âBut itâs too dangerous! I donât want you to get hurt holding my hand tightly.
Janiya sobbed,
I gave her hand a reassuring squeeze.
âItâs okay.
Your father put ina lot of effort into the plan.
I have to get it for your familyâs sake.
â âAre you going to Leave me alone here?â
Janiya looked at me pitifully.
âCaleb, Iâm scared.
â
âTurn into a wolf and run to safety,â I suggested and touched her head gently.
Seeing that I wouldnât budge, Janiya had no choice but to do as I said.
âFine, but be careful.
â
The next second, she turned into a wolf.
Her wolf was far from good-looking, with its scruffy white fur and lankly limbs.
It looked weak.
Damien had no interest in her wolf at all.
âSheâs ugly both as a human and a wolf,â he muttered.
I couldnât help but chuckle.
My wolf was really sharp-tongued.
In order to steer clear of the chaotic crowd, I took another path back.
When I arrived at the appointed place, I found Carlos already there, waiting for me.
âIâve got it.
â Carlos came over and handed me the plan.
He was also soaked through and through, which seemed to embarrass him a little.
âGood job,â I praised him sincerely.
âJust donât make me do something like this again,â Carlos said resignedly.
âIâll think about it,â I said with a grin and patted him on the shoulder.
Then I focused all my attention on the plan.
I had to say that the Barton familyâs plan was very well thought out.
The contents were very detailed, and the terms were very clear.
The interests of both sides were clearly divided.
But there was one thing that made me feel very uncomfortable-a special clause at the end that required Janiya to sign a secret agreement with me and Adam on behalf of the Barton family.
This secret agreement was still being drawn up, so I didnât know the details yet.
âGeez.
â Carlos frowned when he read the last clause.
âA secret agreement? That doesnât sound good.
I guess you wonât be able to get rid of Janiya any time soon.

Because being Rileyâs assistant was relatively easy, I had a lot of spare time.
One day, I secretly visited the safe house where Emily was being kept.
Melany Evans, the doctor who looked after Emily, was beautiful, gentle, and kind, and she seemed easy to get along with.
I heard that Melany used to be a very famous doctor in Roz Hospital, and that she had even been praised by Adam.
But she soon resigned for unknown reasons.
Now, she offered her services for free and lived a simple life.
Finally, my curiosity got the better of me and I asked, âMelany, whyâd you leave Roz Hospital?â
