She turned and walked away.

They didn’t dig up anything on me after twenty–four hours, so she’s letting me go,‘ Dylan thought, watching Nova walk away, lost in his own thoughts.
Dylan stood up and hurried after her. “Ms. Mitchell, wait!” he called out.
Nova stopped and turned to face him, her gaze icy and silent, waiting for him to speak.
Dylan asked anxiously, “Did you find out who did it?”
Nova let out a cold laugh. “So, you’re happy we didn’t catch you, huh? Your whole family’s really careful, but don’t get too comfortable. I’ll get the proof one day.
‘Eliana, Beatrice, and you are three pieces of trash. Sooner or later, I’ll see all of you locked up.”

Dylan paused, baffled. What’s that supposed to mean?‘ he wondered. ‘Someone went all out just to save me
Dylan stared out at the sunshine streaming in, but his own eyes were void of any light.
Dylan frowned, watching Nova’s retreating figure. Suddenly realizing something, he rushed after her, only to spot her at the corner, speaking quietly into her phone.
Nova’s voice was respectful. Ms. Hale, we’ve checked everything here, and there’s nothing tying Dylan to this
“The contact used a burner phone, the deal was all cash, and there’s no surveillance on the route Dylan’s way too cautions to leave any evidence behind.

“Don’t worry, Ms. Hale. Next time, I’ll be on it right away. I won’t let Dylan walk free again.”

Serena said, “Nova, maybe it wasn’t him at all. Someone else could be using him as a cover to go after me, like Eliana, Jasper, or Beatrice. Any of them could be behind this.”
Nova narrowed her eyes, suddenly remembering something. She’d been so furious earlier that she’d lost all sense of reason.
