    The moment Samson stepped through the door and saw Sloane there, his tone carried a mix of urgency and frustration. “Sloane, why are you still here? The ckhawk team’s exam is next week, why aren’t you getting ready for it?”

    Sloane froze for a second, clearly not expecting Samson to show up so suddenly.

    Before she had a chance to respond, Jordan had already furrowed his brows, his tone tinged with annoyance. “Mr. Samson, what’s that supposed to mean? Sloane is my student too, how is she wasting her time by being here?”

    Samson let out a cold snort, crossing his arms as he fixed a sharp gaze on Jordan. “Jordan, don’t y dumb. You know exactly how important the ckhawk exam is. If she back by your little side projects, can you afford to take responsibility for that?”

    Jordan’s expression darkened; it was obvious Samson’s words had hit a nerve.

    Just as he was about to argue back, Sloane quickly stepped in to de–escte things.

    “Professors, please don’t argue. I’ve been preparing for the ckhawk exam this whole time, I won’t fall behind. I’ve only been offering some advice for Jordan’s project; it’s not taking up much time.”

    But Samson wouldn’t let it go. His voice stayed firm, even harsh. “Sloane, don’t defend him. The ckhawk exam is tied to your future–there’s no room for mistakes. You should be focusing all your energy on preparing. Everything else can wait.”

    Jordan clearly wasn’t happy, but he also knew the exam was right around the corner–Sloane couldn’t afford distractions.

    Sloane nodded, a quiet breath of relief escaping her chest. To keep the two from starting another fight, she quickly pulled Samson out the door.

    Halfway down the corridor, she spotted Samantha from a distance, heading upstairs with a few ssmates.

    It suddenly hit her–Samantha hadn’t shown up in front of her for quite some time.

    Her gaze drifted to Samantha’s right wrist, and she figured out why she’d been so quiettely.

    Before heading off for the ckhawk exam, Sloane made stops to treat both Applepie’s dad and rk.

    Right after walking out of the Kent residence and getting into the car, Sloane leaned back, ready to close her eyes for a moment of rest. That’s when the driver’s voice broke the quiet, tinged with unease. “Miss, we’re being followed.”

    Sloane’s eyes snapped open.

    She nced at the rearview mirror, and sure enough, a ck sedan was tailing them iat a /isteady distance. biLooks /i/blike isomeone /iidoesn’t /iiwant /iirk /iito /imake it ithrough /iithis/i.

    Almost at that exact moment, two cars shot out from nearby side streets and cut off the ck sedan with perfect timing.

    A sharp screech of brakes sliced through the air as the ck car was forced to a stop. The Kent family’s bodyguards jumped out of their vehicles and swiftly surrounded it.

    One look was all it took–Sloane knew they were people arranged by the Kent family. If someone had been lurking outside their estate, of course, they wouldn’t be unprepared.

    With the tailing car intercepted, two vehicles nked Sloane’s car from front and back, escorting her away.

    The driver, thinking the danger had passed, let his tense nerves rx just a bit. But at that moment, the vehicle that was supposed to be escorting them from behind suddenly elerated, mming hard into the rear of Sloane’s car.

    The violent jolt sent her body hurtling forward; her head smashed into the back of the seat in front of her with a sickening thud.

    “What’s going on?” Sloane shouted, stunned. But before she could gather her bearings, several more cars sped in from all directions, closing in tight, trapping them inpletely,
