Chapter 70 - Headquarters (1/2)

The headquarters was owned and designed by Luke Wilson. Nina remembered the first time she set foot on that underground facility.

Outside, it was a simple house near the ocean, wooden walls and ceilings complete with furniture. But inside, there was a secret door behind the fireplace with a stair going to the basement.

It looks like a dead-end at its rear, but a door suddenly opened when Luke spoke, leading them to an elevator. It was an underground facility. The girls were obviously not aware of the place, so they were surprised. The boys were the only ones who knew about it.

”I built this place for a dangerous situation like this. Our enemy was so elusive. They know our every move. This place is not yet complete, but it'll be ready in a few weeks. The door in the basement has voice recognition, so it can only be opened by the leaders of the security team and me. I have created a system that will allow us to hack every computer, mobile phone, and all electronic devices in the country.” Luke explained when he noticed our confused face.

The guy was smart and a tech genius, but they didn't know he could actually create something like that.

”Is that legal? If someone knows you have something like that, it'll be dangerous. They might target you.” Alora, his fiance, was astonished and worried at the same time.

”I know. But this is the only way I can find out who's targeting you. Besides, the only person who can access the mainframe is me. And the only people who know about this area were our friends and our security team.” Luke answered.

”When did you start building this?” Peggy asked.

”A few years back. Initially, this was A.E Corporation's headquarters. Still, when I found out about my family's and Alora's enemy, I transformed it to a more secure and secluded location that no one can easily enter.” Luke replied.

”Is this place at the bottom of the ocean?” Nina asked when they felt that they had been in the elevator for 15 minutes.

”Yes. And the whole facility has an invisible protective shield; that's why government radars can't detect it.” Andrew explained.

”And this was all designed by Luke. We just helped him with the planning and operations here.” Jayden butted in.

Nina and the girls were in awe. They didn't know that Luke was a super genius.

”And here's the real interior of the place.” Percy proudly said when the elevator opened.

The first floor was huge. It's like a hotel lobby with a reception desk in the center with a pair of girl twins dressed in black suits.

”Hello sir. Are you staying the night?” One girl asked.

”Yes. We all are. Just prepare five rooms for us. And this is my fiance, Alora Smith.” Luke introduced Alora.

”It's a pleasure to finally meet you, Miss Alora. My name is Mildred, and this is my sister Winona.” The girls smiled widely.

The girls were quiet and were still surprised by how big the lobby was. It has a 20-feet jaw-dropping sculpture of an angel, and behind it was another elevator.

”That looks like Alora!” Emily shouted, looking at the sculpture's face.

”It is her!” Luke exclaimed.
