Chapter 621: The Slums Again

Having settled everything, Mira, Kael, Aiden, and Lila made preparations to depart the location, their faces displaying resolute determination. Erik watched them, grateful for their support and trust in handling such a sensitive and dangerous mission. 

Mira turned to Erik and Rebecca, her face showing a mix of commitment and something else that hinted at dissatisfaction.

The glance was not lost on Erik, though he didn't fully understand its cause. There was something in her eyes that caused a momentary pause. The look had a hint of jealousy, making it not entirely pleasing.

Since Rebecca arrived, Erik spent a significant amount of time with the beautiful woman. But there was nothing he could do about it; he was trapped due to work. 

"Let's get to work," Mira said firmly, her eyes lingering on Erik and Rebecca. "We'll keep you updated on our progress."

"Thank you," Erik answered, nodding appreciatively. "Be careful out there."
