Chapter: 1504
If he broke his promise, word that Dark Night's Rose was still alive would surely spread.
If Dark Night members were indeed dead, it wouldn't be a concern.
But if they were alive...
Her face grew stern. She was prepared to send them to their doom once more.
“You were Dark Night's best assassin. If they find out you're alive, they will definitely hunt you down." Alice sighed.
Much like Alice was known as Night Cat Nia, Norah was called Rose within Dark Night-a name that held significant weight in the mercenary circles. That was why the members of Flame had been so cautious around her the last time they met.
Alice frowned, “If there are survivors from Dark Night, why have they remained quiet all these years? What are they planning? And who really brought the organization down?"
Norah and Alice had no loyalty to Dark Night. Although the organization had rescued them, only they knew the true nightmares of its rule.
It was a life filled with relentless agony, always fearing the consequences of failing a mission or facing death.
Failure meant expulsion from the organization, with no honor even in death. While part of the organization, they were merely tools for making money.
When the organization crumbled, they felt relieved, silently grateful to whoever had destroyed it and freed them.
Yet Alice's questions were ones that Norah found difficult to address.
"This issue is crucial for us, so I needed to discuss it with you face-to-face," Alice told Norah.
This secret was something they both held, understanding its deep importance.
Norah tapped her slender fingers on the steering wheel. "I suspect Dark Night is plotting something secretly. We might already be their targets. Alice, be cautious during this time."
Alice smiled slightly, asking, "Do you have a plan in mind?"
Her partner was known for confronting challenges directly.
"We need to be proactive and find out what Dark Night is planning since their members have resurfaced," Norah pondered.
Alice mused, "I suspect they're up to no good. Why else would they be secretly following me?"
Dark Night was infamous for mistreating its members, which left Alice with a deep-seated disdain for the group.
Touching her chin thoughtfully, she speculated, "I wonder who, besides us, are the Lucky ones left to survive. If Adair Branson is involved, it's certain they're targeting us."
She cast a quick glance at Norah, who was at the wheel. "Norah, this could be connected to you if it's him," she mentioned.
Previously, within the organization, Adair notoriously pursued Norah under the guise of mission-related activities, though she consistently rebuffed him.
Alice had seen this play out multiple times, and Norah would sometimes discuss it with her.
