By the time Vera Warner returned to the office, she got another call from the hospital. They told her that Mrs. Pemberton had died from poison, along with her two young children. They couldn't be saved, and the Pemberton family was now in total chaos.
Vera Warner simply responded calmly. After hanging up, she showed no particular emotion.
Sure enough, a call from Ron came in soon after. He praised her, "Vera, you did very well this time. There's another mission for you next month. Be ready for your assignment at any time."
Although she was used to hearing such words, a part of Vera recoiled. 'All I want is an ordinary life.'
"Don't worry, Brother Ron. I'll follow your orders."
Ron paused for a moment on the other end. "We're still expecting your full return. Finish what you need to do. I'll be waiting for you."
