Theo leaned in, grinning like a puppy eager for praise. “Boss, don’t worry. The Midnight Pack’s little gear- making business will be ruined within three days. Guaranteed!”
He rubbed his hands together, then asked carefully, “So…
are you still mad?”
I glanced at him, expressionless, and gave a small nod. Honestly, watching his confident face did ease my anger a bit.
“Ha!” He laughed, eyes lighting up. “Then how about lunch? My treat. There’s a new restaurant nearby, and it’s supposed to be good.”
“Not today. I still have work to finish.” I pointed at the encrypted folder on my desk. “You go ahead.”
“Aw, come on, Boss.” He tugged on my sleeve like a kid. “How are you supposed to work on an empty stomach? You promised to let me treat you. Take advantage of me while you can.”
I sighed, giving his head a light smack. “Fine. I’ll make sure to eat well, then.”
After packing up my files, I followed Theo out of the classroom.
His bubblegum-pink Lamborghini was parked right in front of the school gate, shiny and impossible to miss. Heads turned as we walked by. I slid into the passenger seat, shaking my head. “You really can’t pick a more low-key car, can you?”
Two days later, I organized the translated documents into a binder and went to Baxter’s old brick mansion. I knocked and said, “Baxter, here’s what you asked for.”
He opened it, flipped through a few pages, and raised his brows. “Only two days? Amanda, you really are a language prodigy.”
“I rushed it because I didn’t want anything to go wrong,” I explained. Then I hesitated before admitting, “I need to apologize. Someone else saw the papers—just a student, probably didn’t understand a word—but still, I can’t be completely sure. You can deduct half of my payment as an apology.”
Baxter chuckled and set the folder down. “You’re being too formal. I trust you, Amanda. If you say the file’s secure, then it’s secure. We’ve known each other for years-don’t talk to me like I’m a client.”
Before I could argue, he picked up his phone. Within minutes, my phone buzzed with a transfer notification. One million crystal stones.
“I’ll take full responsibility if there’s ever a leak,” I said seriously.
He smiled. “That’s all I needed to hear.” As he walked me to the door, he added, “By the way, I heard the Midnight Pack went under. Rumor says it has something to do with one of your classmates. Be careful.”

I nodded, my face calm. The Yeomans got what they deserved.

After leaving his place, I stopped by the bank and transferred part of the money to a charity fund. I was about to head home when I spotted a familiar car parked across the street.
Inside, Samson was on the phone, his sharp profile catching the light.
I pretended not to see him and turned away, but his voice stopped me. “Amanda!”
I froze, sighed inwardly, and forced a smile as I turned around. “Wow, what a coincidence. What are you doing here?”
He said into the phone, “Then don’t bother coming over.”
He ended his call and jerked his chin toward me. “Come here.”
That commanding tone made my stomach tighten. Still, out of courtesy, I walked over. “Can I help you with something?”
“Get in.” His words were flat, giving me no room to argue.
I blinked. “You’re … giving me a ride? That’s convenient. Saves me a cab fare.”
I climbed in, buckled up, expecting a quiet drive home-until he handed me a stack of papers. “These are details for my meeting with the Moonshield Pack’s Alpha. Read them.”
I stared at the papers, completely confused. “Why are you giving this to me?”
Samson didn’t answer right away. He just tapped the steering wheel lightly. “You’ll understand after you read.”
Something in his tone made my chest tighten with unease.
