บท 454: The empire has secrets

"Sooo.." she drawled on. "What do you make of it?"

Shaken out of a stupor, Esong looked at the video which had restarted and shook his head in disbelief. One question at a time, he decided. He would get the answers out of her slowly.

"How?" He asked, astonished.

"How what?" She asked.

"You do realize that this right here is not normal, right?" He emphasized. "I am blown away by these epic revelations of yours tonight. Right now I am wondering if I married the greatest spy in the universe."

She looked at him with a sharp and focused gaze.

"Talk, stop dawdling." She told him.

Esong bit his lips and looked away from her. He looked at the sky as he contemplated deeply on the issue at hand. By law, now that he knew she was behind the video he was obligated to report it.

He was a man who always believed in duty. But what if duty put his most loved one in harms way?
