Sawyer had surely figured out that Analise and the others were still in the city center, but he would never expect them to be at the Lordship Estate.


    "But even if Sawyer didn''t hide the fake female here, he''ll definitely bring her over tonight," Scott said with certainty.


    "The message you posted this afternoon has already drawn members from a few alliances here. At the very least, the ones closest to Ironhorn Alliance have sent people over.


    "In fact, this is both a problem and an opportunity for Sawyer. As long as the fake female appears in the Lordship Estate, he can stage an ''idental'' discovery of her and then provide some fabricated evidence..."


    Scott didn''t finish his sentence, but Analise already understood what he meant. Meanwhile, Fiy was grinning like an idiot at Analise''s ears.


    "If you keep standing there smiling like a fool, I''ll take off these tassel earrings," Analise threatened.


    She reached up as if she were about to remove them.


    When they had called Fiy back earlier, he pulled a small gift box from his pocket and handed it to her.


    Analise was pleasantly surprised when she opened it and found a pair of earrings. She had browsed for earrings on shopping tforms before, but none of the designs had felt quite right, so she never bought any. She hadn''t expected Fiy to buy her a pair today.


    Even though the style wasn''t exactly her taste, it was a gift from Fiy, so she put them on.


    Scott even wore a cold expression toward Fiy for a while because of it.


    "Ana, don''t take them off! I''ll stop grinning, alright?"


    Fiy shut his mouth immediately and looked out the window.


    "Listen more, watch more, learn more." Analise pinched Fiy''s ear. "What if someone tricked you when Scott and I weren''t around? You need to be more careful!"


    "Okay..."


    Fiy lowered his head and wondered if Analise was saying he was dumb.


    Well, maybe she had a point. There were plenty of times when he didn''t understand why Scott thought so much about every discussion with other therians. But every time Scott predicted something right, Fiy had to admit that he was impressive.


    "He''s here."


    Fiy''s ears twitched as he whispered.


    Therians had much sharper hearing than regr humans.


    Scott heard it too. The three of them stood quietly by the window, like hunters ready to pounce on their prey.


    Sawyer climbed over the wall and scanned his surroundings cautiously, then he hurried off in a specific direction.


    "I''ll follow him first. You protect Ana," Scott said.


    As a tiger therian, he had a natural advantage in stalking and hunting Tigers were felines, and they were built for silent movement, which was perfect for tracking someone.


    As for Fiy, he was a wolf therian, and his hearing was exceptional. Keeping


    track of Scott wouldn''t be an issue for him.


    The three of them moved in silence, trailing Sawyer one by one.


    Sawyer soon arrived at Wayne''s private courtyard. He moved arge stone in the courtyard, revealing a hidden door near a statue.


    A momentter, an attractive female stepped out and followed Sawyer.


    If Derek were here, he would recognize her instantly because she looked exactly like the robot female he had killed.


    Analise and Scott had already suspected it, but they were still taken aback by how realistic she appeared.


    "No wonder we searched every corner of the Lordship Estate and


    founding. You hid her in the


    darkroom," Wayne said as he stepped out from behind the statue.


    "You! How did you..."


    Sawyer turned around, and his eyes locked onto Wayne in shock.
