Single Mother of a Werewolf Baby

Chapter 69: The Clip-On Earrings

After a few minutes of contemplation, Eleanor finalized the outline of her next move. However, a pressing

concern continued to linger in the back of her mind... the assassin team. There was a possibility that they might

cfor her today.

After thinking it through once more, she raised her voice slightly, "I need Sebastian here."

She didn’t need to yell. She knew at least one member of her Shadow Guard was always stationed nearby,

watching her silently from the shadows.

Sure enough, only a few seconds passed before Sebastian materialized in front of her like a ghost stepping

through reality.

"Ma’am," he said, bowing his head respectfully.

"Another group of assassins has taken the job the previous party failed to complete," Eleanor said. "I suspect

they might strike tonight. | want everyone aroundmonitored... closely."

Sebastian nodded but remained silent as she continued.

"There's a complication," she added, rising from her chair and walking to the window. "Tonight is the annual

dinner of GMITCC. Many people from the business community will be present. While they themselves won't pose

any threat, the location is a concern. The venue is Manchester Central Convention Complex, and it will be closed

to the public today."

Turning back to face him, she continued, "If the assassins choose to attackthere, the easiest way would be

by disguising themselves as hotel staff. That part worries me. | don’t want to show my abilities to the general

public. But it’s also our opportunity. The staff won't be carrying weapons, and that makes it easier for us to

detect threats. With your abilities, you should be able to identify impostors and take them down before they

make a move."

She moved to her desk and pulled open the bottom drawer. From it, she took out a small black case and placed it

carefully on the tabletop. With a soft click, she unlocked it and opened the lid, revealing several glimmering

accessories inside.

"I've prepared these for your team," she said. "You have four men and two women under your command,

correct?"

Sebastian nodded.

"Then here," she said, picking out the contents. "Four pairs of platinum clip-on earrings for the men, and two

pairs of diamond-studded ones for the women. Don’t worry... no need to pierce your ears. These are all clip-ons.

They're equipped with an intelligent Al communication unit embedded inside. Hold them near your ear, and the

clip will adjust automatically to fit comfortably."

Sebastian leaned closer, intrigued.

"To activate," she continued, "just tap once while wearing them. Tap twice to turn them off. This technology is

one of our company’s latest military-grade inventions. Later, | customized them specifically for werewolf

operatives like you."

She picked up one of the earrings and demonstrated how to attach it. Sebastian, watching closely, followed her

lead and clipped one onto his own ear.

"The Al inside will automatically adjust its frequency, sound output, and microphone sensitivity depending on

your form," Eleanor explained. "Even during werewolf transformation, the device will reposition itself to match

your altered ear anatomy. No loss of connection... no interruptions."

Sebastian's eyes lit up with excitement. "That's... incredible."

"There's more," she said with a smile. "These devices are powered by your own body... through kinetic energy

and your heartbeat. So, no need to recharge them. The effective range is over one mile. Within that radius, you'll

stay connected with your entire team."

She tilted her head. "Can you hearclearly through your earpiece?"

"Yes," Sebastian said, his voice slightly echoing with the crisp clarity of the Al transmission. "But how is the

sound being transferred from the earring?"

"Through bone conduction," Eleanor replied. "The sound travels through your skin and skull bones, leaving your

ears open to ambient sound. And when you speak, even a minimal sound is enough to transmit clearly."

Curious, Sebastian shifted into his werewolf form. Eleanor watched with satisfaction as the earring adjusted itself

instantly, fitting securely to the new shape of his ear. After a few seconds, he returned to his human form.

He placed his right hand over his chest and bowed deeply. "Thank you, Ma'am. This is a remarkable gift."

Eleanor chuckled softly. "This isn’t a gift, Sebastian. It's a tool. A piece of equipment to help you perform your

duty more efficiently. So, don’t thank me... just don’t lose it."

She becserious again. "This item isn’t available on the market. If you're ever in danger of being captured or

think you might lose it, tap it three times. It will self-destruct and immediately sendyour location. I'll cto

aid you."

She reached into the case once more and pulled out another pair. "Oh, and I'll be wearing a pair too. That way, |

can stay connected with your channel during missions."

She showed him a set with a small purple gem on the side. "If you seewearing this one, expect that I'm

already listening or may join the conversation."

Finally, she stood up. "Now, | need to drop Freya off at school. Be ready for this evening."

With that, Eleanor left the study and headed upstairs to wake her daughter.

Downstairs, the mother and daughter duo were greeted by a familiar presence... Ethan. He was already seated

at the dining table, sipping coffee. Freya's face lit up when she saw him.

"Daddy!" she squealed, running into his arms.

After breakfast, the three of them got ready and left for HMIS. At the school gate, Ethan handed Freya over to

Miss Cooper like the previous day. The little girl was overjoyed to find several of her classmates already waiting

and immediately began chatting animatedly with them.

Later, when Eleanor arrived at her office, Teresa met her with a curious smile.

"Boss, another walk-in candidate waiting downstairs," she said.

Eleanor raised an eyebrow.

"Interesting timing," Eleanor murmured.

After reviewing the latest reports from Maya, Teresa, and Lily, Eleanor decided to go ahead with the interview.

As her assistants began to rise from their seats, she stopped them. "Stay. | want you all to observe this

interview."

They nodded and returned to their chairs, adjusting their positions to face the newcomer.

A couple of minutes later, there was a soft knock at the door.

"May | cin, sir?" said a nervous voice from behind the door.

"Cin," Eleanor answered calmly.
