Chapter 1682 Revealing Her Identity

Despite being unfamiliar with the Mafia game, Carlos could fully grasp the implications - Wynter was turning her suspicion onto him.

His anxiety was evident. After all, most of the personnel arrangements at the lowest levels were handled by him. Olivian would at most sign off on them and wouldn't bother with such minor, detailed matters.

Wynter observed him with a growing smile. "Whether I'm Mr. Munn Senior's disciple or not doesn't affect how I choose to handle things."

As she spoke, she tilted her head slightly toward Lucas. "Although Lucas might have already guessed my true identity, I believe it's time for a formal introduction. I am the Special Unit's 001."

The mere mention of the Special Unit was enough to leave everyone in the room stunned for a while.

They had heard rumors that the recent massive shakeup in the province was due to the Special Unit's intervention. Word was, it involved some kind of enemy espionage.

And now, with the code name "001" being revealed, the room was filled with disbelief. This wasn't an ordinary meeting, and those present were no small-time officials. Naturally, they knew about "001".

But all along, they thought this person didn't actually exist. They didn't believe there would be someone with no record in the archives.

The most critical point was that they had only learned about this codename during major high-level meetings, when being briefed on specific operations.

001 had saved countless lives. But none of them had ever imagined that this person was a young woman! They found it utterly unbelievable!

At this point, Olivian's legs were barely supporting his weight.

When people turned to look at Lucas, they noticed the sparkle in his eyes. It was only then they realized that even Lucas himself might not have known Wynter's true identity.

They couldn't understand why she didn't just reveal her identity on her first day in Hawford. She didn't even say a word when she was framed and taken away!

A collective chill ran down everyone's spines when they realized Wynter must have done so to capture all of them in one sweep.

From the very start, since she had arrived in Hawford, they hadn't taken her seriously.

Maybe certain business-related departments might have paid attention to her, but that was hardly the case in the field of education. Their department only listened to the higher-ups. Anyone else wouldn't have a say in their domain.

A mere businessperson, no matter how much money she made, wouldn't have been worth their time. Of course, they might have spared her a glance if she was donating funds to schools or the education sector.

But today, not only did they realize she was Jackson's disciple, but she also turned out to be the Special Unit's 001!

They still found it hard to come to terms that 001 actually existed. It wasn't just a codename, nor was she dead!

Carlos, who was sitting beside Olivian, gasped, his face drenched in sweat as he slumped back in his chair. He grabbed Lucas' arm in a panic.

"Mr. Keller, I was wrong-I shouldn't have bypassed proper checks to help appoint people to positions with just a word. But I swear that I didn't know this would lead to problems!

"They were all graduates from top universities! It was just a small favor, nothing out of the ordinary. Usually, nothing goes wrong!

"Look at Mr. Standford's wife-she barely knows anything but teaches at a university, and now she's a full professor! My arrangement was just a simple work placement!"

He truly felt wronged and ended up saying more than he should have.

However, some of what he said was indeed quite common. For some people, getting the job they worked hard for might just be a matter of a single recommendation from someone. Only those in the system knew how deep the corruption ran.This is property © of .

In Carlos' eyes, things like getting a professor's title or monopolizing students' academic research weren't a big deal. He was just arranging a job, so what could possibly go wrong? He honestly believed he was being wronged.

Wynter's gaze grew even darker after hearing this. "It seems that you are all beyond saving."
