Chapter 425 - Help...My Wife is a Spy (Ending) (2/2)
Halia didn't have her normal phone with her; she had no pockets on her dress to carry it in. Plus, her handbag was down in the ballroom. But...she did have her private encrypted phone attached to her thigh. This phone was specially designed by Interpol so it could never be traced nor spied on, and only a few selected people had the number to this phone: Trisha and her BTAs. Halia had regular meetings with both, so they were specifically told to never ring the phone unless there was an emergency. At that very moment, Trisha, Orca, Hummingbird, and Wolf were all in the bas.e.m.e.nt headquarters; they couldn't possibly be calling her. So, there was only one possibility: something had happened to Sasquatch.
Halia placed Laurie into Jackson's arms and quickly picked up her phone.
”Captain, I captured someone that appears to know Odin's real identity!” Sasquatch exclaimed over the phone. ”Supposedly, he has a cabin in Iceland!”
Halia's eyes lit up when she heard this. Iceland? That was exactly around the area where they were tracking the fifth Super Soldier. Could Odin be in Iceland? This was massive news!
She quickly hung up the phone and looked apologetically at her husband, ”I need to notify my BTAs of something extremely important. I'll meet you back at the ballroom.”
Jackson looked at his wife and nodded with understanding. He had been in her position before and he understood the nature of the job. ”Take your time. I'll entertain the guests,” he whispered.
Halia was grateful for his understanding. She placed a kiss on her husband and daughter's foreheads, pulled off her high-heeled shoes, and ran back inside to catch the elevator back down to the headquarters.
As Jackson watched his wife run inside, Father Feng approached with curiosity, ”Where is she going?”
Jackson laughed dotingly, ”Working...”
Although it wasn't the right time to be working, Jackson was not mad. His wife had an extremely important job that literally saved lives, so he understood. All he could do was lift his daughter in his arms and chuckle helplessly.
Father Feng laughed and shook his head. He also understood that he couldn't be mad at his daughter.
Laurie looked at her father like she understood what was happening and said in a comforting voice, ”Papa...”
With a smile, Jackson looked into his daughter's eyes and sighed dotingly, ”Help...my wife is a spy!”
