All Marshall had to do was offer something no one could resist. No one could resist temptation forever.

And the director’s greed knew no limits.

He hadn’t only gambled with his own life.

He’d risked the future of every worker under him.

Mason’s tone dropped low. “Ms. Dawn, what do we do next?”

“What do you mean, what do we do?”

Dawn shot him a sharp look. “He screwed up, so he pays the price. Being the director doesn’t give him a free pass.”

She picked up the folder and straightened her jacket. “Take this evidence to the factory. And tell HR to start putting up new job listings.”

The day outside was clear and golden, the kind of weather that felt perfect for settling unfinished business.

By afternoon, Dawn and Mason were driving toward the factory.

A few kids were tossing a ball around in the yard. When the car rolled in, the sound of tires on gravel caught their attention, and they scattered to the side, whispering to each other.

As soon as Dawn stepped out, one of the boys recognized her. His face lit up as he ran over.

“Hi!”

Dawn smiled as she met the boy’s eyes. Her voice was warm as she said, “Hey there. Can you help me out?”

“Sure thing!”

He grinned, clearly proud to be asked.

“Tell your mom to gather everyone around. I need to talk to all of you.”

“Okay! I got it!”

He slapped his chest confidently and sprinted toward the workshop.

Dawn and Mason shared a look and followed after him at a steady pace.

A few minutes later, the factory director burst out of the building. The instant his eyes landed on them, his face darkened like a storm cloud. “I told you earlier to stay away! The factory’s problems have nothing to do with you! Get out!”

Dawn didn’t move. Mason stepped in front of her, his arm blocking the man’s path.

“What’s got you so nervous?”

“Nervous?”

For a moment, the director’s eyes wavered. Then he sneered. “Why would I be nervous? You’re the ones without a shred of decency! You’re a disgrace to every honest worker in Aglar!”

The noise brought the workers out from the back, wiping their hands on their aprons as they gathered.

But this time, they didn’t look at Dawn with suspicion. They just watched. They didn’t go along with the director.

The boy stood beside his mother, clutching her sleeve, his small face tense.

“Ms. Dawn,” the woman asked quietly, “what’s going on?”

“You shouldn’t be asking her!”

The director snapped before Dawn could speak. His voice shook with anger. “You people really think she helped us out of kindness? She just wanted to use us! That’s what people like her do -rich, manipulative, pretending to care while squeezing every drop of work from us!”

The crowd murmured. They trusted the director.

People exchanged wary glances. The shift in mood spread fast, like a spark catching dry grass.

And now they were wary of Dawn.

Dawn waited. She stood still, her expression calm and unreadable. When she finally spoke, her tone was quiet but cutting. “Alright then. If yout hink I’m a manipulative pig, why don’t you return the money I paid from my own pocket?”

The crowd burst into chaos, voices overlapping in outrage. No one wanted to part with the money they had already pocketed.

“Ms. Dawn, this is wrong!”

“Yeah! Are you trying to make fools out of us?”

Dawn gave a low, mocking laugh. “Funny. I risked my own neck and used my own money to help you, and somehow, I’m still the villain?”

That silenced them.

She made a good point.

A few exchanged uneasy glances. Someone finally turned to the factory director. “Mr. John, what’s really going on?”

Every pair of eyes fixed on him. Sweat rolled down his temples, and panic flickered in his expression. For the first time, he wished he had never come here.

Maybe, just maybe, Dawn didn’t know everything. Maybe there was still a way to crawl back to Marshall.

“She…”

His hand trembled as he jabbed a finger in her direction.

“It’s her! She’s the one who angered Marshall! And now she wants us to take the hit for her! She threw some money around to look generous, but she’s already planning to walk away from this mess!”

Dawn folded her arms, watching him with quiet amusement. Her calm only made his desperation look worse.

The shouting started again, louder this time.

Voices called her a liar. A few spat accusations, twisting her help into something ugly. Some even started throwing around talk about corporate greed and politics.

Dawn began to clap. The sharp rhythm sliced through the noise like the crack of glass under

pressure.

She said coolly, “Well, Mr. John, you really have a gift for theater. Everyone thought you were this upright, hardworking man who lived for this factory. But clearly, you’ve got quite the hidden talent.”

Her lips curved into a smile, but her gaze was ice.

John’s face drained of color. His voice shook as he shouted, “Stop twisting things! No one here will believe your lies! Get out! All of you, get out!”

“I beg to differ.” Dawn’s tone sharpened. “Maybe you should explain this.”

She raised her hand, and a gust of wind caught the papers she held. The sheets scattered through the air like a white storm.

The sky overhead darkened, heavy clouds swallowing the light.

Mason stepped forward, catching her cue. He lifted the documents high, his voice steady and clear. “Your director isn’t who you think he is. When Stonewarden Group bought this factory, he secretly sold every one of you to Marshall.”
