“Uh-huh,” replied Zeke.
In huge contrast with Zeke's stoic nod, Lacey smiled and asked, “There's a bedroom right there. Why didn't you
sleep inside?”
Sole Wolf shook his head and replied, “Nah, that bed won't do because it's too soft. I just can't get comfortable.
Hardwood is so much better.”
After that, he shifted his attention to Nancy and Dawn. “Hey Dawnie, you've grown taller. And Nancy! Wow, did you
lose weight?”
Dawn rolled her eyes at Sole Wolf in annoyance then complained, “Can you wipe the saliva off your lips before you
do anything else? Geez, you're an adult, so why are you still salivating in your sleep?”
Sole Wolf chuckled awkwardly as he wiped the saliva off.
Zeke formally informed, “Sole Wolf, your mission is over. Lacey will stay here in your place.”
Sole Wolf's smile faded right away. He seemed serious when he asked, “Zeke, isn't that a little too dangerous? The
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDulliouds specialized in surprises and ambushes. If we were to make even the smallest mistake...”
Zeke sighed. “If possible, I would want to keep Lacey out of danger as well, but having you pretend to be Lacey...
My gosh, even a retarded kid can tell you're a fake. Things will be bad if we accidentally alert our enemy.”
Sole Wolf had more to say, but Dawn and Nancy beat him to it. “Zeke, let us stay here with Lacey. We can watch
out for each other.”
“She's right. At the very least, we can shout if anything dangerous were to happen.”
Zeke nodded. “Okay, then you girls will stay here too. Don't worry. We'll be hiding close by, and we will notice
something is off before you even detect anything. You will be safe, even if you don't know it.”
Zeke and Sole Wolf left after they helped the girls settle down.
Lacey saw the dark circles under Dawn's eyes and suggested, “Dawnie, Nancy, why don't you guys go to the other
room to sleep a little more? I'll watch out for the two of you, so everything will be fine.”
Dawn shook her head. “It's fine, Lacey. I can hold on. Besides, this is a great opportunity for us to discuss some
corporate matters and think about how we can save the company.”
Despite those words, Dawn was asleep on the sofa two minutes later.
It seemed she would never be free of her bad habit and will always fall asleep at the same time every day.
Zeke and Sole Wolf didn't go far. Instead, they hid themselves away somewhere at the end of the dark corridor.
The lights were still on, but Zeke and Sole Wolf hid their essence and merged with the darkness, so it was virtually
impossible to detect them.
Zeke also released a mild energy field that engulfed the entire floor.
He did that so he could immediately sense it if anyone were to approach.
Zeke and Sole Wolf ended up waiting there for hours, but nothing strange happened. No one, not even a fly,
showed up.
By then, Zeke and Sole Wolf had already given up. They assumed that the Dullioud wouldn't show up that night.
The two of them were about to go get Lacey and the others to take them home when it happened. A group of
people strolled into Linton Group as if everything was fine.
Zeke scanned them for a bit before he realized that those were the janitors that were sent by a sanitization
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcompany.
The corporation had hired a third party to deal with their office's sanitization, and the janitors were there as part of
their normal routine.
Still, Zeke lowered his voice and reminded, “Sole Wolf, pay close attention here. There is a good chance that the
members of the Dullioud are among the janitors.”
Sole Wolf nodded. “Don't worry, Zeke. I am monitoring each and every one of them.”
Every janitor was responsible for cleaning two floors, and a rather plump middle-aged lady was the one responsible
for cleaning the floor Lacey was on.
The janitor had a cap and a face mask on, so her face was hidden, making it difficult to determine whether she was
a man in disguise.
Zeke and Sole Wolf both paid extra attention to her.
As the janitor was sweeping the floor in the corridor, Zeke called Lacey. “Lacey, a janitor will go to clean your office
soon. Don't be surprised or scared if she does anything strange. Definitely don't reveal that this is a trap. Also, stand
right there and don't move a muscle if the janitor were to try to kill you because I will be there to keep you safe,
okay?”
