Melvin hadn't been hfor the past two days, which made Sydney incredibly anxious. She'd chere to get
close to Melvin, but now she couldn't even see him.
Plus, the job Melvin had arranged for her wasn't at headquarters but at a branch office, so she had no chance of

"You had it coming! Who leaves documents lying around their room? | walked in and there they were. If you want
to blsomeone, blyourself for being stupid!" Sydney sneered before turning back to her room.
Sarah and Mia exchanged looks. Sarah asked, "Did you get it all?"

worked.
She set the files on Professor Letito's desk and noticed his troubled expression and vacant stare.
"Professor Letito?" she asked softly, remembering he was teaching the next class.
"What is it?" He snapped back to reality as if waking from a nightmare.
