1 shook my head. Even though I hadn’t known Tammy long, she was so transparent it was
impossible to imagine her pulling something like this.
Still, 1 went to find her.
When | explained the situation, her eyes went wide.
“No way! I definitely handed it in, but...” She suddenly faltered, her face paling.
“But what?”
Tammy lowered her head, embarrassed.
“But halfway there, | ran into your sister... Id seen her looking for you before, and she said she was
on her way to see Professor Martin. She offered to take it for me, so... so I gave it to her...”

The more she spoke, the more she realized how foolish she’d been. By the end, she looked like she was on the
verge of tears.
“She’s not really your sister, is she? I'm such an idiot. | can’t believe | fell for it! What do we do... That was
something important, wasn't it?”
| closed my eyes briefly, rubbing at my temple.
Of all people, | hadn't expected Bailey to make a move-not after seeing what happened to Mariana. But
apparently she wasn’t afraid of dying.
Tammy clutched my sleeve, panicked. “What should we do, Aubrey? Wait-givea little tand I'll track that
girl down. Yes! I'll call him right now!”
“Don’t.” | stopped her. “I already know who it is.”
Seeing her red eyes and guilty expression, | sighed inwardly and reached out to ruffle her hair. “It's fine. I'll
handle it-don’t worry.”
But Tammy still looked ashamed. “It’s all my fault. No, don’t say anything-I'll get my brother involved. He'll
definitely have a way.”
| squeezed her hand and told her plainly, “No. She really is my sister. This is family business, and Ill take care of
it”
Then | smiled-a slow, unsettling curl of my lips.
“After all... disciplining a little sister is a big sister's duty.”
Half an hour later, | found Bailey in the third classroom, pretending to read a pharmacology book. Please. No one
knew better than | did-Bailey had zero talent for medicine. She couldn’t even get through basic herbology
without tripping over herself.
Anyone letting her treat patients would have to be a complete fool.
The moment she saw me, she went stiff. “...What are you doing here?”

Chapter 178 Sister’s Theft
| took a step closer, my smile thin and cold. “Me? I'm here to take back what's mine.”
“What thing? | don’t know what you're talking about. You haven't even been hin ages!” Bailey shot back.
instantly, denying everything.
Her eyes went unfocused for a moment-she was using a mind-link to contact someone.
I didn’t care who she was calling. Whoever it was, if they had my work, they weren’t keeping it.
I met her gaze, my voice low and sharp. “Bailey, think very carefully. If someone steals my work and
tries to release it, | won’t care about family ties. When it’s tto deal with them, | won’t hold
back. This is your last chance.”
Fear flickered in her eyes, but then something hardened there. She gritted her teeth. “I don’t know
what you're talking about.”
Just then, a gamma girl passed by and said in an envious tone, “Bailey, Professor Rowan is looking
for you. He says he’s very interested in your research project and wants to talk.”
Professor Rowan? That reputable senior wolf doctor with a specialty in curative potion research?
My research paper was on a healing potion I'd developed-its effects were ten times stronger than
the best commercial self-healing formulas.
So Bailey had taken my work to impress Professor Rowan?
A laugh slipped from my lips, cold and cutting. “Interesting. Bailey, let’s go together.”
“No!” Bailey’s voice rose in panic, her face turning chalk white.
