Chapter 1978
Madam Quartley was shocked!
What?!
Tremaine had gone missing at the hotel on his wedding day?!
"What's wrong with you? How could you just let Tremaine disappear like that? What were all the soldiers and guards doing?" She asked furiously.
Hogan then said, "Please calm yourself Madam Quartley. Things have already happened, there is no point in venting your emotions. What we need to do now is to search for Tremaine."
She held her breath.
She was with Hogan. She could control her emotions. If it were someone else...
She then asked, "Have you found Tremaine?"
"We still haven't figured out the president's whereabouts. But we did find some clues." Hogan explained: "The president's disappearance may have something to do with Sheldon."
Madam Quartley was shocked to learn this.
Sheldon was involved in this?
"How is this possible?!"
She knew Sheldon very well.
She knew that Sheldon had been serving under Tremaine for many years and that he was an unquestionably loyal subordinate.
"What does Sheldon have to do with this?" She was puzzled. "Sheldon has always been incredibly loyal to Tremaine."
Hogan's eyes flashed with intrigue.
He only agreed partially with what she had said.
"Madam Quartley, on their wedding day, the guest logs had the names of two uninvited guests. One of them was the woman that Montez brought in, Qiana. The other was Sheldon's younger sister and her boyfriend."
"Since one of them was brought in by Montez and the other was allowed in because of Sheldon's sister, the soldiers on duty didn't find it alarming nor did they even report it to the others."
"So we conducted an investigation. The woman Montez brought in with him was Qiana. After she entered the hotel, she went to see Yesseca by herself and didn't make any contact with Tremaine. The one that poses a problem for us is Sheldon's younger sister's boyfriend."
Hogan then paused for a moment, "All we know of him right now is that he is Sheldon's younger sister's boyfriend. We don't know anything else about him yet."
Madam Quartley slowly digested everything Hogan had told her.
She then asked, "Are you saying that Tremaine's disappearance has something to do with this woman named Lessie and the man she brought with her?"
Hogan nodded and then whispered. "Madam Quartley, do you still remember the incident with the nuclear weapon?"
Her face suddenly froze.
Of course she remembered it.
That was a very big deal.
Luckily the situation had been dealt with by Tremaine. If he hadn't done so in time, she couldn't imagine the repercussions. Just then Madam Quartley raised her voice, "Could that incident also have something to do with that woman, Lessie?"
Otherwise, why would Hogan have brought it up?
Hogan nodded and said, "Madam Quartley, you might not be aware of this, but there was an incident before the situation with the nuclear weapon. Tremain had been attacked on the presidential train."
Her face turned pale when she heard this. "What
did you say?!"
Tremaine had never told her about that!
Hogan comforted her, "Don't worry, Madam Quartley, that incident has already passed."
Even so, she was still very unhappy.
Hogan continued, "After these two incidents, Tremaine had always suspected that it was a terrorist group. Moreover, there was news of a spy in Nashaland. He had ordered Sheldon to investigate the matter, but his investigation never yielded any results. He then sent someone else to investigate it. The results of the investigation were released on the day he disappeared."
"What were the results then?" Madam Quartley asked immediately.
Hogan looked solemn. "These acts were committed by the 001 Terrorist Organization. Sheldon's sister happens to be a member of this group." Madam Quartley held her breath.
She knew about this group.
It was an organization that had existed for many years now.
This organization had been trying to split Nashaland apart for years. They were the largest terrorist organization in the country.
When Tremaine's grandfather was still the president, he had sent out soldiers to annihilate their organization. There had been no news of them ever since. She never expected that remnants of their organization were still around.
And now a senior executive of Nashaland, Sheldon, and his sister, were all part of this organization!
No wonder Tremaine was shot at! No wonder his nuclear weapons plan was leaked!
She then said in a trembling voice, "Sheldon is a part of this terrorist organization?"
If that really was the case, then things were very dire indeed.
Sheldon had held a high position for many years. He had gained Tremaine's trust and learned many secrets about Nashaland. If he really was a part of this organization, then Nashaland was in very serious danger.
Hogan added, "Madam Quartley, there is no evidence that proves that Sheldon is a member of the terrorist organization. But, Sheldon also hasn't shown any signs of being against them. The attack on the
train and the leak of the et
weapons plan might not have
involved him. Some things just don't add up. He might be hiding something from us."
"Also, it was very strange for Lessie, his sister, to suddenly make an appearance during Tremaine's wedding. Maybe Sheldon had provided them with information so they were able to get in? We still don't know for sure."
Hogan couldn't provide Madam Quartley with a definite answer.
He neither confirmed nor denied any of her statements.
She then took a deep breath.
She asked with a pale face, "Mr. Welmert, does this mean Tremaine is being held captive by the terrorists? If so, you must send soldiers to rescue him right away!"
Hogan said, "Madam Quartley, rest assured that we are doing all we can to find him, Also, everything that I've revealed to you today must be kept secret Madam Quartley, please keep in mind, you are not to mention a word of this to anyone!"
She understood just how important this was.
She replied, "Don't worry, I won't say a word!"
After Madam Quartley returned to the Quartley Palace, she fell terribly ill.
Tremaine had disappeared and was being held captive by a terrorist group. On top of this, she was already old and was prone to falling sick from immense pressure.
Since Madam Quartley had fallen ill, Yuliana stayed by her side and took care of her.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
This was the best time to prove her loyalty after all.
Madam Quartley was still a very important person in the Quartley Palace and Tremaine respected her. If she held Madam Quartley's support, and Zorion's loyalty, this allowed her to act like a tyrant in the Quartley Palace.
Yuliana was very puzzled with what was going on as she took care of Madam Quartley.
Firstly, Madam Quartley had gone to see Hogan yesterday and then came back much later in the evening. She had asked Madam Quartley about her visit, but she'd refused to tell her anything.
The next day, Madam Quartley had fallen ill.
Besides, there was still no news from Tremaine, he hadn't even called to ask about Madam Quartley.
This didn't make any sense.
Even if Tremaine was adamant in
staying away from Yesseca, that plague goddess, he still would have heard about what was happening at the Quartley Palace. He would have heard that Madam Quartley had fallen sick. Being a filial grandson, he would at least call to check on her! Content belongs to
Even though Tremaine had a cold personality, he had always been filial to Madam Quartley.
Madam Quartley had already fallen asleep so Yuliana called the servants over.
She was going to tell the servants to keep an eye on her.
And to let her know when Madam Quartley was about to wake up, so that she could wait by her side.
Just when Yuliana was about to call the servants, Madam Quartley suddenly opened her mouth. The things she said made Yuliana's hair stand on edge!
