Charmaine entered the testing facility and headed straight to the senior executive’s office.
Micah Wheeler, seeing her serious expression, quickly stood up and closed the door.

“Master, you’re finally here! The thing you asked me to est … Oh my god, it nearly scared me to death!” Micah exclaimed, looking pale as he clutched the test results.
He patted his chest dramatically, his usual composure nowhere to be seen.
Charmaine raised an eyebrow. “Is the composition what I suspected?”
Micah shook his head vigorously. “No! The anesthetic in it is banned in the country because of its severe side effects. It can … ‘
”
Charmaine took the report from him, her expression hardening. “Excessive use can lead to addiction,” she finished.
Micah nodded repeatedly. “Exactly! Luckily, I tested it privately in my office. No one else knows about it. If this leaks out, Master, you’ll be in serious trouble!”
“Whether I’m in trouble is one thing, but some people definitely will be.”
Without hesitation, she fed the report into the shredder, watching it become a pile of waste.
Micah, standing uncomfortably close, stared at her in surprise. His face was so near that Charmaine couldn’t help but quip, “You’re not a man by gender, and your preference isn’t female, huh?”
Micah snorted dramatically. “I just have a good eye for beauty! Master, you’re genuinely stunning.”
Charmaine took it in stride, replying lightly, “You’re not bad–looking yourself.”
She had only met Micah twice, but his naturally delicate and refined features, combined with his meticulous self–care, were unmatched by most women.
When he heard her remark, Micah looked far from pleased. Covering his face, he shot Charmaine a wounded look. “Master, you have no idea! I used to look even better! But two years ago, when my master heard that Master Field was taking on disciples, he literally jumped out of his sickbed. He dragged me, his most prized student, back for grueling training and a complete makeover, insisting that I couldn’t lose to Master Field’s apprentices…”
Charmaine chuckled. “So, the transformation hasn’t exactly paid off?”
Micah huffed indignantly. “That’s not it! He just thinks lack the masculinity you have. When it comes to medical skills, though, even my master wouldn’t dare compare himself to Master Field.”
Charmaine did not say anything back.
This senior of hers seemed to have quite a knack for self–awareness.
She took out a letter from her bag. “I have a letter for my master. At the end of the month, they are sending someone to deliver supplies to him. Could you pass it along for me?”

When Charmaine left the testing center, she noticed two fresh tire skid marks on the ground near the entrance. They definitely were not there when she went in.
Glancing around cautiously, she made sure nothing seemed unusual before continuing on her way.
The bidding conference for the South City development project was held at the official office.
Each company was allowed three representatives, with 20 seats reserved for public observers. The entire conference was live–streamed.
In the public seating area, Charmaine, who rarely wore makeup, occupied the last seat today.
Her naturally beautiful face was subtly enhanced, giving her an elegant charm that drew more than a few lingering gazes.
Her eyes casually scanned the venue until they landed on Jonah and Bennett sitting far apart, their expressions anything but friendly.
She raised an eyebrow in surprise.
