"Boss, we are facing an insignificant problem..." Max said over his earpiece, looking down on the ground.
"Translator, activate for everyone.", the headmaster, who was connected to everyone's earphones and was watching what was happening from the tiny cameras everyone was wearing, spoke.
"I have activated everyone's translator. It will translate what the general saying and whatever you say will be translated in Chinese to make the general understand.".
"Copy that, sir," everyone said over their earpiece.
Alex and Gelissa walk away, leaving Max to handle the general since he was the leader of this mission.
"Good day, second general. My team and I are here for the soldiers that will be attending the press conference on the new weapon the country we serve will be showcasing."
The general looks Max up and down then asks, "What's your code?". "0".
"You may get on your way!" the general said, then walked past Max.
On every mission he's ever been on, he was never encountered by a general before he always knew to keep it on the low, but this time it caught him by surprise.
"Everything is okay now. Everyone can get back to their mission. Translator deactivated.", the headmaster spoke.

Since Rina was injured by the fight with Johnathan, Liam had not attended class but stayed with her.
While Liam was staying with her, Juliet came back to her office with a very unpleasant face.
"Is everything okay?" Liam questioned.
"No, everything is not okay...".
"I'm guessing the meeting with Johnathan didn't go well?".
"Right, it didn't."
"What happened?" Liam asks as he takes a seat before her table.
"We can't expel Johnathan..."
"Wait, what!".
"He has been bullying and making Rina's life a living hell. How can he not be expelled!" Liam began to shout as his anger rose, knowing they refused to expel Johnathan.
"Johnathan is the nephew of the biggest supporter of this school. Means that if we expel Johnathan we also push away the supporter."
"I don't like it but I have to accept it if I want to continue working here."
"Well, I won't accept it! My mother has invested so much that she can afford to invest in this school and become the biggest supporter of this school!" Liam burst out in anger but the truth was that his money was the money that has been investing in different companies, not his mother's. His mother's name was there to hide that it was he behind all of it.
Mothers have a way of always being there for their children when they need their parents/parent help the most.
Hating his father and not having his father around was the main reason he had to be smart, be rich and to be bad.
His father is one of the dirtiest secretive badass rich people. After his father left his mother, his father became one of the dirtiest rich people alive and had his own gang of criminals.
His father knew how to hide information from others and knew to keep his business private.
That's why it's taking a much longer time for Liam to find his father's location and take him down by himself.
That was the only goal Liam had in mind before he met Max.
"No... You don't do that, Liam." Juliet said, which had Liam puzzled why he shouldn't.
"Why?".
"Because... Your history teacher is more than my husband and a teacher. He is..."
"What is he?" Liam asked.
"He is ... the CEO of Jewelry Maze," Juliet said with her eyes closed and her hands clasp together.
"Wait a minute, Francis? Wait, before I was born I heard that my dad did some business with the CEO of Jewelry Maze. Wait, could this CEO be him?" Liam thought to himself.
"Excuse me, Juliet. Was Mr Francis the CEO of Jewelry Maze in 2018?".
"Yes, he was. Why ask though?" Juliet question.
"Nothing really, just curious..." Liam laughed.
"I need to ask her husband about this. Maybe I could get more information on my father," Liam thought to himself.
"Back to what I was saying. I was saying maybe I could ask my husband to become the biggest supporter of our school...".
"Wait, before we get to the support part... Why does the CEO of one of the biggest jewelry companies want to be working as a highschool history teacher?".
"Well... He thought it would be nice to have another job where he could just relax," Juliet lied, cause she couldn't just say that her husband is stalking her.
"Mhm, I'm curious," Liam said while he rubs his chin.
"Anyway... I will ask him to be the supporter," Juliet said as she tries to get Liam's mind away from thinking too much about her husband that she never loved.
"No... don't do that. He's the CEO of one of the biggest jewelry companies and if he's not around his work and took the time out to teach history means he's trying to relax from his actual job. And if you go and ask, he might say no because he is trying to get a break from his job. I will ask my mother."
"It's weird that a student knows so much, and knows to think like a businessman... don't you think?" Juliet asks Liam as she herself was beginning to get curious about Liam.
"O crap! I should be undercover, not be the genius who can't be undercover and act like a student!" Liam begins to curse himself.
"Haha, it's weird isn't it?" Liam started to fake laugh and Juliet laughed along.
Juliet was curious because that was how her father normally speaks to her about situations that don't look right and he needed to figure out what could be the cause.
After Juliet's marriage, she hadn't been in contact with him, but he would check in once a month on her to see if she was okay.
Even though he was evil for selling his daughter he still kept a heart to see if she was okay but the truth was that she was living in a hell and her father was willing to ignore that he made his own daughter live in hell like that.
But Juliet's mother was different. She checked in on her daughter twice a week by either hiding to meet her somewhere or calling her secretly because her dad never allowed her mother to speak to her and also told her husband that she wasn't allowed to speak to her mother either and he was willing to agree.
