While looking through the list of voice recordings, Frank muttered, ” Yes, I don’t think there’s any harm in using our enemy’s tricks for a counterattack. Eva has already been inside their fortress. She knows more clearly where the gaps are. For that, thank you, Miss Connor.”

“So Eva is a good person now? She’s no longer our enemy?” Emily’s eyes widened.

While the others laughed, Ava moved closer to Eva. She embraced her, sighing happily, “Thank you for siding with us. I’m grateful you’re here.”

Unexpectedly, Eva frowned. “Ugh, I don’t need this drama. Did you

forget that I don’t like hugging? This is awkward.” She patted Ava’s arm to get away from her.

Smiling, Ava returned the distance, “Yeah, I know it’s awkward, but we’re worth trying. We’re sisters. We don’t need to fight anymore, Eva.”

in her heart, Louis approached Emily and put his arm around her shoulders.
