“Really?” Fred raised his brow, finally becoming intrigued.
“If I can’t do it, I’ll accept your punishment.” Rhea had to make such a promise to convince him to give
her a chance.
Fred’s expression softened as he nodded. “Fine, I’ll give you another chance. I’ll get someone to bring
you the information later. I don’t care what methods you use or if your stuff works. I just want to see
results.”

She nodded and gritted her teeth.
“Besides that…” Fred turned around as he approached the doorway, looking interested. “Is it not
possible to create an invisibility potion?”
“Well…” Rhea was puzzled because she thought he would forget about it.
“Don’t worry. I’m just asking if it’s possible to make one, even if you don’t have it yet,” Fred added, his
gaze curious. He seemed to be looking forward to it.
Seeing him so, Rhea wanted to say it was almost impossible but dared not. She feared Fred would get
upset and change his mind. She nodded despite herself, saying, “It’s not entirely impossible. I can try.”
“Great!” Wanting her to say so, Fred looked satisfied. “I’m looking forward to your creation then.”
He walked back to Rhea with a much gentler look. “I know you’re eager to prove yourself and confident
of what you can do. I’ve reviewed your records, and your skills are remarkable.
“However, I don’t care about what you did in the past. I only care about what you can do now and in the
future. Do you understand?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRhea nodded and said docilely, “Yes, sir.”
Pleased, Fred patted her shoulder. “You have two days. Don’t keep me waiting.”
“I won’t, Your Grace.” Rhea saw him off respectfully, then sighed before slumping against the door—
even her legs felt weak.
Fred gave the impression of a kind man because he often smiled. Still, he was much scarier than the
fierce-looking “boss.” The latter was suspicious and hot-tempered but was predictable.
After working for the “boss” for a long while, Rhea no longer feared him. Instead, she knew how to
sway him. However, she did not know Fred well. He was also hard to predict, not to mention his status.
Rhea knew she had to impress him to remain in the organization.
