Chapter 1214

A Chess Game

Sabrina was rendered speechless.

Staring at his flippant attitude, she was beyond exasperated.

She tried hard to calm herself down. Never mind. At least he knows how to behave when he goes
outside this room.

“So should I head down the mountain today?”

“Yes, please hurry. I have no idea how my brother is doing in the mental hospital. It’s better if you can
find Grayson first after you arrive. Remember not to let anyone discover you,” Sabrina reminded with
concern.

The man nodded while eating the breakfast Sabrina had prepared.

“Ms. Hayes, you’re a good cook. Much better than those women I knew back then.”

“What are you talking about? Do you think I don’t dare to punch you?”

Finally losing her calm, Sabrina rolled up her sleeves.

Devin… No. It should be Edmund.

Edmund immediately finished up his breakfast and ran out of the room.

F*ck! Why would Devin fall in love with such a violent woman? Do all military men like this type of
woman because they might be more feisty in bed?

The infamous Edmund Cooper from Yorksland indeed had a dirty mind.



As Edmund left the room abruptly, he did not realize someone was watching him from behind. The
figure hid in the shade of the trees, staring at him until he disappeared into the horizon.

So it seems like all this is Sebastian’s scheme. I wonder how he’s holding up in that horrible place.
Nonetheless, this move finally gives us hope to turn things around. But how did he manage to conduct
such a plan from the psychiatric hospital? And how much did he sacrifice to achieve it?

Sasha’s heart clenched in pain as she gazed beyond the mountain with reddened eyes.

“Mrs. Hayes?”

“Yes, Master?”

Sasha turned around and noticed the old monk approaching. She immediately wiped the tears off her
face.

The old monk nodded faintly. “Are you worried about him? You shouldn’t be. I suppose they merely
want to know more about the military base from him. After all, he was the one who built the troop.
Surely they will need to consult him. He’s a smart guy. He’ll know how to handle it.”

“Huh?”

Sasha’s face went paler upon hearing that.

They want to know more about the military base? That would be worse then!

…

Meanwhile, Edmund was brought to the military base as soon as he came down from the mountain.

“Devin, you’re finally back! Nice move! We really thought you were dead.”



Arriving at the military base, those Devin knew started joking around with him.

Edmund shrugged his shoulders slightly.

“Well, how else could I trick you guys into showing your true colors?”

“You…”

They were rendered speechless by his words.

The military base used to obey the orders from the Jadesons. Most of the troops here were trained by
Jonathan, and when Devin took over, he managed to build a special force that intimidated the whole
world.

With that, the entire army was utterly loyal to the Jadesons.

Hence, after Louis seized power, the only way for the army to submit to him was to get rid of the
original men.

The men who just teased Edmund were obviously the new recruits.

Edmund pulled out a chair and sat down.

“Speak. Why did you take me here?”

“Why do you think? You’re no longer a leader here. Shouldn’t you hand over what’s in your hands?”

“In my hands?” Edmund displayed a confused look. “What do you mean? Are you talking about my
gun? Or all the medals that I’ve won? I can give you the gun, but I won all those medals with my own
effort. I’m not obliged to give them to you.”



“Devin Jadeson!”

His words stirred an uproar among those men.

“Don’t act dumb with us. You know what I’m talking about! The special forces that you led had a special
communication method and code system when you guys went out on missions. You’re the only one
who knows about it. Hand them over now! Don’t test my patience!”

The spokesperson for the men slapped the table fiercely and pointed his finger toward Edmund.

Edmund narrowed his eyes slightly.

What a bunch of fools! Do they expect a former commander to hand over something like this? Why
don’t they create a new system themselves? After all, Devin created it all by himself back then.

Edmund pretended to ponder for a while and then put on a smile.

“Okay. I’ll tell you, but only if you let me meet my brother.”

“Keep on dreaming!”

The man was beyond exasperated upon hearing Edmund’s suggestion.
