Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 1542

But he was already in Astronia, what could she do?

She took a deep breath, and all her words coalesced into one simple message.

[Stay safe.]

[Maja, don't worry, I'll be back as soon as I can. I've just arrived and I'm not sure of the situation here. I'm worried about being tracked, so I'll switch my phone on sporadically. If you can't reach me, don't panic, I'll update you every three days.]

The more he said, the more he feared Maja would be upset, so he added three words.

[Is that okay?]

What else could Maja do? She knew all too well that his swift action was because Augus was in dire straits.

And considering Cynthia's condition, it was imperative to investigate the research facility as soon as possible.

[Okay.]

Seeing her reply with a single word, Ian knew she must be angry, and his heart clenched.

He was never good at using emojis when chatting, but now he painstakingly chose a few that represented kisses.

Even if Maja was fuming, those emojis would extinguish her rage.

Having calmed Maja down, Ian promptly turned off his phone.

Two hours later, his man returned.

"Sir, that hospital has a camera every three steps. If it were just a normal hospital, there would be no need for such security."

It wasn't just unnecessary; in a place where medical facilities were lacking, cameras were usually installed only in very important locations.

The hospital's excessive surveillance screamed that something fishy was going on.

"Any other findings?"

"Yes, the bodies donated by volunteers should be marked for medical research, but this hospital had no such detailed labels. Plus, I pretended to be a patient and accidentally stumbled into the morgue, only to be escorted out by armed guards."

The morgue, the place where dead bodies are kept.

"Also, the main officials here seem to have perfectly normal families, but digging deeper, we found all their identities were bought."
