Chapter 418
John took Cassandra back to the military residential compound excitedly. Kenneth had no choice but to follow them.
As soon as John walked into the house, he yelled, “Selena, Lydia, come out! Cassie, Kenneth, and Eddie are back! They will stay for dinner!”
He was excited that the operation was a success with no casualties. He felt so proud of them.
They used to get killed every time they caught a drug dealer, but with the help of Faye, they all came back safe and sound.
Besides, they made Simon suffer, which was a great comfort to them.
Cassandra didn’t know how to deal with John’s hospitality. The houses in the military residential compound were so close to each other that John’s yelling drew all the commanding officers who lived there.
People who lived here were trusted by the state and had been nice to Kenneth.
Although Cassandra had nothing to hide from them, she was still afraid to talk to them.
Daniel was the first one to come out. As soon as he saw Cassandra, he couldn’t help asking, “Where have you been? I called you and texted you but never got a reply from you. What if the National Security Bureau has an important task for you?”
He was so worried because Cassandra had never been out of contact for this long before, except for the first two months of her return to the Yates residence when she had not only been out of contact for several days but was about to quit her job. She might have left the National Security Bureau if he hadn’t insisted that she took some time off.
Cassandra disappeared for a week this time. Daniel was going to ask her to give a year–end summary on behalf of the information security department, but he couldn’t find her. He thought she had had an accident.
Fortunately, she came back safely.
Cassandra was stunned by his roar, so she said in a small voice, “I went to Hydias. It was urgent and I couldn’t pick up the phone in time.”
Hearing the word “Hydias“, Daniel was more furious. “Don’t you know it’s

dangerous there these days? What if you get killed?”
Daniel took Cassandra as his daughter. He felt sorry for all the things she went through, so he always cared a lot about her.
John couldn’t stand it anymore, so he interrupted, “What’s wrong with you, Daniel? Cassic just came back. Why are you yelling at her? She made a great contribution this time. All you need to do is compliment her, okay?“.
Daniel glared at John. He was just angry with her for always risking her life, and he knew that she wouldn’t listen if he didn’t lose his temper.
After a short silence, Daniel asked with an awkward look, “Did you get hurt?”
Cassandra smiled warmly and shook her head. “No.”
Daniel finally breathed a sigh of relief. He stared at John and asked, “What do mean by ‘she made a great contribution‘?”

John told Daniel about the operation in Hydias as well as the fact that Cassandra and Faye were the same person. Hearing this, Daniel was shocked.
He worked for the National Security Bureau and ran the information security department, so he knew everything that was going on online. He knew what Faye had done but what he didn’t expect was that Faye and Cassandra were the same
person.
“You’re not even nineteen years old, kid. How dare you go undercover like those soldiers? Aren’t you afraid to meet a double agent and be betrayed by him? Don’t do this again. Leave it to the police and the soldiers. You don’t have to risk your life
for these missions.”
A girl her
age shouldn’t be doing something so dangerous. It was a job for “adults“.
“I won’t do it again because the two drug dealers in Hydias and the foreign drug dealer Steven are all arrested,” Cassandra briefed him on the current situation.
Daniel was proud to hear that. He turned around and said to John, “The three of them did a great job this time. How are you going to reward them?”
Eddie, Kenneth, and Cassandra were speechless.
Lydia had already come to the corner of the second floor, but since Daniel was talking to Cassandra, she found it inappropriate to interrupt them, so she didn’t downstairs until they had finished talking.

Hearing her voice, Eddie became excited immediately. He missed his wife so much!
Just as he stretched out his hand to hug Lydia, she passed him and ran to Cassandra, who was prepared for this or she would be knocked down.
Lydia said with overjoy, “You’re finally back, Ms. Yates. I haven’t seen you for a long time.”
Lydia not only hugged Cassandra but also rubbed her face against hers.
She thought, ‘Ms. Yates‘ face is so smooth. I just can’t have enough of it.‘
While she was doing this, Eddie and Kenneth stared at her gloomily.
Kenneth hadn’t hugged Cassandra in a long time since the mission began. Now they were back but the first person to hold her was Eddie’s wife.
Kenneth was pissed off.
Eddie had the same idea. He thought with an unhappy face, ‘Didn’t Lydia miss me? I wasn’t the first person she hugged!
‘It seems that I have to teach her a lesson tonight.‘
Thinking of this, he said unhappily, “Babe.”
Having noticed the displeasure in his tone, Lydia came back to her senses, let go Cassandra, and turned to look at him.
“Come and help me in the kitchen, Lydia. Leave them alone.”
Lydia breathed a sigh of relief. “One second, Mom!”
Lydia loved her mother–in–law so much because she saved her just in time.
Cassandra felt that it was inappropriate for her to sit and talk with these men, so she said at once, “I’ll join you, Mrs. Frey.”
