For now, Iâd take her with me to Roz Town.
Perhaps there was a way for someone to take her back home later.
Debraâs POV: When I pulled into Roz Town, I found that it there was indeed something wrong with it.
The town has a strategic location, and the surrounding packs needed to pass through the town to go to other places.
Logically, this was convenient to the townâs development.
However, the town was barely-developed and Looked much worse than Xeric Packâs headquarters.
Traffic here was very inconvenient; houses were old and shabby; municipal engineering and public facilities were inadequate.
In short, this place was rather poor.
In the evening, the town was dimly Lit by flickering street Lamps.
Harsh, cold wind would pass through the city, bringing the dryness from the desert.
This town was full of desolation and disrepair.
I was puzzled.
Where were the incomes from the projects working with the other packs? Did Adam pocket them? Was he planning a rebellion? Anyone who thought that developing such a desolate place mustâve been crazy.
It seemed that Galeâs worries were warranted.
There was definitely something fishy going on.
After getting out the car, I was hoping to contact someone to take Elena back to the pack, but Adamâs office sent me a message first.
âDebra Clarkson, report to the office in half an hour.
Any minute Later and youâll have to face the consequences.
â
I was speechless.
I had never encountered a boss who made things difficult for his employee before their first day at work even started.
It seemed that this was going to be more difficult than I expected.
Since I was pretending to be Adamâs new secretary, so as to not arouse any suspicion I had no choice but to obey him and set aside the matter regarding Elena for now.
âBaby, I have work to do.
Iâll be back soon.
Be a good girl and stay in the hotel room, okay?â
âOkay, Mommy!â

Elenaâs little head bobbed up and down enthusiastically.
She was always an obedient child, so I trusted her not to leave the hotel room.
After giving her a few more instructions, I left the hotel.
Then I sped all the way to the mayorâs office building.
The building was surprisingly modern, a stark contrast to the rest of the sleepy town.
In fact, it was a bit ostentatious, with its shiny golden facade and bright Lights.
But upon a closer look, I could see that some of the gold had faded to a dull khaki color, which looked almost comical.
As soon as I stepped foot inside the building, I saw countless photos of Adam mounted on the walls, showing off all his achievements.
I looked around some more and spotted a single, smaller photo of Gale, the real Alpha of the pack, tucked away in the corner of the room with only the briefest caption.
This kind of display⦠Adam didnât seem to respect the Alpha at all.
It seemed that he was extremely obsessed with himself.
After all, no subordinate would dare to do something so blatant.
The staff guided me to Adamâs office.
Taking a deep breath, I knocked on the door and strode in.
âGood day, Mr.
Cooper.
Iâm your new secretary.
â
While introducing myself, I Looked Adam up and down carefully.
He looked just Like the photos.
He had broad shoulders, muscly Limbs, and narrow slits for eyes.
Something about him made him look dishonest and scheming, which made me feel a Little uncomfortable.
