Chapter 1121

So, that must be the same for General Ralph.

Just ...

What was the point of all their previous efforts?

Karl said glumly, "It had been so hard for us to find out the truth and know Joyce's true identity, and I

couldn't tell her now."

"Of course. If we tell her right now, she must be so desperate. She had been away from her biological

parents for more than twenty years. They had not yet recognized each other, but they were already innovelbin

such a crisis. She would definitely give up everything to help them out." Luther took over the words.

"This is not a problem that can be solved by giving everything away. The military power is not in the

hands of the government, and the president only a few teams of guards. We have even less recourse."

Karl said, "We all saw those Telecom vehicles. Now the military's internal communication network has

all been cut off, and my contacts never sent me any message after that. Otis's men are loaded with

guns and we can't even enter the door."

"I can find military forces overseas. But how do we get into Pascaylia without a proper reason?"

frowned Luther, "I have plenty of money, and hiring more international mercenaries is not a problem."

"No, it can't rise to an international issue at this time." Karl instantly denied it.

"Besides, Cecelia is only unconscious and her condition is unknown. They have her now, and what if

we act too aggressively and they go straight for Cecelia?"

Luther let out a long sigh, "Joyce has already lost her grandfather, and we can't let her lose her mother

again."

He could not be clearer about what it was like to lose a loved one. His beloved grandmother was killed

by Charlotte, and now he could only endure and wait.”

"There's only one way to do it right now." Karl said.

"What's the solution?" Luther was on his feet.

"Otis is in power, yet the majority of people within the military are still loyal to General Ralph. The

reason why Otis's coup succeeded was because none of them knew exactly what was going on with

Cecelia and General Ralph. Many of the officers were waiting. They would not embrace Otis right

away, but they did not dare to put all their chips on the Heath family either. They all want to give

themselves a way out." Karl analyzed.

"Hmm. So Otis's statement also says he's taking over temporarily." Luther added, "But we've had very

little access to the inner workings of the military before, and we're not sure which people are really

General Ralph's supporters."

"Exactly, if we find the wrong person and he reports directly to Otis, it would only backfire and expose

ourselves." Karl suddenly added as he spoke, "I'm already exposed. Otis uninstalled the listening

program in his phone, and he'll have no trouble tracing it back to me. After all, there are very few

departments with such technology, and the House of Inspection."

"Otis might be alarmed already." Luther looked gloomy, "And, as far as he's concerned, I'm the enemy.

And he just had to bear with it for now."

Darkness enveloped the cold night…

He was now standing under the fading vine trellis, and his shadow was drawn long ahead by the rising

moonlight.

Right now, the road ahead was dark, and he wondered when they could have a turning point?

"Wait." Karl's voice was clear and he said suddenly, "Wait and see what happens. In a battlefield

without the slightest chance of winning, giving up is also a chance. Right now, we should not do

anything, wait. Until the turnaround comes."

"Hmm."

Luther responded. Indeed, there was nothing left to do but to wait.
