"Contamination?" Aiden's interest was piqued by the topic.
"If Your Excellency is interested, why don't you use your own intelligence network to find out?" However, Abigail chose that moment to abruptly change the subject.
Aiden thought for a moment, then spoke, "Are you being coy? Or do you not wish to speak?"
"I'm somewhat hesitant to disclose it. I already have a rough plan for obtaining the sole authority of 'life', and I'm not sure whether Your Excellency might become a variable in my plan—for better or worse. Personally, I actually find Your Excellency to be trustworthy..." Abigail raised her hand and pointed at Aiden," but reason tells me that one's position doesn't always align with personal preferences. Even though I have some rapport with Your Excellency, that doesn't guarantee our positions will always remain aligned."
"It seems you still don't trust me much," Aiden said with a chuckle, spreading his hands.
