Chapter 1245
She drove fast, and by the time she reached the Hurley base, it had only taken her half an hour.
the Hurley base is in a depression with an above-ground entrance that is quite hidden. The rest of thenovelbin
base is underground.
Joyce is not the first time to see this kind of secret base, once she took over the Capital land project,
the Xia family and Luther shared the land, there is also a secret base above, in the underground very
deep. And the Hurley base some similar, even deeper than here, she had done a full set of security
design.
From the entrance, there is a staircase going down, which is very deep and long.
Arriving at the bottom, there is a circular open space with a fire door in front of it.
As if she knew she was arriving, the fire door opened automatically when she landed.
Joyce looked both ways and walked in.
Inside the space is more than she imagined, looking around, there are several hundred square meters.
The decoration is very clean, the floor walls are diatom fireproof paint, the bathroom are integrated
overall. The furniture is all gray and white series.
The most crucial thing is that there is a large sand table model of the Capital in the center.
Cecelia was already waiting for Joyce and when she saw her, "Joyce, what happened, I've just heard
from Luther. I can probably guess what's going on with Otis at the moment."
"Mom. What is he trying to do?"
"Euan actually doesn't have a good relationship with the Xia family. That's why the Xia family has
delayed handing over military power. It is to wait for the next democratically elected president to
succeed him before handing over the military power. The current president, Euan, is too ambitious. I
guess he may have made some kind of agreement with Otis in order to be re-elected himself." Cecelia
said.
Joyce frowned, "In exchange, what does Otis get?"
"Recognition of his existing legal status, which would be what Otis wanted. He must have known about
Charlotte's fall, so he planned ahead. Or, even earlier he had already prepared this move."
"What do we do with the recognition of Otis' military authority?" Joyce didn't quite understand the
connection.
"Divide and conquer." Cecelia's eyes were awe-inspiring, "I recall my close friends as well as the old
Xia family, and you will take command, and from now on the warlords will be divided into two and live in
peace."
"Of course, it's only superficially peaceful. Everyone can show up in public and go their own way. In
reality, sooner or later, there will still be a merger. One side must win for this matter to end." Cecelia
added.
"Me? I'm in command? I ..." Joyce wanted to say that she had never been in touch with warlord affairs,
how could she be in command?
Luther came over to me, "You are the heir of the Heath family in name only, and in accordance with the
usual inheritance system of the Heath family, you are the only one who can take command to convince
the people. You can't do that without our mother alone."
Luther calls Cecelia "Mom" in a smooth and direct manner.
Joyce opened her lips, could not say anything for a while.
Our mother? Luther's name was so smooth and affectionate that she couldn't refute it.
At that moment, the gate of the base opened again.
Before the person arrives, the voice arrives first.
"Auntie, I'm back, I got all the things you wanted."
Joyce frowned, this voice, why so familiar? It seems like I've heard it somewhere before, and it was just
now.
