章 151: Liberation

"What?" I asked, my face completely blank.

"I said, I'm Zero," she repeated casually.

"No, I heard you. But how do you expect me to react to that? You're a criminal—you tried to harm my family."

"Oh no, that wasn't me. That was the guy who sent you the letter."

My mind spun in that moment. 

"What, did you think he would just show up and reveal himself like this?" she added, amused. "He's not that stupid. Anyway, I'm his girlfriend, and I run Zero-Org. Well, internally, we call it Liberation. And, by the way, I'm Ava. So forget about all that 'Zero' stuff—I just wanted to see your cute little reaction."

I narrowed my eyes. "How does it matter if it weren't you directly? Your organization paid the Abramov family."
