With that thought, Harriet regained her confidence and nodded, “Alright, I’ll help. Could you please let my parents go first?”

Warren looked a bit uneasy and glanced at Curtis. Curtis shrugged it off, waving his hand dismissively. “Just keep it down,” he muttered as he focused on Quinlyn’s data analysis.

Finally freed, Maurice and Tina hurriedly scrambled to their feet, ignoring the dust and dirt covering them as they rushed over to Warren, whispering in shock, “What kind of spell has Quinlyn cast on Curtis? Why is everyone listening to her?

“She must be a monster! I thought she’d left the Anderson residence and head for the border for good, but now she’s tangled. up with Curtis. Mr. Sullivan, we need to figure out a way to expose her true colors fast!”

In their eyes, everything Quinlyn had achieved was thanks to the Anderson family’s resources. Watching her benefit from it all felt worse than a knife to their hearts.

Warren had always thought they behaved quite petty, and he’d only been polite because of Harriet. Now that he saw their true nature, he couldn’t help but feel they were out of their minds.

It was absurd to think a general and his high–ranking officers could be fooled by a kid. Besides, the current situation was clearly beyond a businessman’s reach. Maurice and Tina’s request to stir up trouble only struck him as foolish or malicious.

“Let’s put that aside for now. My company’s survival hinges on Harriet. He cleverly shifted the topic, leading Harriet over to another computer. “Quinlyn’s too busy to help, and fixing the feed from the monitors is a straightforward task. I’m sure you can handle it, right?”

Fixing the feed? Harriet stared blankly at the screen, feeling a bit lost. After all, she was still in the early stages of learning at the tutoring center, she only knew how to create simple web pages.

But since Warren said Quinlyn could do it, she didn’t want to back down. Without thinking much, she nodded and said, “Okay.”

At that moment, the professors who had searched in the mountainous were urgently called back. They had just taken off their anti–magnetic suits, drenched in sweat and hoarse from shouting. As they approached, they stopped in their tracks, wide–eyed at the sight of Harriet.

Unable to hold back, she boasted, “Mr. Sullivan
