Chapter 22: The Syndicate's Reach
Ethan's eyes locked onto the screen in front of him, his mind racing with the implications. The Syndicate was a powerful and secretive organization, and he knew that taking them down wouldn't be easy.
Sarah walked in, a look of concern on her face. "Ethan, I've been digging deeper into The Syndicate's operations, and I think I've found something disturbing."
Ethan's head snapped up. "What is it?"
Sarah hesitated before speaking. "It seems that The Syndicate has infiltrated every level of society. They have agents in the government, in law enforcement, and even in the corporate world."
Ethan's eyes widened. "That's terrifying. We can't trust anyone."
Sarah nodded. "I know. It's like they're everywhere, watching and waiting."
Ethan's jaw clenched. "We need to be careful. We can't let them catch us off guard."
But as he spoke, Ethan couldn't shake off the feeling that they were already in The Syndicate's crosshairs.
