Chapitre 392: The Inevitable

There was a lot on Check's plate after he had that conversation with Jaws. Not only he had to think about his own missions, he had to be accountable for the mistakes that Christina would do.

But he was thankful because after graduation, Christina no longer made mistakes. It was either that she had learned her lessons, or that she had learned her place already.
