Agent A's face was in shifting shades of discomfort. "Don't push me too far," he hissed. "Not only did
you poison me, aiming to cripple me for life, but now you're trying to smear my good name. Are you
hell-bent on wiping me out?"
Aurelia let out a mocking chuckle. "Oh, cut the act. Sure, you've had the work done to look like Raines,
but becoming him is another story. It's no walk in the park to mimic a man's every mannerism and
habit."
At the corner of his mouth, a spasm flickered across Anderson, a last-ditch struggle for survival.
"What proof do you have that I'm not Raines?" he demanded.
Aurelia's gaze turned ice-cold. "Proof? I don't need proof. I say you're not him, and that's that. In the
Stirling family, my word is law."
Agent A flared his anger. "I demand to see the elders of the Stirling family. Christmas is just around the
corner, and they would come to check on me. You can't just play god here."
"I'm here to offer you a chance at redemption," Aurelia said. "Spill where Raines is held captive, and I'll
hand you the antidote."
Aware he could no longer bluff his way through, Agent A retorted, "Do you think I'm a fool? If I spill the
beans, do you think I'd be left breathing?"
"Only by coming clean can you hope to survive. Keep silent, and you're as good as dead. You have a
chance to turn over a new leaf. Help us rescue Raines, and you get the antidote, plus protection."
"You think I'd trust you?" Agent A scoffed.
"You've got no other choice but to trust me. The AK Group won't come for you. They know when to cut
their losses."
Agent A gritted his teeth. "I don't know where Raines is. Only the boss knows."
"Then, you're of no use. Might as well wait for the reaper here," Aurelia stated coldly before turning to
leave.
A sudden fear gripped Agent A. "Wait, give me some time to think."
"I'll come back later," Aurelia said, exiting the room.
Meanwhile, at the Stirling Mansion, William and Nova had arrived for the Christmas
festivities.
Nova eyed the cookies on the coffee table, saliva dripping from her mouth. She crawled over, reaching
out her chubby little hand to snatch a sugar cookie.
William was quick to intervene. "Oops, Nova. You're still a little sprout. You can't have cookies yet.
Here's your teething ring."
He handed her a soft and chewy ring, and Nova grabbed it with less enthusiasm.
Mira laughed from the sidelines. She had been just as greedy as a kid, and it looked like Nova was a
chip off the old block. A future foodie in the making.
"Welcome to the foodie club, Nova," Mira exclaimed with a grin. "When you grow up, I'll take you to all
the best spots."
Though only four himself, he was the picture of a caring big brother, doting over his little sister like no
other.
Nova eagerly sucked on the puree, "Brother, sweet."
"Tasty, huh?" William asked, adoringly stroking her head. His little sister was just too adorable. New All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

"Yummy," Nova affirmed, nodding vigorously before taking another slurp.
Nina rolled her eyes. "That's baby food, Mira. You're way too old for that."
"I'm only six, not old at all," Mira declared earnestly, as if that settled the matter.
