There are many more loose ends beside Rebecca Abarbanel. Anyone who has co into contact with the mission report will be assessed and determined for security risk.
Not all of them requires imdiate termination, but a large number of people do.
Even the person that Rebecca had talked to over the phone is considered for termination.
Loose ends must always be taken care of, regardless.
Leaving just one to roam around will cause unwarranted future incidents, directly or indirectly.
This is cruel, but necessary.

More than a couple dozen of people are terminated over the course of next few weeks, using different kind of thods.
Hydra does spice things up to make it more interesting, but most are killed through car accidents. It is the easiest and cheapest.
It can also be used to kill a lot of people together.
As for the people who have worked at the television station with Emily and Rebecca and ca in direct contact with the mission report, they are invited to an all-expense paid business trip to xico.
This is to prevent multiple suspicious deaths.
Their bus never made it to its destination.
Their charred bodies are identified a week later by families and friends.
This is one of the biggest mass executions since the inception of Hydra four decades earlier, aside from being involved in actual wars of course.
It does make wonder who is really at fault in the end.
If I must think about it, I believe the fault lies with Jas.
His mission report has implicated so many people.
Jas should have been prepared for the eventuality of his death. Using his example, Shield personnel is no longer allowed to bring any kind of report or classified information ho.
This would have never been a problem in Hydra. All Hydra personnel basically lives on base with their families. Even their kids are Hydra agents, and they would be trained as such.
Once all the loose ends are tied, I can return my attention back to Terra Entertainnts. I have many ideas I need to check and confirm. A quick jump into the future will give all I need to know.
However, I didn't expect so loose ends to be interminable.
Interminable – is that the right word?
I an those loose ends cannot be terminated due to special status or privilege. At least not without an expressed permission from and only .
Who you might asked?
Well –
"Please, Miss Oxford would like a mont of your ti."
The butler gestures into a limousine. This is the first ti I am on the receiving end of the generous invitation.
It is rather interesting.
"Take care of the baby stroller while I have a chat with your mistress. It was a gift to from a friend, so it is priceless."
I tell the man before embracing Antigone.
Jimmy has brought Antigone that stroller, so what I had just said is true.
My daughter has no idea what is going on but decides to go along with it without a fuzz. She did have a wonderful breakfast just a few minutes ago.
When I enter the limousine with my baby daughter in my arms, I am greeted with a splitting image of Marilyn Monroe. I swear I had thought she was her mother for a second.
"You must be Marian Monroe Oxford. What can I do for you?"
I address the woman, who is sitting opposite of in the rather spacious limousine. She has this aura of superiority about her. She was raised to be the heiress of a multi-billion dollars empire after all.
If it wasn't for the brilliant sche of her oldest brother, Harry Oxford, she would be the current CEO of Chrono Holdings.
Marian scans up and down, trying to determine my worth.
From the way I usually conducted myself and to the way how I dressed, I am probably worth as much as a penny on the street in her eyes – basically nothing.
"What is your relationship to my father?"
Marian gets to the point imdiately. She didn't understand why her father would associate himself with soone like .
More than that, her father also funded the massive company called Terra Entertainnt and gave complete ownership.
This information is not common knowledge, but Marian is very resourceful. She must be in order to wrestle controls from her brothers and sisters.
Being children to an Oxford empire is not easy.
"Henry? I think you should ask your father that. You will be pleasantly surprised to learn the truth."
I answer while rocking Antigone. The baby giggles joyfully.
It is probably ti to introduce Henry's children to the hidden world.
I think Henry already told his first-born son, Harry oxford since the man is currently the CEO of Chrono Holdings.
If Harry didn't know about or the massive organizations backing Chrono Holdings, it would be very disastrous for him to run the corporation in place of his father.
"Henry? You call my father Henry?"
Marian questions and pays attention to Antigone. She narrows her eyes at my daughter. My daughter stares back unflinchingly.
"Yes. He is soone close to . You could say that I know him all of my life."
I answer and cover Antigone's eyes to play peekaboo.
I also don't want my daughter staring at one of the most vicious businesswon to ever existed. She might learn sothing that I don't want her to learn.
"I see. Would you like sothing to drink?"
Marian offers.
The compartnt housed inside the side door opens, revealing all manners of beverage.
I would have picked one if I didn't know she is trying to get my saliva to analysis. Marian really believes that the allegations about being a love child of her father.
"Sorry, but I don't think I will, Miss Oxford. If you want to know who I am, you should go and ask your father directly. If that is all, I will take my leave. I have a multi-million dollars company to run. It might not be much right now, but I think it will be as great if not greater than Oxford Enterprise in the future."
Marian laughs.
"A bastard child like you? I suppose anyone can dream, even that black trash from the street."
I narrow my eyes at her.
Marian is referring to Halle Berry. Since she is blood and flesh of one of my closest confident, I suppose I will give her so leniency. If it was anyone else, they would have break them in half for even thinking about insulting and my associates.
I think I understand why racisms is still strong in Arica. It is probably related to Henry. His business empire and connection inevitably produce the sa-like mindedness.
It didn't help that all the major corporations in Arica is owned and controlled by the white majority.
"Thank you for your ti, Miss Oxford. I hope the next ti is more pleasant."
I answer and left the limousine with my daughter.
I swear that the more I talk to the woman, the more I want to put her on a skewer. She is like Ambrosia, magnified by about a hundred tis.
The butler returns the stroller, so I could tuck my daughter back in. I check for the musical shaker toy in the stroller before shaking it in front of Antigone.
Antigone coos and takes the shaker into her tiny hands. She plays with the toy while I continue towards my company.
Marian watches from the limousine until I am no longer in view. She left after that since she does have a company to run. She will talk to her father about my true nature when she has ti.
"So, Henry, my friend. I have a little chat with your eldest daughter, Marian. She is such a nice person. She is so nice that I want to apply a restraining order against her effective imdiately. Can you please do that for and my daughter?"
I tell Henry once I am in my office. He apologizes sincerely for that. He didn't expect his eldest daughter to do sothing of the sort.
"I know you are a busy man, but please keep your family in check. I do not want you to bury so of your children because you are too busy to be there and educate them properly. Ah, also, what is this I hear about you fathering so bastards?"
I question as his profile appears in front of my eyes. His family tree is expanded, showing the insane number of branches. He has been a very, very naughty boy.
"There are tis that I am unable to stop myself, Mr. Maxwell. You will understand when you are my age."
Henry explains. He feels so old.
Although Henry is about 62 this year, he feels more like 90 years old due to the amount of ti he has spent building a business empire. He has more money than he could spend in a hundred of lifeti or so, but he refuses to retire.
I feel sowhat sorry for the man, who give his entire life for my cause. I call Infinite Health afterwards and tell them to speed up their schedule.
The rest of the day and week, I make sure all my projects in in order.
When Monday cos around, I plan to attend so the auditions, especially the audition for Sleepless in Seattle. The main actor and actress have not been determined yet unlike the other two movies.
Monday cos quickly when you are a very busy person. There are only so many hours in a day.
I drop by the restaurant with my daughter to have breakfast before heading to my company like usual.
It has beco pretty much my daily routine.
Antigone plays her shaker toy as I push the stroller across the street, singing a lovely song for her.
My mind blank out for a couple of seconds as sharp pains pierces through my entire body. My vision swims as I look to my side and try to move my arm and leg.
My legs are not following my command. They are completely broken.
[Operator is in Critical Condition. Please remain completely still for Repair]
People rush towards , shouting and screaming.
I roll to my side, trying to ignore the intense pain all over my body. The nanites try to stop the massive internal bleeding to the best of their ability.
Bloods clogs up in my throat, forcing to cough them out.
[Operator is in Critical Condition. Please remain completely still for Repair]
"Oh my God! He got hit by a car. Soone calls 911!"
"What about the baby. Is the baby okay!?"
"How could the driver speeds away like that!"
I groan and focus my vision.
The stroller is on its side.
A shaker toy lays silently away from an unmoving tiny hand.
Everyone who stands around the trolley gasps in horror.
[Operator is in Critical Condition. Please remain completely still for Repair]
Many people hug each other for comfort as I struggle towards the stroller.
I need to know.
[Operator is in Critical Condition. Please remain completely still for Repair]
I push the crushed stroller away with all my strength to see my daughter or what is left of her.
The blood image burns into my mory.
[Operator is in Critical Condition. Please remain completely still for Repair]
"Antigone!!!!!!!!!!!!"
I hamr the ground as unquenchable fury explodes within .
My power surge forth, erupt outwards like a tidal wave.
And the world cos to a complete standstill.
The entire universe has frozen.
Ti has stop.
