Theodore said slowly, "Protect yourself! It's time to get rid of him for the benefit of the big picture. During this time, you must do everything in your power to safeguard yourself. As long as you remain in your position, there's still a chance to be pulled out. But if you fall, your family will be doomed."

He tried to ask for help from the higher-ups, but no one dared to step forward as a guarantor after hearing that Shawn had offended an influential figure.

…

Two months of summer vacation passed in the blink of an eye, slipping away through one's fingertips without notice.
