In a breezy tone, Hogan just dropped this hot mess right on my shoulders. Suddenly, it felt like an invisible giant 

squeezing my heart, so tight I could barely the 

When we visited Morgan, me, Hogan and Cecilia were all there. It was hard enough to get the meeting since Hogan was busy pampering Cecilia with her career and leaving me out in the cold 

Now that there was a curveball and things were heading south fast, he was looking at me to 

clean up the mess 

Turned out after all this hustle, I was just the fall guy 

looked like was like chasing

Convincing FreeMan- when we didn’t even have a clue what he looked like- fairy tale

if by some fluke I pulled it off, that was just me doing my job. But if I didn’t, well, we all knew what was coming

And there was Cecilla, ready to throw her hat in the ring. I curled my fingers, trying to claw back some sanity, and said with a hint of sarcasm. Mr. Zade sure has a lot of faith in me.” 

I was obviously talking in opposites. Hogan got the hint and nonchalantly said, Ms. March, aren’t you full of tricks? Alright, this time. I’ll give you plenty of room to show me what your got. One week, I expect to see satisfying results.” 

One week. Not only did Hogan give me a tough nut to crack, but he only gave me a measly week 

The southern part of Meadowbrook was a famous tourist spot, crowded with thousands of visitors every day. Firlding FreeMan there in such a short time was like looking for a needle in a haystack

It dawned on me that Hogan was probably setting me up on purpose, targeting me

Cecilia, seeing the situation, piped up. Hogan, isn’t one week a bit too short? It’s really putting Xaviera in a tight spot

That was quite considerate of her

Hogan looked at me as if he’d heard a joke and said. Ms. March, you feel it’s too much?” 

I gritted my teeth and forced a casual tone, “Fine. I’ll take on the mission.” 

When Wallis heard the whole story, she was livid, This is the time to play dumb or throw a tantrum, for heaven’s sake. Why not act cute with Hogan and save yourself the headache?” 

Tugging the corners of my lips, I replied, You think I’m Cecilia?” 

But the fact that FreeMan stood us up last minute is really weird.Wallis snapped back to reality, pondering, Seems this guy’s got more intel than we thought.”

This just got trickier

No worries, I’ve already infiltrated FreeMan’s fan group. I believe we’ll have new leads soon enough.Wallis reassured me. But it looks like you’ll have to make the trip to Meadowbrook alone

I The company couldn’t run without a boss; if we were both gone, it’d be chaos. I knew then that this time, I had to rely on myself

But charging in blind would get me nowhere: I needed a plan. As I was seriously scrolling through FreeMan’s Twitter, a message suddenly popped up on my phone
