Chapter 729 - Guests at the Cliffside Villa (6) (2/2)

Jarred looked at Aiden questionably, as if he wants to hear his opinion on the matter as well.

Aiden responded to Jarred's silent question: ”She trusts you. And I trust her.”

Jarred looked at two youngsters in front of him and could not help but to admire them and their relationship. He can't deny that the more he finds out about them, the more he is confident that these two people will have the power to shake the world in near future. And when that time comes, he will be happy to assist them if necessary.

…

When Sophia and Charlie ended their VR game, Sophia dragged Felix away from Galaga and two of them headed to their bedroom for the night.

Sophia is tired, and Felix needs rest as well. He was in a fight, and he has a training session with Aiden in the morning.

Jarred and Charlie went to the rooftop terrace to get some air before sleeping.

Hill and White parents also went to their respective rooms.

”Let's go and check what is going on in the VR room!”, Sarah could not contain her excitement. She grabbed Aiden's hand and almost dragged him toward the elevator.

...

Sarah and Aiden went down to the seventh level into the room they use when they operate as Sigma and Omega. The room is equipped with various computers and devices, but the most eye-catching are huge custom monitors which are lining up the wall. Toward the middle of the room are two glass tables with glowing keyboards, touchpads and ergonomic chairs which can change shape to provide various sitting (and even some kneeling) positions.

Sarah typed on her keyboard and within seconds in front of their tables, mid-air hologram was projected, showing four people tied up in the dungeon-like-room, waking up slowly.

”Your latest creation is amazing. Look at them losing their minds… they believe it's real.” Aiden praised Sarah while they watched recording.

Sarah grinned and lifted her chin proudly. She was acting all pompous, but her mind was racing with thoughts what else she can add. Sarah designed this virtual experience while thinking that they can use it to intimidate and interrogate people who cross them… 'Maybe a huge dragon rips off the ceiling and stares down at them…' She let out an evil cackle while thinking how that would scare the soul out of people.

Aiden saw that Sarah's head is swelling, but he didn't want to break her bubble. She should enjoy... it is her creation... and it is amazing… just like her.

When Aiden saw that Sarah returned to almost normal, he asked: ”Do you want to see them?”

”Not yet. There is no point in showing our faces unless we are going to get some answers.” Sarah clarified. ”And without the truth serum, even if they talk, we can't be sure they are telling the truth. I messaged Anna, she will see that we need it when they come back to the civilization.”

Sarah's hands moved toward the teal-glowing keyboard on her desk and she started typing while talking: ”There is something that is bugging me… and I believe you too. We have too many unknown things about what happened today in LA Medical Center and we should figure those out.”

Aiden didn't object. He was contemplating today's events as well.
