Chapter 210: Indeed Something’s Wrong

(Elena Blackwood’s POV)

Sophia Rivers concealed the unnaturalness on her face and lightly snorted. “I heard you went back to Northern Territory to recognize your relatives. You’re back so soon?”

Her tone carried that familiar air of strained civility. The kind that barely masked the animosity simmering

beneath the surface.

A research technician nearby looked up from her work station. She had clearly been listening to our exchange, probably confirming the rumors of discord between us healers.

I halted before Sophia, my expression unwavering. “You know so much about my affairs. You must have put in a lot of effort behind the scenes, right?”

The accusation hung in the air between us like a blade waiting to fall.

Sophia feigned innocence with practiced ease. She dismissed my insinuation with a laugh that sounded hollow in the sterile laboratory air.

“I really don’t know what ‘Healer Elena‘ means by that.”

I turned to the research technician without missing a beat. “Could you give us a moment alone, please?”

The technician nodded quickly and gathered her materials. She clearly wanted no part of whatever confrontation was brewing between us.

Once we were alone, I shed the pretense of politeness entirely. My tone hardened like steel cooling in winter

air.

“Whether you really don’t understand or not is no longer important. Even if you escape today, you won’t escape tomorrow.”

Sophia’s smile faltered for just a moment. Then she retorted with false bravado.

“You’re not here to warn me, are you?”

I offered no direct answer. The silence stretched between us, heavy with unspoken threats.

Sophia closed the distance between us. She lowered her voice to a conspiratorial whisper that made my skin.
