Chapter 145 - Start A Family (1/2)

That night, after everyone fell asleep, Halia snuck out of her hotel room and headed up to the sunflower garden on the rooftop.

Just a couple of hours ago, she had received a message from Jackson to meet there after midnight.

When she arrived, she took a quick glance around and hurried over to the man after she confirmed there was no one else there.

”Why did you suddenly want to meet?” she asked.

Jackson looked at the woman and smirked.

”Don't you want to see me?” he joked.

Halia pinched the man on the nose. ”When did you become so cheeky?”

Jackson laughed as his expression turned serious, ”Let's be serious. After meeting with Rawson Zhang today, I realized how big your case was and decided to speak to your Captain at the SPU. We both agreed that this is an international crime and decided to combine forces for this case,” Jackson explained. ”So, from now on, the SPU and Interpol are teaming up and you are directly working under me, Agent Feng.”

Halia looked at Jackson with confusion.

”Directly working under you? Who exactly are you? How did you speak to my Captain so easily? I thought you were just a field agent,” Halia questioned.

Jackson stood up straight, cleared his throat and stuck out his hand, ”Agent Halia Feng, I am the head of Interpol in Hong Kong, Jackson Wu. Nice to officially meet you.”

Halia's eyes opened wide in shock. Jackson was only a few years older than her. How was he in such a senior role at such a young age when she had just graduated from the police academy last year!

She felt proud, yet confused as she thought about what this man's role meant.

At that moment, she suddenly realized something and frowned, ”If you're the head of Interpol in Hong Kong, are we going to have a long-distance relationship when I return to China?”

Jackson couldn't help but laugh.

Was this all she could think about at a time like this?

”I only took on this role to get access to their files. After this case, I am planning to retire from law enforcement and live a normal life. Perhaps, I'll start a family. After all, I've been undercover since I was 18 and I have enough money saved up, as well as residual and passive income, to live comfortably for the rest of my life. Above all, don't forget that I'm a shareholder in this casino.”

Halia looked at the man in confusion, ”Why do you need access to their files?”

”They have some confidential files involving my mother,” Jackson said as he furrowed his brows.
