Chapter 1116

Oliver noticed it too, his face showing a hint of surprise, and without exchanging a word, he and Josefina made a beeline for the exit.

Oliver took the wheel, and Josefina jumped into the passenger seat.

As they sped down the road, Josefina already had Darren on the line. “Darren, we need you to head over to the prison and keep an eye on Dominic. We're on our way."

"Got it."

With that, Josefina hung up. Oliver drove like he was in a high-stakes race, the scenery blurring past them.

"Oliver, step on it!"

“Josie, if I go any faster, I'm worried you won't be able to handle it.”

"I can handle it. Just floor it, now!"

Oliver sighed, a bit exasperated but unable to resist Josefina's urgency, so he pressed the pedal to the metal.

...

When they finally arrived, Dominic was there, tied up and looking just like they remembered, seemingly unfazed by everything around him.

Josefina took a moment to catch her breath, while Oliver stood protectively by her side.

Just then, Darren came rushing in, panting from the effort. He'd been orchestrating everything over the phone and had hustled over as soon as he could.

"What's going on?" Darren asked, breathless.

Oliver handed him a report. "Check this out first."

Darren read through it, and by the time he reached the end, he was frozen in shock. "This guy isn't the real Dominic!" he exclaimed, stunned.

Oliver was just as taken aback. Those folks had managed to pull a switcheroo right under their noses. They'd infiltrated deep!

Darren started firing off messages on his phone and stepped outside to make a call.

Dominic, still tied up, listened in on their conversation as if it didn't concern him, sitting there calmly.

"How did you find out? Wasn't my act convincing enough?" Dominic asked.

Josefina replied, "No matter how

ing you are, you're not

not

. Your body gives awal

s you can't hide Cont

Dominic chuckled, his eyes fixed on Josefina. "You're quite beautiful."

Oliver stepped in front of Josefina, t his eyes dark and menacing as hét

glared at Dominic You're too ugly to be looking at my wife."

Dominic laughed heartily, the false memories painting Oliver as a real villain.

Hearsay is never quite the same as seeing with your own eyes.

"Oliver, don't you want to know where the real Dominic is?" Dominic's words had a strange pull, tempting a response.

Josefina squeezed Oliver's hand and stood with him, shoulder to shoulder.

"They invested so much in you, but

it's a pity. Their tech isn't quite

yet. You slipped up too quick which means they're not as competent as they think."

Provoked, Dominic tried to launch an attack.

Even tied up, he managed to flick a knife hidden in his button.

The blade was deadly, and no one expected such a trick from a button.

Oliver lunged forward, tearing open Dominic's shirt and ripping off the buttons.

Not stopping there, Josefina swiftly administered a shot that knocked Dominic out cold.

Darren returned to a scene of chaos, his eyes wide with shock.

"What happened here?"

Josefina replied, “Darren, he attacked us.”

"What?!" Darren was incredulous.

How did Dominic have a weapon on him?

Their uniforms were standard issue, and the buttons were specially made—how could a knife be hidden there?

Darren felt a chill run down his spine. They needed to get to the bottom of this fast! Any more slip-ups, and he'd be out of a job for sure!
