Several officers rushed to the door, only to find a line of men in sharp suits. They looked <b>less </b>like visitors and more like hired private security.
“Who are you people? This is a police station! You can’t just barge in here!”
Even the police chief was startled by the noise. He stepped forward when the officers instinctively moved aside for him.
A ck stretch Lincoln pulled up at the entrance. A pair of polished leather shoes touched the ground, followed by tailored suit pants.
“Are you the person in charge here?”
The man standing before them had a few silver strands in his hair. His presence alone made the room go quiet. One nce from him was enough to make anyone’s pulse spike.
The police chief felt a chill crawl up
his spine.
He didn’t recognize this man, and someone with this kind of aura was not someone he would forget.
The station often worked closely with Aetheris officials, yet he had never seen this person before. Someone this powerful–looking–maybe he wasn’t from Aetheris?
“And
you are?”
He didn’t know the man’s background, so he spoke carefully. But he still tried to hold his posture, remembering he was the police chief and everyone here looked to him.
“Moserton. The Reagens.”
:
Aetheris Primal Hospital.
“Jolie was bailed out of the station,” Lyra said as she pushed open the hospital room door, her brows knit tight.
Tess froze mid–scroll on her phone.
“I figured.”

She set the phone aside and narrowed her eyes.
“Her family must have sent someone.”
“Yeah.” Lyra nodded, her expression dark. “And honestly, even after Raven beat her up time, Jolie didn’t look like she was willing to step down. Now that her family hade for her, she’ll only get bolder. If she still wants to cause trouble…”
Lyra hesitated.
The room grew quiet.
“Then I’ll just beat her up again,” Raven muttered sharply from the couch.
It was unclear when she had woken up, but she lifted her fist with a threatening shake.
Lyra twitched her lips and patted Raven’s shoulder. “Raven, violence can’t solve everything.”
She sighed and looked toward Tess, her face full of worry.
Tess stayed calm, lips pressed, expression unreadable. Just when Lyra’s heart began to sink, Tess finally spoke. “Don’t do anything for now. Let’s wait and see how they react. We’ll find out if they really n to let Jolie do whatever she wants, or if they’ll rein her in.”
“But I heard that old man dotes on her, a daughter he had at ater stage in life.” Lyra added quietly. “He gives Jolie anything she asks for.”
Raven frowned.
She was a top hacker, and the moment she learned who Jolie’s family was, she dug into every public record on the Reagens.
Raven might have a fiery temper, but she wasn’t reckless.
“If the Reagens really n to protect Jolie ande after me.” Tess lifted her eyes, a cold glint shing across them. “I’m not some pushover they can do whatever they want to me.”
Her words fell heavy in the room. Raven and Lyra exchanged a look and both let out a small, proud smile.
But then someone knocked on the door.
Raven stood up to answer it. When she pulled it open, she saw a man she had never met before. But his features–something about them felt familiar.

His hair wasbed back perfectly, styled with enough gel to hold a sharp, formal shape.
He smiled and lifted the gift box in his hand. “Ms. Moreno, right? I’m here to visit Ms. Ember.”
Raven’s brows pulled together.
She knew everyone around Tess, but she had never seen this man. Who was he?
Still, she stepped aside and let him in.
“Tess, someone’s here for you.”
The man walked in with polite manners. The moment he saw Tess lying in the hospital bed, his eyes flickered, clearly recognizing her.
Tess stared back with a deep frown.
She had no memory of him.
“Sir, who are you?”
Raven didn’t know him either, yet he had recognized her right away. And he imed he was here for Tess, who didn’t know him at all.
And those familiar–looking features…
“A Reagens?” Tess’s voice dropped, guarded and icy.
At that word, the man let out a smallugh and even pped his hands lightly. “Hahaha. Just like my research said, Ms. Ember really is sharp.”
“That’s right.”
He ced the gift box on the small table.
That simple gesture made both Raven and Lyra tense up at once.
Raven even curled her fist inside her sleeve, her whole posture turning tight like a drawn bow.
“Rx,” the man said pleasantly. “I’m here on behalf of my daughter to apologize to Ms. Ember.”
He smiled warmly, almost too warmly. To Tess, he looked less like a polite father and more like a smiling predator.

“If Mr. Reagen truly wants to show sincerity, wouldn’t it make more sense for Ms. Jolie to stay at the police station and face the consequences?” Tess smiled calmly as she said it.
Cyrus Reagen’s brow twitched.
He hadn’t expected her to be this sharp–tongued.
Cyrus had showed up in person, something he rarely did, and she had the nerve to push back.
