“Stop overthinking it. You promised me this favor. If you get it done, we’ll call it even for the first one Matteo said. “I’ll also destroy a third of the evidence I’ve got on your identity.”

“I’ll find a way to get it for you,” Eliza said coolly. “But I won’t ask them directly.”

Then she added sharply, “And I suggest you stop strutting around so openly on campus. You’re going to attract the wrong kind of attention.”

Someone like Matteo had no business being a teacher at this school.

Eliza didn’t care what his real goal was–so long as it didn’t involve her or anyone close to her. The moment it did, she would not let it slide.

Naomi stumbled into a clàssroom in one of the academic buildings and ripped off her synthetic mask.

The sweat had soaked into her wounds, turning the skin pale and raw. Even the grafted skin was starting to peel, covered in blotchy red hives.

She was terrified. How could she show her face like this?

Naomi immediately pulled our

her phone and called her doctor.

The doctor hadn’t heard what had happened yet, but Naomi didn’t wait–she launched into him the second he picked up. “What the hell did you put on my face?! Why does it hurt so bad?! Why is it itching like this?!”

Hearing her panicked tone, the doctor quickly realized she must’ve overused the synthetic skin. “Ms. Naomi! I told you not to keep that stuff on too long–it was bound to cause problems! Why didn’t you listen?”

“I don’t care! My face is ruined, and this is your fault! You need to take responsibility!”

“I’m ordering you to drive over to the school right now and take me to the hospital! I can’t go home looking like this!”

If Nathaniel saw her like this, he’d never touch her again.

The doctor sounded hesitant. He’d already taken his money and left the country for vacation, Now he wasn’t even in Westbrook.

“Ms. Naomi, your face isn’t in any condition for surgery. You need to rest for now. I’ll co thing tomorrow morning.”

Hearing that, Naomi finally calmed down.

sick you up first

Right. She needed to find somewhere quiet to rest. Maybe by tomorrow morning, it would look better.

She hung up and stepped our of the classroom.

Naomi rushed over to him, grabbing him by the collar. “Get me out of here! Now! My face is ruined–hose am I supposed to help you like this??”

Matteo grabbed her chin and lifted her face.

One look at her swollen, scarred skin, and he let out a cold laugh. I only kept you around because you knew too much. I thought maybe you’d be useful. But look at you–completely played by Eliza. You didn’t even fight back. What use are you to me now?”

Naomi’s face turned pale.

“Eliza? It was Eliza?! She and Soren set me up?”

In that moment, it all clicked.

She glared at Matteo, furious. “You knew it was her? And you didn’t warn me? Aren’t we supposed to be partners? My face is destroyed–how does that help you?”

“Eliza digs one little trap and you dive in headfirst. You’re pathetic. Why should I lift a finger for you? Matteo said lazily. “Your face is ruined, and you’re useless to me now. Figure out how to fix yourself. If you can’t. I won’t hesitate to cut you loose.”
