The office fell into silence.
"President Foster, for now, we can only let go. After all, the outcome of being taken away by such a department would be terrible."
Rosewood Campbell had some knowledge about this department.
Without investigating, she already knew that there would be no good repercussions from getting involved with a department that was connected to the nation.
"As long as this controversy is quelled, it does not matter where he is taken."
"President Foster, do we have to deal with those fans?" Rosewood Campbell adjusted her glasses.
Yvette Foster nodded, "Handle those that can be handled."
Fans are too powerful. It’s safer to always keep them in check.

In a certain small park.
On a tree branch.
The girl leaning against the tree raised the small dagger in her hand and gripped it.
A squeeze.
A crisp noise.
The extraordinarily tough material was instantly crushed into fragments in her hand.
There lay a pupa in her palm.
A greenish-purple color.
The pupa burst open, and a little worm quickly wriggled out.
Just as it was about to burrow into her fair wrist, a surge of strength emanated from her palm.
The bug flew and smashed against the tree trunk.
Like a fragile little doll, fluid splashed and shattered into dust.
The liquid sticking to the tree trunk slowly fell, looking rather dirty.
"Meow."
A black cat leapt out from the black fog, assimilating the black smoke drifting near the bug.
It returned to Chloe Stephens’s feet and then vanished with a whoosh.
With a flip of her body and her hands in her pockets, she landed steadily.
Passersby on Park Street couldn’t help but glance at the girl’s actions.
Yawning, she walked out onto the main road with her schoolbag slung over her shoulder.
"Mom, that’s my brother’s friend."
Madison Webb pointed to the girl who was passing by outside while holding Evelyn Weston’s hand.
Evelyn Weston looked out and recognized Chloe Stephens.
"You know her too, Madison?" Evelyn frowned, her tone laced with contempt. "She didn’t even apologize after knocking down my handbag last time. Then she acted all intimate with your brother. She doesn’t look decent at all."
Madison Webb smiled, "Mom, she’s from the Stephens family."
"The Stephens family!" Evelyn was somewhat surprised. "Why would someone from the Stephens family be here?"
"Have you forgotten that there’s a sick girl from the Stephens family who returned to Thompson County? People talked about this incident before.
Evelyn pondered for a moment and then shook her head. "I haven’t heard of this."
In a large family with so many people, those you usually hear of are either exceptional or exceptionally terrible.
Chloe Stephens being mentally ill is the Stephens family’s scandal.
Only the three large families of Sheffield City, who moved about most frequently, were aware. The other minor families had heard about it, but they didn’t take much notice.
"I’ve heard some rumors that she has a brain disease. Even the Taylor family was unable to find a solution. She was born with it, so..."
"So she was kicked out of the family," Evelyn looked contemptuous. "No wonder she’s entangled with your brother."
Even if she is from the Stephens family, she is not worthy of her son if she has a mental illness.
Having been kicked out of the family, she must be trying to latch onto the Webb family, without considering her situation.
Regarding Chloe Stephens, Evelyn felt nothing but revulsion.
Madison Webb saw Evelyn’s reaction, her lips curled into a slight smile.
Although Madison had forgotten what had happened back then, she remembered clearly how she first came to know Chloe Stephens.
She could instantly see how her brother was different towards Chloe Stephens.
"Mom, Chloe is my brother’s friend, so we should be kind to her to avoid angering him."
Evelyn was displeased. "She’s hanging onto your brother, so I have to give her a good face? Madison, you are too soft-hearted. You’ll be taken advantage of when you go out into the society. Such incapable people who are expelled by their families are not rare. They just want to climb up the Webb family’s ladder."
Having lost one’s position in a large family, naturally, one would want to find a more appropriate way out.
She had seen too much of this.
She must keep a close eye on her son’s side.
This wastrel daughter of the Stephens family, even if useless, was strikingly beautiful.
Young boys can easily be deceived by superficial appearances. If she doesn’t watch carefully, he could be hooked by a vixen at any moment.
If he chose a vixen over his mother, that would be it.
Madison Webb cast her eyes down, appearing somewhat shy.
Evelyn patted the back of her hand, saying, "The Hawthorne family’s disciples arrived today. They are arranged to stay at the Webb family house in Thompson County. You stay here for a while and don’t rush back to Sheffield City. It’s just right for you to socialize with them during your recovery period."
Building a good relationship with the disciples of the Hawthorne family who came from the Imperial Capital was definitely an opportunity she wanted to seize!
Madison Webb lowered her head, "I will get along well with them."
Evelyn smiled with satisfaction, "If it’s suitable, you might have a chance to join the Hawthorne family and become one of them."
Upon hearing this, Madison Webb definitely understood Evelyn’s plan.
She neither nodded nor shook her head, only lowered her eyes shyly.

The school was quiet.
However, danger kept approaching from outside.
After the evening self-study period.
Chloe Stephens came close to Thompson County Primary School.
She circled around the back of the campus, then suddenly went up to the rooftop of a building.
Looking downwards from the height.
She spotted a shadow at an alleyway entrance.
She leapt forward from high, flying past the window of a pupil who was doing their homework, startling them.
Landing on one foot, she threw the cat in her hand.
"Meow."
The cat hit the man’s back, stopping his steps.
He turned around. His face was covered by a black robe.
Lower half of the face revealed.
He was someone from The West.
"You are quite a surprise."
His Chinese was choppy.
Chloe Stephens raised her hand and pressed it down lightly.
"Bang."
The man seemed to be pulled by some force and instantly fell to the ground, causing the ground to crack.
The man in the black robe was astounded.
"Who are you?"
Chloe Stephens walked over to him, looking down on him, "Using witchcraft on my family members, what are you Westerners trying to do?"
The man in the black robe was extremely shocked.
"You actually know what this is, then that girl..."
"This is your thing."
She threw a piece of the broken blade in front of him.
The man in the black robe was on the verge of popping his eyes out. He exclaimed, "Impossible, absolutely impossible, how did you destroy it? There is no power that can destroy this blade. How in the world did you do it?"
What kind of person had he run into?
No, it should be what kind of monster.
"So, whose order are you following?"
The Westerner didn’t attempt to keep his employer’s secret. "A Webb from your country of Herta...". Of course, Madison Webb was not his employer, he just happened to be in a good mood and decided to carry out some experiments on the people of Herta according to her wish.
