?Chapter 1060:


    Corrine walked around the ce with no particr direction in mind. After much hesitation and recalling Saul’s warning, Mandy decided to follow her.


    She stayed a few steps behind, moving quietly.


    She watched Corrine’s back, her mind lost in thought.


    Since she’d discovered the connection between Corrine and Vulture, Mandy’s view of her had softened a bit.


    But that didn’t mean she had fully epted Corrine.


    In Mandy’s eyes, Corrine still wasn’t good enough for Nate.


    A woman who deserved to be with Nate should be able to support his sess and stay strong through tough times.


    As Mandy thought this over, Corrine, walking ahead, suddenly came to a stop.


    She stood by the river, almost as though she was waiting for someone.


    Mandy squinted, thought for a moment, and then stepped closer. “Miss Hond, do you need something?”


    “It’s always a pleasure to deal with smart people,” Corrine said, shing Mandy a smile as she nced her way. “Is your boss having a hard time here?”


    Mandy’s eyes widened as she was caught off guard by Corrine’s unexpected question.


    She pressed her lips tight and stayed quiet.


    Corrine raised an eyebrow, her tone t as she asked, “Are you not allowed to answer, or are you just not willing to?”


    The two questions seemed simr, but they carried very different meanings.


    If Mandy was unwilling to answer, it was simply her own choice.


    ?????????? ?????????????? ???? ??????????ν?????????????


    But if she couldn’t answer, it meant Nate had told her to keep quiet. After a long moment, Mandy met Corrine’s gaze. “Miss Hond, you already know the answer. Why bother asking?”


    Her response sounded like an answer, but it actually turned the question back onto Corrine.


    A mischievous smile tugged at Corrine’s lips.


    After a brief pause, Mandy asked, “Didn’t you call the Red me people here just in case?”


    “If I had, they wouldn’t have shown up like that,” Corrine answered, meeting Mandy’s gaze. “But I can’t deny that I purposely let them know where I was.”


    Over the years, Jules had been crucial in helping her live a normal life. She understood that once she reached out to Lone Ranger, her movements wouldn’t stay under the radar.


    Still, Vulture and Hawk had shown up much earlier than she’d expected.


    It proved just how much Red me’s tracking system had advanced in such a short time.


    Mandy, always blunt, couldn’t hold back her curiosity. After a moment’s hesitation, she asked, “Are you good in a fight?”
