Caleb leaned in to explain, “I had to Let Carlos in on your power, for the sake of our investigation. Rest assured, he’s trustworthy and won’t breathe a word to anyone.”

Having known Caleb for ages, I was fully aware of how much he trusted
Carlos.
While I used to harbor reservations about Carlos, thinking him slick and unreliable, I had to accept that he was loyal to Caleb and had proved himself capable. Moreover, Carlos had become more composed since dating Sally.

I had no more qualms about Caleb sharing my secret with Carlos.
At Caleb’s words, Carlos pledged his loyalty to me, vowing, “Rest assured, I’ll guard this secret as steadfastly as Caleb himself.
I nodded.
“I’ve already taken care of the video that caused a stir in the gym yesterday,” Carlos declared with unwavering confidence.
“No one is allowed to Look at it.”
It was clear that he intended to protect me.

His gesture warmed my heart, and I said softly, “Thank you.”
“Beep!”
Just then, a loud honk pierced the air, and an opulent black car glided to a halt at the kindergarten’s gate. With swift strides, the driver emerged from the vehicle and rushed to the rear door in a show of respect.
In the next moment, a pair of glossy black shoes materialized before us, promising an enigmatic figure of authority

He had a smooth, balding forehead, and his stout frame was enveloped in a black suit that struggled to contain a substantial beer belly. With his ruddy, round face and peculiar duck-footed gait, he made quite the impression.
Carlos leaned in and whispered, “That’s James Lee, the headmaster.”
My brows shot up my forehead in surprise.

“Gentlemen, why are you standing here?” James approached us with a warm welcome.
“Let’s discuss matters in my office. It’s quieter there, without the constant foot traffic.”
As his gaze turned to me, a condescending smirk curved his lips.
“Ah, you must be Debra Clarkson.”
Before I could react, he added sarcastically, “You’re just a woman.
This is no place for you to meddle. Why don’t you leave and let today’s investigation proceed undisturbed?”
Caleb pulled a long face. “If it hadn’t been for Debra, the children wouldn’t have been able to come to school today. As the headmaster, how can you treat a benefactor with such disrespect?”
