Under Major Louis, he had more than 150 members under men. While she was recruited two years ago, the men who went towards the Manoban mansion were recruited just last year. They were still training and their actions put the whole team in shame. It won't just affect her or the ones who went to look for Ruby Jane, it will affect all the seniors. And her chief will have to respond to his seniors.

Charlotte checked the top trending news of Mocon and the country.

#1 M Industries' negligence cost three lives.

#2 Is this the ugly side of Skylar Industries?

#3 Military abusing the power.

Charlotte straight clicked on the news and watched the video clearly stating that 'Military misusing his power to bully a lady.'

It also had a video captured from the car dashboard camera. Ruby Jane's name was kept private for security reasons.

"Charlotte, you shouldn't have touched her." A voice sounded behind her. Charlotte turned around and saw one of the seniors who had stopped them from going behind Ruby Jane.

Charlotte questioned out of curiosity, "Sergeant, who is Ruby Jane?"

He sat down next to her as he shook his head. He wasn't completely aware. "I am not entirely certain. Have you heard of Evans from country S?" Looking at her confused, he continued to brief, "Their major business out in 5 fields, 20 sectors is telecommunication networks."

Charlotte seemed to recall and nodded.

He nodded, "Insider news says she is their daughter and the country S's ministry said to be in contact with the higher administration on the request of Mr. Evans. Do you think she will need to do money laundering? Or use drugs? Why will she take that risk?"

Charlotte wanted to shake her head and say Ruby Jane is Lisa's Cupcake who was studying in Mocon. But she sealed her lips so that she doesn't create another problem for her chief.

She also understood why she was punished with an explanation. If Ruby Jane is Evans, her identity should be confidential or the threat to her life would be high.

"Then Seungri?" He particularly seemed to attack Ruby Jane.

Their conversation continued until Charlotte was summoned.

At the other end,

The investigation was smooth but it won't be closing sooner so Ruby Jane got to know the case might be transferred to the drug control department. She wanted to facepalm herself as Clark William got a chance to think she deals with drugs.

She had thought Clark might come around and she could use him to attack Seungri.

She wasn't allowed to talk long with her detained employees, she didn't want to use any power either so she followed the rules.

She was leaving when a tall sturdy man in a complete set of military badges on his chest, stars on his shoulders strode in a stoic cold face.

His brown sharp eyes quickly brushed over the people inside before settling on Ruby Jane. Even though it stayed for a brief second, he seemed to be trying to bore a hole to her soul.

A flicker of surprise flashed in his eyes while he looked ahead. Her extreme calmness and undisturbed gaze back at him was something he hadn't expected.

The captain who greeted him quickly stopped Ruby Jane, "Ms. Evans."

When Ruby Jane turned around, the captain introduced them, "Major Louis, she is the lady your team tried to intimidate. Ms. Evans, he is Major Louis, head of this team."
