Chapter 776
Aria caught on, a faint smile playing at her lips. She said, “You can get into the State Security Bureau, right?”
Owen slipped his arms around her from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder and chuckling softly. He said, “You are getting too clever–it’s impossible
to surprise you anymore.”
Aria reached back and gently cupped his cheek. She said, “Go pack up.”
“As you wish,” Owen replied, pressing a soft kiss to her hair.
Four hours later, they arrived at the gates of the State Security Bureau.
When Tessa saw them get out of the car, she reached out to Owen first and said, “Welcome, Owen.”
After greeting Owen, Tessa turned to Aria, her eyes lighting up with surprise. She said, “I didn’t expect you to show up for this competition.”
Aria replied, “Cathy has some ideas, and I am impressed.”
Tessa led them inside, explaining to Aria, “Here’s how the accommodations are set up. You’ll be staying in the regular dorm, and he’ll be in the VIP area. If
you two stay in the same room, people will start talking.
“Honestly, the regular dorms aren’t much different from the VIP area. State Security Bureau always takes good care of the guests.”
Owen said, “Then I’ll just stay in the regular dorm.”
Tessa chuckled and said, “Alright then.”
Arja looked at Owen thoughtfully and asked, “Tessa’s attitude toward you is pretty special. Did you do something?”
Before Owen could answer, Tessa laughed and said, “He donated 30 million dollars to the State Security Bureau’s research fund. He can stay as long as
he wants.”
Tessa thought, ‘It has only been two weeks apart, and yet Owen just couldn’t stand being away from Aria. He sticks to her like glue.
‘Usually, it’s the wife who follows the husband, but with these two, Owen is the one happily trailing after his wife.’
As the three of them walked into the training base, all eyes were instantly on them. Soon, the State Security Bureau’s internal group chat was blowing up.
One texted: [Photos, please.]
Another texted: [Aria showed up. And she brought a guy with her.]
Someone texted: [Is that the newbie? He’s hot, but is he any good?]
One replied: [I’ve seen that newbie before, and it’s not this guy.]
One texted: [Did he just pull some strings to get in? Seriously, nowadays even random nobodies can get into the State Security Bureau?]
Just then, Cathy replied: [That’s my brother Owen/He donated 30 million dollars to the State Security Bureau–he’s a VIP guest for the competition. Got a problem with that?]
The chat went dead silent for a second, then totally blew up.
One texted: [30 million dollars?]
Another texted: [Is this what being rich is like?]

Someone texted: [Bring it on, you damn capitalists.]
Weyne suddenly tagged Cathy. He texted: [So, Aria only got in because of your brother’s connections?)
Cathy instantly fired back with a middle finger emoji. She replied: [If 30 million dollars was all it took to get into the State Security Bureau, how come every rich guy in the country isn’t here already?
[Brains are a nice thing to have–too bad you missed out.]
