Chapter 258
“Moreover, I like cooking for you. Please satisfy my wish,” Kenneth said. The passion in his eyes made Cassandra not bear to refuse him.
It seems that what happened yesterday was just an illusion when he was around.
Especially when she saw Jeremiah’s message this morning, her heart seemed to be healed by him.
[Elaine, Kenneth is such a jerk. Why don’t you consider dating someone else? He’s not a good match for you.]
[I know many outstanding young men who are only two or three years older than you. I’ll introduce them to you. You can choose better. Kenneth is nine years older than you, and he will age faster than you!]
[There is a generation gap when your ages are three years apart. Look, there will be three generation gaps between Kenneth and you. How can you get along well with each other in the future?]
[What’s more, he showed off his affection on Instagram! Shame on him!]

When she saw the post, she gave him a thumbs–up anonymously.
Jeremiah sensed it and immediately reply her with an ellipses.
However, Cassandra ignored him. It seemed that the training was not intense enough for Jeremiah, so he still had free time to swipe his phone. He needed more training.
When she went downstairs, she saw Kenneth cooking breakfast for her. At that moment, she didn’t feel her family members were that important.
She would be happy to have him only.
When they finished breakfast and were about to walk out of the door, their phones rang at
the same time.
“Hello?”
“There’s an urgent task, Go back to the base immediately and get Falcon Special Operation Force ready to go,” Kenneth’s supervisor commanded.
“Got it!” Kenneth replied seriously.
Cassandra also received an urgent task. The operation required technical support from the information security department, so she was called to assemble immediately.
Others outside Drieso also needed to rush to the designated place as soon as possible.
They looked at each other and said in unison, “It’s an urgent task.”
“I’ll drive to the National Security Bureau by myself. You can go back to the base now,” Cassandra said in a deep voice.
“All right. There’s no time to lose,” Kenneth replied, looking very serious.
“Okay,” Cassandra echoed.
After they said goodbye to each other, Cassandra drove straight to the National Security Bureau.
When she arrived at the Director’s Office, she found she was a little late. Her team members from Drieso had already arrived.
When Spark saw Cassandra coming in, he hurriedly stepped forward and greeted her. “Emery, long time no see.”
“Long time no see,” Cassandra replied.
“Well, stop saying hi to each other. There is a very urgent task that needs you to work with the Falcon Special Operations Force,” Daniel interrupted. It was so urgent that they needed to leave right away.
“Yes, sir!” they answered in unison decisively.

assau
same urgent task as Kenneth this morning.
“You need to hand in your mobile phones when you perform the task, and we will hand out cell phones for your use,” Daniel said. He wanted to collect their phones right away, but he decided to do so at the destination because he still needed to collect the phones of other members at that time.
Daniel didn’t explain what the task was, ready to leave with them.
“Director Walker, I didn’t bring a change of clothes,” Cassandra suddenly said.
No one told her that she needed to leave Drieso to perform a task. She previously thought it could be solved in Drieso, so she drove here without any luggage.
Daniel was stunned and then realized that Emery didn’t bring anything.
“So what do you do now? The plane will take off in an hour. We’re going to fly in Falcon Special Operations Force’s plane,” he said.
“Are we setting off from the airport or Falcon Special Operations‘ base?” Cassandra asked.
“Falcon Special Operations Force’s base,” Daniel replied.
“I see,” Cassandra replied.
She called Hugo and asked him to put her laptop and two changes of clothes into her suitcase.
Then she called Kenneth. Fortunately, he was far away from the base and hadn’t arrived yet. “What’s up, Cassie?” he asked.
“Please ask Ethan to go to my villa and take my suitcase to your base. We will work with you to complete the task and fly to the destination together with you guys,” Cassandra said.
“Okay, I’ll have Ethan go fetch it for you,” Kenneth answered.
Cassandra hung up the phone. Daniel looked at her as if he had seen a ghost.
He thought, ‘Emery is indeed a Dig shot.
Judging from her tone, the man on the other end of the line should be the head of Falcon Special Operations Force. She asked him to serve her. That was unbelievable!
“Shall we go now?” Cassandra asked.
Daniel couldn’t help but ask, “Are you sure there’s time for that?”
“Yes, I am sure,” Cassandra replied.

At Falcon Special Operations Force Base, everyone was ready to go. After Kenneth changed his uniform, Yannick and Kayden began to assemble their men.
“According to the superior’s order, a riot broke out in Zosteylor, endangering people’s safety. It is estimated that more than 20 Clusians were in severe physical danger in Zosteylor. What we need to do this time is evacuate them from Zosteylor safely. The National Security Bureau has sent some staff from the information security department to cooperate with us. We must succeed in this mission! Understand?”
They must not only succeed but also accomplish the task without getting hurt.
“Yes, sir! We promise we’ll complete the mission!” the soldiers said in unison.
By the time Cassandra and the others arrived, Kenneth had come up with a rescue plan, ready to go.
When Daniel met Kenneth, Daniel said to him seriously, “Commander Zelinski, I have notified everyone in the information security department, but some of them live outside Drieso. So I will ask them to fly straight to Zosteylor. I’ll trouble you to pick them up at that time.”
His ability was limited. All his men were technical masters, but they were not good fighters, so he needed someone to protect them.
“Don’t worry, Director Walker. I will arrange for someone to pick them up,” Kenneth replied.
He glanced at Cassandra out of the corner of his eye. He knitted his brows and kind of worried about her.
Zosteylor was currently at war. He didn’t want Cassandra to risk her life.
However, she was in charge of the information security department.
“Then I’m rest assured,” Daniel said.
Everybody got on the plane, heading to Zosteylor.
On the plane, those soldiers who were familiar with Cassandra began to greet her. “Ms. Yates, we are working together again. What an honor!”
“I’m honored, too,” Cassandra answered.
However, Jeremiah was a little unhappy. He sat next to Cassandra and asked in a reproachful tone, “Why the hell are you here? What a dangerous place Zosteylor is! Do you have a death wish?”
Cassandra glanced at Jeremiah and asked, “You guys can go. Why can’t I?”
“We are soldiers. It’s our duty to protect civilians. What are you doing there?” Jeremiah said, taking it for granted.
“It seems that the training you’ve done these days is not in vain,” Cassandra chuckled.
“I’m not kidding with you,” Jeremiah said.
“Jeremiah, do you think you can defeat me? Can they defeat me with the weapons they have?” Cassandra said seriously. “I’m not that weak. I can protect myself. Just do your job.”
Moreover, the two most important people in her life participated in this mission, so she was very fortunate to fight alongside Kenneth again and protect Jeremiah.
