Rick hung up the phone and sighed deeply. He turned towards Adrian, who was waiting with a knowing look on his face.
"So?"
"You were right," Rick replied, frustrated with the situation. "Someone already informed Maria about our plan. She fled before we could capture her, or she wasn't there to begin with, as you said."
"I figured as much," Adrian smirked, his suspicions confirmed. "I knew even someone like Maria wouldn't have gone as far as executing an attack on the hospital without having someone supporting her from within the DRA."
"You're right..." Rick replied, rubbing his temple. "I can't believe this. I always thought they were a bunch of rich bastards, but to stop to this level? Unforgivable."
Adrian didn't reply as his thoughts went to yesterday while interrogating Vex.
