

That girl truly had feelings for River Larkin. To avoid affecting the bond between him and his sister, dealing with River Larkin had to be done in secret, without Selene Larkin’s knowledge.

「Meanwhile」 After Zane Xavier had eaten and drunk his fill, he said to Stella Sterling, "Miss Sterling, if you don’t want Boss Saint to know your whereabouts, you’d better not enter Veridia again."

Seeing Stella Sterling look over at him, he immediately said, "When I was tasked with taking you away, someone instructed me to lead you into Veridia. Once you’re there, someone will naturally be watching your every move!"

Stella Sterling nodded upon hearing this, not surprised.

She didn’t believe for a second that Miles Sanctus would let her go so easily.

However, he didn’t want to displease her, so he wouldn’t force her to stay at Sanctyr Base. But there would definitely be no shortage of people watching her in secret.

She looked at Zane Xavier. "Wasn’t there anyone watching the area where we landed?"

Hearing this, Zane Xavier just smiled and shook his head. "Impossible. In fact, whenever Boss Saint has special business, he has me fly him to that spot to leave secretly. It’s one of his secret landing points. He doesn’t even let other base members know about it."
