Chapter 3211
"Why have you been following Aquila and Everett for so long?" Max asked,
looking confused.
He thought that even though Aquila was tough, having Everett and Doretta with
him should have made him slower. Plus, Charlie had a lot of people in his group.
"Aquila took Everett and Doretta to the mountains and then vanished. I bet he
had a way out planned already,” Charlie answered. He and his team had
searched the mountains really well but couldn't find them anywhere.
"That explains it," Preston said, a slight smile on his face. Now it made sense
why they hadn't been able to catch them, even with so many people.
"Then, Seth and I split up to look for them. We might have trapped them, and
that's when Aquila appeared out of nowhere, surprising me and hurting two of my
team," Charlie shared, sounding a bit upset.
"Good thing you sent the signal in time so we could find you fast," Max said,
clearly relieved. Charlie and two of his team were hurt, and the other two couldn't
stand up to Aquila alone. Without extra help, they all could have been in trouble.
Charlie looked uneasy, not sure if he should say more.
"What's going on?" Max noticed Charlie seemed worried.
Charlie paused for a moment, then asked Nicole, "What do we know about
Doretta?" "Not a lot. She's Ellar's cousin who came here looking for work and got
mixed up with Everett," Nicole answered, showing she didn't know much more.
"So, what's with her?" Preston asked, curious.
Charlie seemed lost in thought. "It's strange. She might be the reason I'm here
safe."
Everyone was surprised. "What do you mean?" "She saved me. She already
helped me once in the parking basement and again during Aquila's surprise
attack. If she hadn't distracted them at that moment, I could have been hurt
worse," Charlie explained, his face serious.
"She must have been scared," Preston said with a shrug.
"No, I'm certain of it; her action was intentional. She secretly tried to help me,"
Charlie asserted confidently.
He might not understand Doretta's intentions, but he was sure that her actions
were meant to aid him.
"What's going on here?" Max also seemed shocked, especially since Doretta had
been bought over by Everett, and even Emma had been kidnapped because of
her.
"Well find out once we catch her," Preston said nonchalantly, then paused,
furrowing his brows in speculation. "Is she trying to earn a reprieve by making
amends for her crimes? Maybe she thinks that if she's bound to be caught,
helping you could lead to a lighter sentence.
"It doesn't seem like that. If she hadn't made a noise at that moment, I would
have been dead." Charlie still felt that wasn't the case.
He understood that without Doretta's intervention, Aquila and his crew would
have easily slipped away without a second thought.
"Maybe she just wanted to play both sides, you know, with how sneaky she can
be," Preston mused.
The room went quiet as everyone contemplated Doretta's motives.

Preston was speechless. "That's quite the deep cover," he managed to say,

It was unbelievable to think that Doretta was Zane's plant all along.

"So that's what it was," Charlie exclaimed, finally grasping the situation.
