Sloane was called into Mr. Samson’s office–and was surprised to find Marshall already there.

He was sitting on the couch, and the moment she walked in, his face turned cold.

“Sloane, ever since you started school, you’ve completely cut ties with the family. What are you trying to pull? Do you even still consider me your father?” he snapped, his voice thick with

accusation.

Sloane’s expression didn’t waver. She calmly closed the office door, walked over to a chair, and sat down without a rush.

“Ms. Marshall,” she said coolly, “I don’t understand what you’re talking about.”

A faint smirk tugged at the corners of her lips. Her eyes met Marshall’s without hesitation. “Cut ties with who, exactly? Did any of you even bother to get my contact information?”

Ever since she’d moved into the Rivers household, no one had asked for her number. The only person who even gave her a phone was Lena.

Once she enrolled at Stonebridge University, of course they had no way to reach her.

Marshall’s face stiffened at her words, and his voice grew louder, tinged with anger. “Watch your mouth! I’m your father!”

Sloane rolled her eyes in open contempt and was about to say something even sharper–when Mr. Samson cut in.

“Sloane, don’t be impulsive. Talk things out properly,” he advised gently.

Mr. Samson had always appreciated Sloane’s brilliance and didn’t want rumors going around about her being disrespectful to elders.

Marshall quickly picked up the cue. “Mr. Samson, thank you for all your hard work with this child, She’s a bit difficult. I’m here to request a short leave of absence to take her home for a bit.”

“Sure, go ahead,” Mr. Samson agreed easily.

Sloane didn’t want to go back to the Rivers house, especially not with Marshall–but she knew this wasn’t a trip she could avoid. So she said nothing more.

Before leaving, she turned back and said, “Mr. Samson, I sent you the test paper draft. Let me

know if it needs any revisions.”

Mr. Samson’s eyes lit up. “That fast? I’ll take a look soon.”

When she walked into the Rivers home, the whole family was already gathered in the living room. Even Samantha, cast still on her wrist, had returned.

“You’re finally back,” Samantha beamed, her voice sugary sweet. She sounded like they’d always been close. “Mom and Adrian have been asking about you every day. We’ve all missed you so much.”

Sloane dodged her attempt to touch her and said bluntly, “I hate pretentious scum. Stay away from me–unless you want to lose your other hand too.”

Samantha’s smile froze. A flicker of venom flashed in her eyes, but she quickly replaced it with a pitiful expression.

“How can you say that? I really missed you…” she said, forcing a few tears for good measure. Her performance was practically Oscar–worthy.

Adrian had had enough. He jumped up and pointed at Sloane’s face. “That’s enough! Samantha’s done nothing but treat you well, and you repay her like this? You’re unbelievable!”

Sloane let out a cold laugh. “You can keep the fake kindness between yourselves. Don’t bring that garbage near me.”

Marshall slammed the table. “Enough! Stop arguing! Sloane, I didn’t bring you back to fight.”

Sloane made herself comfortable on the couch, lounging like she owned the place. “Then what do you want?”

Marshall ignored her tone and tried the sentimental approach. “Sloane, we have good news. Conrad’s nanobot thrombolysis project has made a major breakthrough,” he said, his voice rising with excitement. “If the technology makes it to clinical use, it could help countless patients and more importantly, it could save the Rivers family. Maybe even push us higher than ever.”
