Theresa handed Tania the S–Rank identity card she had taken from the inner base.
“Have you ever seen this before?”
Tania studied the card carefully, her eyes narrowing as she examined every detail. At last, she shook her head. “I don’t recognize it.”
“But its owner knew you,” Theresa said. She recounted everything that happened inside the base–each encounter, every word.
Tania listened in silence. With each detail, her frown deepened, her expression tightening. “This Divine Academy you mentioned–I truly haven’t heard of it. The enemy you described, though I have.”
“Who?”
Clenching her teeth, Tania’s voice sharpened. “Terry, tell me—was that woman ridiculously flirtatious? Did she walk with her pelvis pitched forward, *ss stuck out as if she could hang a bag on it, swaying her waist like a spinning propeller? Like she might take off at any moment?”
Theresa blinked. “The way you describe her… kind of sounds like it.”
“She also has a pair of irresistibly alluring eyes, always teasing, always tempting.”
“The first part, yes. The rest, I can’t say. When I saw her, she wasn’t seducing anyone—she was raging, acting like the world owed her.”
“Gabriella!” Tania spat the name like venom. “It has to be Gabriella!”
“Aunt Tania, who is she?”
“My ex–husband’s mistress!” Tania snapped, fury burning in her eyes. “She’s in my association, always snatching my projects, my investments, my research… and my man!
“She’s constantly scheming, ruining my reputation, undermining my research—even though she never actually succeeds at any of it. Worst of all, she keeps sending harassing messages, as well as nude photos, to my ex–husband!”
Theresa raised an eyebrow. “And how did my ex–uncle respond to that?”
“He? He said the phones got viruses, so he forwarded all the photos to everyone in the group.”
Theresa was stunned. How brilliant!

However, Tania wasn’t finished. “Even after that humiliation, that parasite wouldn’t stop! She kept throwing herself at him, spreading rumors about me–that I cheated, that I juggled multiple lovers, that I had aborted eighteen times.”
Theresa’s brows furrowed. “So… she’s the reason you and my uncle split?”
“Ha! As if she had the power!” Tania scoffed. “My divorce was my own business! But that pest? She’s my mortal enemy. Every time I see her, I take her down.”
Theresa recalled the slaps she’d given Gabriella the day before. Now, they felt entirely justified. “Aunt Tania, I already taught her a lesson yesterday. A few good slaps, on your behalf.”
For the first time, Tania’s anger cracked into a smile. “Terry, you did well. Next time, give her a few more for me.”
“Next time?” Theresa replied coldly. “I’ll kill her.”
There was no way she could tolerate anyone who wanted both her and her aunt dead bouncing around freely.
Just then, Bennie burst into the room, breathless.
“Theresa!”
“What is it?”
“Our naval fleet has made a new discovery!”
Theresa followed him into the office.
Once inside, Bennie pulled up an electronic map for her.
“Weren’t our naval forces sent to the offshore oil fields these past few days, planning to take control?”
“Yes. Did we manage to secure it?”
“No.” Bennie zoomed in on the map. “That offshore oil field has already been taken.”
“Taken by who?”
“This island.” Bennie pointed to an island on the map. “Our fleet found a large number of people there–fully equipped and well–supplied, living at high standards. Defensive walls
