Chapter 512:

After such weight was lifted off his shoulders, he could finally redirect his energy toward his investigation work.

Today, Ashton received a call from the hospital. After two days of treatment, Milena’s recovery had made great progress. Her physical condition improved a lot.

It was such encouraging news for Ashton. So, without hesitation, he put everything on hold and rushed to the hospital to see her.

After all, he hadn’t gotten a good look at the secret base that day, so he was eager to hear the details from Milena.

When he arrived at Milena’s ward, Ashton found that she was alone, taking her herbal soup.

He had personally prescribed this medication for her. It was effective for detoxification, but it had a terrible taste.

Still, she swallowed the soup with ease. It was as if she were just drinking ordinary water.

While watching Milena, Ashton was worried about whether the toxic gas had affected her facial nerves. But suddenly, she looked at him with a smile. Although the smile was fleeting, it made him feel relieved.

Milena greeted Ashton, “Mr. Baldwin, thank you for coming to visit me.”

Ashton walked to the bedside and sat on a chair. He looked her up and down as if scrutinizing her. For some reason, he still felt a bit anxious.

“No need to be too formal and polite. We are friends, right? You can just call me by my first name. How do you feel now?”

However, Milena shook her head and replied earnestly, “You are my superior. I need to show you some respect. As for my health, I’ve…”

“Regained almost sixty percent of my strength. I only need a few more days to rest, and I should be good.”

He nodded and was on the verge of asking about the incident in the sewers, but Milena beat him to it, saying, “Actually, there’s something important I need to tell you. I used our intelligence network to investigate and found out that the abandoned warehouse was owned by a shell company, a subsidiary of Sup Group. Also, when they competed with your branch for the land last time, they did it in the name of that shell company. If they had won, the Dark Night Organization would have had a much better place to operate.”

This was significant news for Ashton. Although he had long suspected a connection between Sup Group and the Dark Night Organization, he had never found solid proof.

All the information Milena had provided could be a game-changer. It would be very helpful in shaking things up for Sup Group.

Milena noticed that Ashton had been silent for a while. She couldn’t help but ask, “Now that we have obtained evidence, should we go after the Marquez family who controls Sup Group?”

Ashton nodded subconsciously. But he quickly clarified, “We will definitely deal with the Marquez family, but not for now. Compared to the Dark Night Organization, they’re not that significant. The attack they attempted recently flopped, but they are not backing down just like that. I think the attack at the station was just a test run. Most likely, they have a bigger plan, which is more tragic. If we make a move now, we will only catch the Marquez family members. The Dark Night Organization will definitely relocate. Once they’re off the hook, it won’t be easy to get them back.”
