I pondered for a moment before saying, “I think we should let the newcomers participate in the design competition and gain some experience this year. Ava and Mira are both good choices.

“That won’t work, Yura replied, a hint of concern in her voice. “Susan has already challenged our studio. If you don’t step in, the junior designers underneath you won’t be able to handle it. If we lose, our reputation over the past few years will be ruined.”

Susan was the lead designer at Sunsan Studio. Before Leo came on the scene, she had held the title of top designer in the werewolf world. But two years ago, Leo came out of nowhere, defeating Susan in a design competition, and Leo’s studio had been thriving ever since. Susan had been holding a grudge, eager to reclaim her position.

“I see,” I said, rubbing my forehead with a sigh. “Then I’ll try to make time to look into it.”

“Come on, don’t forget your friends just because of Caden’s Eclipse Pack, Yura teased with a playful smile. “Leo’s studio can’t do without its lead designer!”

“Alright, I get it,” I replied confidently, a smile on my face, calm and unruffled. “It’s just Susan. We’ll definitely win!”

Yura let out a sigh of relief and smiled. That’s good to hear. I’ll be waiting for your good news.”

As I was about to continue checking the news, a deep voice interrupted from the doorway. “Who were you talking to?”

I looked up and saw Caden leaning casually against the doorframe. He was wearing a white bathrobe, hands tucked into his pockets. His usual distant, cold demeanor had softened into a more relaxed, homely aura.

I froze for a moment. When had he come in? How much of my conversation with Yura had he overheard?

“Did you eavesdrop on my call?” I raised an eyebrow.

Caden stepped forward, towering over me, his tone playful as he spoke, “I wasn’t eavesdropping. I was just listening.”
