"Of course I want him to get what's coming to him soon!" Shane Schultz said. "But with so much happening lately, I'm getting really worried..."
"It's okay," Summer Thorne comforted him in a low voice. "You haven't been exposed yet. Leo Morgan doesn't know your real identity or why you're close to him. Even if there are consequences from this, I'll bear them alone."
Hearing this, Shane Schultz quickly said, "Miss Thorne, that's not what I meant."
"I know." Summer Thorne had also calmed down. "I know you're afraid of a bad outcome, but this opportunity was so hard to come by. I don't want to waste it, and I'm not willing to wait any longer. Every extra day I have to see him living freely in this world is torture for me."
At that, Shane Schultz fell silent for a moment before whispering, "Me too..."
Summer Thorne added, "If you're really worried, you can ask that person who's been helping you in secret... see what her opinion is. Maybe her guidance will make you feel less lost."
