After knowing Who She Is They Kneeled novel Chapter 120

Chapter 120

The Patriarch leaned on his dragon-head cane. “They’re not easy to find. After that battle back then, they now report to the highest level of command.”

“They’ve surfaced again in the last three months.”

Jonathon lowered his voice. “I hear it’s their Boss’s idea. Half official, half personal.”

The Patriarch’s eyes were sharp. “You handle it. As long as you can find her, the Caldwells will pay any price.”

This was an old man’s hope for his granddaughter, a hope that she would come home.

When Annelise received the message, she raised an eyebrow.

On the other end, the representative from General Electric, Maisie Raymond, was still talking, “Annelise, are we helping them or not?”

Annelise was wearing a Bluetooth headset, still in the traditional alleyway, a faint smile on her face. “I was just warned not to do business with the Caldwells.”

Maisie scoffed. “Who? Who’s that stupid?”

Annelise idly swirled her teacup. “You’re in charge of the Dark Web now. If you want to take the job, take it.”

Maisie sounded embarrassed. “Annelise, you founded the Dark Web alliance from the very beginning. You’ll always be our Boss. Even Lurk Cipher is with you now, and he only listens to you.”

Annelise glanced at Lenny. “He has a brain injury and can’t remember some things. But it’s fine. If you want, I can lend him to you for a while.”

Maisie was so scared she quickly waved her hands. “No, no, no, Annelise! He’s only well-behaved when he’s with you. My small place isn’t big enough for him to tear apart.”

Annelise just hummed in response and said no more.

Maisie asked tentatively, “Annelise, when are you coming back to Brookford?”

“All the old-timers are waiting for you.”

The

Annelise put down her teacup and looked at the stream of people pouring into the clinic. “Soon.”

Maisie lowered her voice. “Did you start a livestream?”

“Darion Haney saw it. Even though you didn’t show your face, he thinks it’s you and is going to Criford to bring you back.”

Annelise said calmly, “Looks like my livestream is pretty effective. You guys can even see it in Brookford.”

Maisie laughed. “With your god-like medical skills, it’s only in a small city like Criford that no one connects you with Dr. Miracle.”

Annelise filled the cup with hot water. “Alright, I’m busy here. When Darion gets here, tell him to keep a low profile. The old lady is old and can’t handle any shocks.”

Maisie adjusted his suit and tie. “I’m afraid it’s too late. You know Darion. Not making a scene isn’t his style.”

“Flashy enough, indeed.”

Annelise suddenly noticed the TV hanging in the clinic. It was broadcasting a business interview from a local Criford station.

A group of Criford’s top executives were there, along with some officials.

The reporter asked with a smile. “We heard that Darion is planning to invest in our Criford. Is that true?”

Darion looked to be in his forties, sharp and energetic. He wore a crisp suit, had a strong business aura, and was smoking a big cigar, which fit his style as someone who started out as a Coal Baron.

The reporter was a bit confused. What did this have to do with the ideas of young people?

Darion continued his praise, “For example, Criford’s medical sector is doing very well, especially the younger genera- tion.”
