The Paterson family had their hands in all sorts of businesses, but when it came to jewelry, Elliot’s brand was top of the game worldwide.

As soon as Elliot and Leonard got the call, they dropped everything, had their team throw together a contract on the fly, and met up with the cops in less than two hours.

Ever since the two of them showed up with their crew, Elliot’s eyes never left Sierra.

Anderson, meeting Elliot for the first time, had his eyes widen a bit. He thought, ‘Man, this guy is so obvious. He doesn’t even bother to hide it.

‘And as for Ms. Sterling, Elliot looks like he wants to be her personal accessory. It is obvious to everyone what is on his mind, but Ms. Sterling acts like she doesn’t notice a thing. Maybe she’s just not into Elliot at all.

Anderson was an outsider, so he kept it strictly professional and explained the current problem to Elliot and Leonard.

“Mr. Paterson, we really appreciate your help with this case. Just help us buy some time, and don’t worry about whether Cesar gets suspicious. We just need to quietly find the evidence, Anderson said.

Elliot looked serious. “Officer, don’t worry. Sierra’s problems are my problems, and I know how this works better than Leonard. I’ll get it done, no problem!”

Anderson thought, ‘How does a guy who dresses as a total boss talk in a way that’s so funny?’

Anderson nodded blankly, still a bit dazed.

Right on cue, Sierra chimed in, “Leonard, Elliot, once you get inside, do your best to stall. Cesar definitely knows about my ties to the Paterson family, so he’ll be on guard.

“But he’s all about the cash, so he’ll try to feel you out to see your real intentions. Just stick to your usual business routine.”

Sierra wasn’t just relying on one plan. She was covering all her bases.

For a big shot like Cesar, the lure of money was simply irresistible. Even if he knew it was a trap, as long as there was a hint of greed in his heart, he’d end up dropping his guard.

Of course, if Cesar were smart, he’d be digging for answers, both out in the open and behind closed doors. But with all his focus locked on Elliot and Leonard, he wouldn’t have the bandwidth to watch anything else.

That way, sneaking into the mine would be way

Elliot’s sharp mind caught on right away.

easier for them,

He said, “So, Leonard and I are just the smokescreen.”

Sierra nodded, giving Elliot a look that said, “You got it.”

Elliot clutched his chest, feeling like his heart was about to jump right out of his chest.

Leonard just couldn’t bear to watch him act like that.

Everyone gathered around to go over the plan. As the evening rolled in, Elliot and Leonard led their team out first. Anderson had the squad cars pull over by the highway, lying in wait, and called in more officers to stand by for the bust.

Once everything was in place, Elliot sent over a discreet update,

Sierra and her crew were about to sneak into the mine from another spot, but Elliot’s message came with a video that showed Cesar was feeding a whole pack of dogs, and they were all huge, vicious types.

If those beasts started barking, it’d instantly get the patrol’s attention, and the whole operation would go up in smoke.

After watching the video, Sierra’s eyes shifted over to Richie and Penny.

She lightly patted their heads. “You two are up next!”

Richie and Penny cocked their heads and had no clue what Sier meant.

Sierra leaned close to their ears. Their ears twitched, listening carefully. Finally, Richie said, “Don’t worry, Sierra. Penny and I will get those dogs in line, make them behave just like you want”

Top dog, huh? That’s nothing. Back in the day, we used to run with full-grown wolves. Leading a pack of dogs? Easy job,’ Richie thought.

It was right up their alley. No problem at all.

With dusk settling in, Sierra and her crew slipped up to the mines outer wall. The machines inside were still roaring away, no sign of stopping.

They were all decked out in miners’ gear, covered in dust.

Anderson felt the difference hit him hard. Obviously, he was the one getting totally overshadowed here.

The guys from the wildlife rescue team, none of them under 6’1 made those miners’ outfits look less like work clothes and more like next season’s hottest drop.

And when it came to Sophie and Sierra, they were on a whole other level. Sophie stood at 5’10”, all wiry strength, and even her exposed wrists looked powerful. In those miners’ uniforms, she looked more like she was suited for combat than for mining.

Sierra was another story. She was slim, not as ripped as Sophie, but even with a layer of dust on her face, she looked like a pearl dusted with dirt, her glow still shining through no matter what.

As for Anderson, he was just 5’11”, barely 0.7 inches taller than Sophie, but when it came to looks and style, he honestly looked like he was begging for change.

Standing in the middle of the wildlife rescue team, he felt like a scruffy teddy dog lost among a pack of intimidating Dobermans.

Yeah, comparison really did sting.

No one realized Anderson was feeling like a sad little puppy. The mine’s wall was seriously tall, and the top was lined with jagged glass shards. One wrong move and they’d slice their hands open. So, everyone had to be extra careful climbing up.

Richie and Penny became the top dogs in no time, ruling over the whole pack like it was nothing.

When they dropped down, sure enough, a dozen vicious dogs were prowling the ground. But when they saw Richie and Penny scale the wall and stroll in, not a single one dared to bark.

Still, those tails spinning like helicopter blades totally gave away how excited they were.

Sierra was the last to drop down, and Sophie and Ethan caught her as she landed. Instantly, every dog in the mine swarmed over. The ones who couldn’t get close just rolled over in the back showing off their bellies for attention.

Sierra shushed them with a quick gesture, and sure enough, the big dogs instantly toned it down.
