55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iM0unne3i
Mariana shook her head anxiously. Her paper fan closed, tapping on the table in front of her. The glass of her favorite cocktail remained untouched.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkV406TaP2
Broto: "Madam, we should lay low for a while."
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdnmNAWJxW
Mariana: "I'm no coward, Broto."
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbH4unacis
Broto took a clove cigarette with a "234" label.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61yZw508kh

55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ769rUrlmVS

55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPMMNamCpp
Broto fell silent for a moment. He struck a match, lit his cigarette, and inhaled deeply.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJV8StnVTe
Broto: "We really should lay low for now, Madam..."
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8HgEmPuQwD

55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93m1KNgBD9
Mariana: "We will fight back, Broto."
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJbZPORfe2

55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhaLt05qv6
Broto: "Yes, Madam. We will strike back."
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhUeAAL123

55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSKUek5mjV
Broto: "All ready, Madam. The helicopter is on the roof of the tallest building."
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoYRIvEq03

Broto: "That's right, Madam."
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCrvZedisO

Broto: "What do you mean, Madam?"
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvHTuv6Pfh
Mariana: "We'll target them in return—freeze their assets, freeze their accounts."
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyrY5c0wrL
Broto exhaled smoke and tapped his cigarette on the ashtray several times.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡay2wGsuKm4
Mariana: "Can you do it, Broto?"
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uYK54ZCAd
Broto: "Of course, Madam! We have a cyber team, don't we?"
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EevbcXGrJ
Mariana: "Do you know which top police and KPK officials are leading the operation against us?"
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OgYEQNKbf
Broto: "Of course, Madam. We'll find out..."
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8di8P9Elw
Mariana: "Investigate whether they've been involved in corruption or bribery."
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSonl1Ybjrd
Broto wiped cold sweat from his forehead, his face uneasy about Mariana's plan. His voice trembled.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6sAwnhrKD
Broto: "Yes, Madam."
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJf8T5FkjRD

55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2G5zLAHqic
Broto: "Yes, Madam."
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17gmzXvLg2
Mariana played with her paper fan, then sipped her cold cocktail.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHLBoWHunA
Mariana: "Can you do it without linking it back to us?"
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkLjztoZFr
Broto took a deep breath.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtnu2memgV
Broto: "Of course, Madam. Isn't that how Arizal and Diono came under KPK investigation?"
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbt7X6WyOGT
Mariana: "Exactly."
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcVxEAiYye
Broto: "Our cyber team provided information on Arizal and Diono's fake accounts—without exposing us."
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLnna4ZRfr

55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1RhkwhfsH
Mariana looked exhausted. Her beautiful face showed anxiety. The paper fan opened wide.

55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoPYLzZk3t
Broto: "True, Madam. Government officials are starting to suspect our business."
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5BqILd841
Mariana didn't react. The fan moved slowly in her hand, her face calm.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMtiRpZacR
Broto: "They've frozen part of our assets. The raids keep coming."
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpSL77nyXm
Mariana stood up.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLaYq8mqqS
Broto: "And most recently, they blocked our shipment of female workers to Thailand and arrested Captain Kuntadi!"
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlA7iNtgm8
Mariana: "According to our informant, did that involve Nagini and Officer Burhan?"
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc293RdoCvD
Broto nodded.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsmSVTUplz
Broto: "Yes, Madam. That was their doing."
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hXgNOtr9w
Mariana frowned in annoyance.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGtNIL97nO
Mariana: "Nagini, the man in the red jacket—the one we met in the Ramayana Mall basement?"
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6xFTjJX0p
Broto: "Yes, Madam."
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9IsNwBUEm
Mariana: "Nagini was strong enough to block my fan strike on the twins, Rani and Rina."
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tliEJ9PZS
Broto nodded again, inhaling deeply.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WltYufFUN

55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XkfXxPH5t

55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6je6QhVsS
Mariana opened her private room with a fingerprint scan. Once inside, the door closed and locked automatically.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGVQ9D90wl
She walked to a large vanity mirror and sat, staring at her reflection.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMhFL0igfF
Mariana looked at her face—beautiful, calm, with a faint smile hinting at unshakable resolve.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfljhtGQWS
Slowly, she removed her long-sleeved blouse, revealing muscular arms like a female bodybuilder.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhE9T8qMvH
The pronounced muscles contrasted sharply with her soft, golden-brown skin and delicate facial features.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLThXSaC8r
Mariana took a tissue and wiped off her lipstick, revealing her natural lips.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvEz1nSPfq
She stared at herself in the mirror again, silent and still.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulriumcWey
Then she rose from her seat. Her hands trembled faintly, a reddish glow surrounding them…
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzT9zKLYuwM
The room grew hot.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXVCoMytZn
The paper fan in Mariana's hand hardened into steel.
